Clinically validated to have a positive impact in children and their families
Thanks to its proven effectiveness, Kairos offers new perspectives for taking care of the well-being of the youngest, thus strengthening family bonds and promoting healthy and positive development.
Study with more than 200 families
In collaboration with UQTR, an 8-week clinical study validated the positive impact of Kairos on the development of the child's autonomy and on the parenting skills developed thanks to the virtual parental coach.

A clinically validated positive impact
The clinical study demonstrates an impact greater than a "very strong effect" on all three groups present in the study (ADHD, ASD and Neurotypical).
There is a significant improvement in the routine score (2.75 at the start to 3.52 at the end) inspired by the Before-School Functioning Questionnaire (BSFQ; Wilens et al., 2010).
A clinically validated positive impact
Being a parent of a child with a neurodevelopmental disorder involves certain challenges and can affect the family unit. Our studies have demonstrated a significant difference from the start of the Kairos intervention.
Impacts on the child's executive functions.
Significant differences were observed in BASC-3 scores between baseline and endline.
THE BASC-3 allows the evaluation in 175 questions of evaluation of the behavior and the emotions of the child.
