ParentPal: My Parenting Expert

ParentPal™ is an all-in-one personal parenting coach from Teaching Strategies® in partnership with the creators of Baby Einstein. The app provides tools and a daily roadmap to take the guesswork out of parenting. It assists you in providing the right daily experiences to help your children from birth to age 5 reach their key developmental milestones and thrive. Parenting is hard enough without feeling like you need to become a child development expert—or an organizational wizard mastering various methods to track feeding, growth, health, and first-did-it moments. As the leaders in early childhood and pre-school curriculum for childcare centers, pre-K programs, and school districts across the country, we’ve done that work for you. We collaborated with the creators of the award-winning Baby Einstein, consulted with pediatricians, and analyzed the guidelines of more than 20 national organizations. The result is a super-engaging and easy-to-use parenting coach and family engagement resource. Parents are born the day their babies are. But unlike other worthy challenges you might have tried before—like training for a race, losing weight, or cooking chef-inspired meals—it’s a scary time to learn on the job. That’s because 80% of the human brain is formed by age 3, and it’s largely dependent on the quality of stimuli and experiences provided by parents and caregivers. Each day, ParentPal replaces the frantic Internet searches and worry about what’s “normal” and what to do next with confident engagement and research-based guidance…plus tracking tools, memory books, personal trends, and easy, one-handed usability.
