Person feeding baby: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A person with a dark skin tone holding a nursing bottle to a baby in their arms. The figure is shown in profile, cradling the infant close while offering nourishment.

Usage Context

This emoji is frequently used to discuss parenthood, childcare, or the daily realities of raising an infant. It serves as a visual shorthand for bottle-feeding or nursing, and is often used alongside 🍼 or 👶 to emphasize family life or the newborn stage.

History

This character was added in Unicode 13.0 in 2020 as part of an effort to broaden emoji representation for diverse family roles and parental care. The ability to modify the skin tone was a later addition to ensure users could accurately reflect their own identities while sharing personal milestones.
