How it works
A home and school behavior chart, in one calm place
The teacher fills in the day. You check in after dinner. Both of you can see what’s getting easier, compared only with your child’s own start.
One school day, in order
During the school day
The teacher fills in the chart
One face per subject as the day goes: Smiley, Straight or Frown, the way they’d mark the paper card. A note when something stands out.
When they’re ready
The card comes home
When the teacher taps Send, the card is in the app: every subject, one good moment and what helped. You get one notification, not one for every subject.
After dinner
Your calm minute
Tap Yes, Mostly or Not today for each goal your child is working on, as many as they have. Add a note if something stood out.
Over the weeks
What’s getting easier
Progress compares your child only with their own start. Patterns show once there’s enough to go on; until then it says “Too early to tell”. No scores, no streaks, never other children.
Goals
Goals that fit your child
Pick from suggested goals or write your own, as many as your child is working on. When a goal is met, mark it and add the next; past goals keep their history.
Your child’s team
Everyone who helps, on the same page
Your child’s other parent joins free. Invite teachers and school staff when you’re ready; inviting them is part of Plus (see What will it cost?). You choose what each person sees.
Private by default
No ads, and we never sell your data. Nothing is shared until you invite someone. You choose what each person sees, and removing someone ends their access right away.
