Medical & AI disclaimer.

Fledge provides general parenting guidance and developmental activity suggestions based on established child development research (Montessori, Reggio Emilia, AAP and CDC milestone guidelines). However:

• Fledge is not a healthcare provider.
• AI-generated content is not a medical diagnosis or treatment plan.
• Suggestions are not a substitute for professional advice from pediatricians, child psychologists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, or any licensed healthcare provider.

The AI advisor uses large language models which can sometimes:

• Generate incorrect or outdated information.
• Miss nuances specific to your child's situation.
• Present general guidance that may not apply to everyone.

Always apply your own judgment as a parent. You know your child best. If something doesn't feel right, trust your instincts and consult a professional.

Consult a qualified professional immediately if:

• Your child shows signs of significant developmental delay.
• You observe regression in previously mastered skills.
• Your child experiences persistent behavioral, emotional, or physical concerns.
• You are worried about your child's safety, mental health, or wellbeing.
• Fledge's consultant recommendation engine flags a concern.

All suggested activities should be performed with adult supervision. Adapt activities to your child's age, abilities, and comfort level. Stop any activity that causes distress, injury, or discomfort. Fledge is not responsible for injuries or adverse outcomes from activities.

Materials and allergens: many suggested activities involve everyday household items (food, craft supplies, plants). Check ingredients and materials for potential allergens (peanuts, dairy, gluten, latex, art-supply pigments) before proceeding. Choke-hazard items (small beads, buttons, coins) are not appropriate for children under 3.

Water, heat, and outdoor activities: never leave a child unattended near water. For any cooking, fire, or sharp-tool activity, an adult handles the risky step. Check sun exposure, heat index, and local air quality before outdoor play.

Fledge tailors suggestions based on profile details you share, including special needs. However, our AI is a generalist, not a specialist in autism, ADHD, speech delay, or other developmental conditions. For children with a diagnosed condition or under a specialist's care, treat Fledge's suggestions as a starting point and defer to your therapist, pediatrician, or special educator's guidance.

Parenting is hard. If you're struggling with postpartum depression, anxiety, or burnout, please reach out to a mental-health professional — Fledge is not a substitute for that care. In India, the Vandrevala Foundation helpline (1860-2662-345) and iCall (9152987821) offer free, confidential counselling.

Fledge lists child development consultants for your convenience. While we verify credentials to the best of our ability:

• Consultant information is self-reported and may change.
• Fledge does not guarantee specific outcomes from consultations.
• Your consultation is a direct relationship between you and the consultant.
• Report any concerns about consultants to support@fledge.co.in.

We strive to provide accurate, up-to-date information. However, child development research evolves constantly, and AI models can occasionally produce statements that look plausible but are inaccurate ("hallucinations"). Fledge makes no warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness, or currency of any information provided. Cross-check anything that feels important with an authoritative source.

Fledge is built primarily for Indian families and reflects activities, foods, and social norms common in India. Adapt suggestions to your own family's culture, dietary preferences, religious practices, and local climate. Fledge is not prescriptive — you are.

Fledge may reference third-party resources, articles, or tools. We do not endorse or take responsibility for third-party content, products, or services.

By using Fledge, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this disclaimer, and agree to use the service at your own discretion.
