Infants: Bottle logging

You can report a specific amount to inform parents how much their baby has consumed.

To do this:

  • Home → Overview → Room → children Checked In

  • Select a child by clicking on their photo, select multiple, or click Select all children

  • Click Status on the right hand side

  • Click Meal

  • A new window will open where you can select the meal type you are recording.

  • Once you have chosen the meal you're adding, you can select a previously entered food (or in this case, a bottle),

    • If the item is not set automatically through a Meal Plan, you can type in the food you're adding in the 'Search' bar, then click 'Create and add [the name of the food/ bottle you've just added]'

  • To enter a specific amount, click on the three dots next to the food you've selected, then click on 'Use exact amount' (as below)

  • The slider changes to a text box, where you can enter an amount, and the unit of measurement

  • Next enter the time the bottle was given in the box at the bottom of the screen

  • Hit Save

    ✨ The meal logged, including amount, will show on the child's profile for parents in real-time:
