They seek a solution to simplify their lives while ensuring their children’s growth and self-awareness.

Finding cost-effective rewards to encourage good behavior.
Behavior Awareness
Helping special needs children understand and reflect on their behavior.

Effective Communication
Real-time updates and feedback between parents, therapists and children. Our custom web and mobile solution focuses on using technology to enhance parenting, child development, and behaviour management through daily routine analysis, motivational rewards, and real-time communication features
Daily Routine Management
Carrotology’s feature of assigning “Carrotines” allows parents to set up daily responsibilities with a one-time setup.
This creates a schedule that children can follow, simplifying the process of routine management.
Real-Time Communication and Feedback
The app facilitates instant messaging and real-time notifications, enabling parents to communicate with their children promptly. Features like awarding bonus crowns and sending notes of encouragement foster a supportive environment.
Motivational Rewards System
Carrotology provides a library of pre-populated rewards and digital coins, from items to activities, which parents can choose from or customize.
This helps in motivating children without incurring high costs, as parents can select rewards that fit their budget and preferences.
BehaviorSync for Self-Awareness
BehaviorSync teaches children to be mindful of their actions through a gamified approach.
The app’s zones (Bonus Zone, Reflection Zone, Flex Zone, and Learning Zone) guide
children in understanding the consequences of their behaviour, promoting self-reflection and goal-oriented actions.
Flexibility and Adaptability
The Flex Zone prepares children for unexpected changes, helping them adapt to new situations like school trips or family emergencies. This ensures that children remain resilient and flexible in their routines.
1. Improved Routine Adherence
Parents reported that their children consistently adhered to daily routines, reducing stress and increasing family harmony. Anger and stress issues have been minimized in special needs children.
2. Enhanced Communication
The real-time feedback mechanism strengthened the parent-child bond, as children received immediate recognition and guidance whilst therapists knew the child’s behaviour history.
3. Cost-Effective Motivation
Parents found the rewards system both effective and economical, leading to sustained motivation among children without financial strain.
4.Greater Self-Awareness
Children became more aware of their behaviours and their impact, leading to more goal-focused actions and improved behaviour.
5. Increased Flexibility
Children developed better adaptability to changes, reducing anxiety and improving resilience.
