What is the Baby Check app?
If your baby is under six months of age, you can use the Baby Check app to find out if they need to see a health professional.
The app includes 17 simple checks you can do if your baby is showing signs of illness. Each check tests for a different symptom and, when completed, the app will let you know if your baby needs to see a health professional, giving you peace of mind in your pocket.

Do people find the Baby Check app useful?
The Lullaby Trust's Baby Check app is such a good idea, as many parents worry about when to seek medical support. It will save so many lives. No one wants to sit for hours in A&E with their little one if it's not necessary. This app helps reassure parents when things are okay, and hopefully reduce the strain on NHS resources. I'm so glad the app is free, and easy for parents to understand.

I found the baby check app really helpful with my little one. Fortunately, I didn't need it often, but it's definitely worth having if you're a first time parent.

It’s a great app which I usually recommend to prospective and new parents during antenatal and new birth visits.
