Threatened with CPS Call for Feeding Baby Curry with TikTok Mom Graca Walters
#80: Can you imagine being threatened and bullied on social media because you chose to feed your baby recipes from your own food culture? Well it happened to Graca Williams on TikTok and she’s here to talk about it!
Graca is a stay-at-home mom who grew up in the Congo and now lives in New York. She does baby-led weaning with her daughter Zuri and she made major headlines last week after posting a video on TikTok of the lamb curry recipe she made and served her baby. People were SO CRUEL in the comments of the lamb curry video...one troll even threatened to call CPS on her!
I wanted to chat with Graca to learn more about the types of foods she makes and feeds Zuri, as well as her small business creating seasoning and spice blends and sauces that incorporate her favorite Caribbean and African food flavors. And I also wanted to share this amazing mom’s story about pushing her baby’s palate beyond boring baby food and to let her know there’s a whole big baby-led weaning community out here that really supports and encourages the work she is doing and the foods she is feeding!
If you’re ready to raise an independent eater and prevent picky eating then let’s get started learning about baby-led weaning together! Subscribe, rate and review the podcast here.
