Built by one family, opened to yours

Our paper chart kept dying in week three. We rebuilt it around the reasons our own week fell apart.

The family behind it

Sly Gittens writes KinHuddle's practical guides and works on the product.

Molly Gittens built it with him around what their own family needed: one missed day is forgiven, Kid view can show one thing at a time, and the grown-ups are on the Board too.

KinHuddle is not advice from a parenting institution or a clinical service. It is one family's product, opened to other families. When our writing makes a recommendation, it explains the reason and should still be useful with paper and a marker.

What KinHuddle is

KinHuddle is a web app for family routines, milestones and shared rewards. It runs in a modern browser and can be installed on a home screen. New account creation is currently offered from the United States and Canada.

Children do not create accounts or provide contact details. They can use Kid view on a signed-in family device, and a habit they tick is saved to the family record. Grown-ups create and control the family account.

What it is not

KinHuddle does not assess, diagnose or treat anything. Its milestone information is informational. It is not a custody tool, a private messaging service, or a separate record for each household. When grown-ups choose to share one family Board, they see the same routines, check-ins, points and rewards.

How the public guidance is written

The writing starts with a moment a grown-up recognizes, then explains why it happens and what to try. It does not use invented statistics, testimonials or urgency. Sly is named on each article he writes. Help pages are maintained from the product's current behavior, and the privacy page describes what the code actually saves.

Corrections, questions and data requests go through the stored forms, where a real person reads them. We aim to reply within two working days.
