Child Development & Wellbeing Check
Worried about your child's development, behaviour, learning or wellbeing? Start here.
A gentle, evidence-informed questionnaire — about 5 minutes, matched to your child's age.
Free for parents, always · a screening tool, not a medical diagnosis.
Many parents carry a quiet worry for months before saying it out loud. If that's you — you're not overreacting, and you're not alone. This check helps you put words to what you're seeing, and points you towards a clearer understanding of what to do next.
It does not diagnose any medical or mental-health condition — and it never will.
Results should not be used to confirm or rule out autism, ADHD, or any other condition.
"Every child grows at their own pace. Noticing early is not labelling — it's loving."

Important
IndiaKidsLab is not a medical provider. This tool is for educational screening and care navigation only. It cannot diagnose or rule out autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety or any other medical or mental-health condition.
We are a technology platform for parent education and care navigation — we do not practise medicine and we do not provide treatment. Questions here are IndiaKidsLab parent-observation items, not a validated diagnostic instrument, and no copyrighted questionnaire has been reproduced or re-scored. If you specifically want to understand formal autism screening for a child aged 16–30 months, ask us about the recognised M-CHAT-R/F pathway. It must be administered and scored by a qualified professional under its own rules; we do not reproduce or re-score it here. M-CHAT-R/F © Diana Robins, Deborah Fein & Marianne Barton.
If further support is worth considering after a guidance conversation, we will explain why before sharing any options. In distress or emergency, call Tele-MANAS 14416 or KIRAN 1800-599-0019.
This check is free to use, and always will be.
