A free, evidence-based symptom checker designed to help parents understand their child's behavior — and know when to talk to a doctor.
Not a diagnosis. Not a substitute for professional advice. Just a clear, caring first step.
We ask about behavior at home and school — things you already know and notice every day.
Your answers are scored against established ADHD indicators, organized by symptom type.
We'll tell you whether to monitor, seek a screening, or request a full evaluation — and why.
Maybe your child struggles to stay on task. Maybe their teacher has raised concerns. Maybe you've Googled "ADHD signs" at midnight and still aren't sure what to think.
This checker doesn't replace a doctor — it helps you walk into that appointment informed, prepared, and confident in what you've observed.
Questions adapt to your child's age and developmental stage.
Covers inattentive, hyperactive, and combined presentations — not just the "bouncing off the walls" stereotype.
Download or email your report to share directly with your pediatrician or school.
No account needed. Nothing stored. Your child's information stays yours.
No. Only a licensed clinician can diagnose ADHD. This tool helps you recognize patterns and decide whether to pursue a professional evaluation.
