The Observant Mom

Edit: I did hear back and learned the app covers 18 months - 5 years. Whoops! I did not read the details when purchasing, I just went off of fellow mom reviews. Thankfully, there is a ton of helpful info my almost 3-year old - and on her worst days, I can look at her calendar and see what’s going on. I can’t see anything for our youngest! He is 2.5 months old, and his calendar is blank. I reached out via email, but never heard back.

For those who experience a cliff of understanding when other baby milestone and development leap guides end at 18months this fills the void. It’s much more detailed and really helps me understand my child. Sometimes the skills and examples are very specific and don’t seem to match what is going on with my child but the descriptions are such that I can see what his version is.

I have found the developmental tracking to be very helpful in raising my youngest son. I appreciate the work the creator has put into this.

I am so thankful for this app! The timing of my child's calmer times and more intense/difficult times are SO accurate. Like eerily accurate. It’s very useful. It helps me respond more compassionately when I remember that she's having a hard time because her brain is working on big developmental leaps. I seriously schedule things like photoshoots or trips for times when she'll be in a more sunny/easy period! The insight that this research provides into what skills my child is working on are fasci

The app itself is really cool! I like the calendar format for seeing the information, however I thought the app would involve some tips and tricks for dealing with difficult times. The app is really just the same as the website, which is free..
