Birch sends you one daily WhatsApp message โ a specific, doable thing to try with your child, based on their age, school, and what they're working on right now.
Starting with a small group of families. No app to download.
The problem
"My daughter said 'duh' instead of the letter D. I had no idea if something was wrong."
Parent of a 4-year-old, bilingual school
"His teacher said he's struggling to focus. I don't know if I should be worried or wait."
Parent of a 6-year-old
"He's switching schools next year and I don't understand the new curriculum at all."
Parent preparing for a school transition
How it works
Age, school year, languages spoken at home and at school. Takes two minutes. No app to download โ just a Telegram or WhatsApp conversation.
At the time that works for you, Birch sends one specific activity โ doable in five minutes before the school run. No lists. No reading. Just one thing.
See something you're not sure about? Just ask. Birch knows your child's age and school context and gives you a real answer โ not a Google result.
Over time, suggestions get more specific. Birch remembers what you've tried, what's worked, and what your child is working toward.

At this stage, your daughter is building phonemic awareness โ hearing the individual sounds in words. Try this before school: say a word slowly ("sun"), then ask what sound it starts with. Two minutes. No pressure, just curious.7:05

Not at all โ that's actually correct. Phonics programs teach letter sounds before letter names by design. "Duh" is the sound the letter makes, and that's what matters for reading. She's doing exactly what the method intends.9:42
What you get
One specific, doable activity tied to what your child is working on. Arrives before the school run. No prep required.
Ask anything. Get a real answer grounded in child development โ not generic search results or parenting forum anxiety.
Birch understands multilingual home environments and schools. Advice that accounts for both languages, not one.
Birch knows what children are typically learning at each school stage โ British, IB, Spanish national and more.
School switch coming? New methodology? Birch gives you a timed action plan so you're ready, not catching up.
Lives in the messaging app you already use. Telegram or WhatsApp. No account, no dashboard, no friction.
Who it's for
Birch is for parents of children aged 4 to 8 โ the highest-leverage window in early education. The years when parent involvement matters most, and good information is hardest to find.
It's especially useful for bilingual and multilingual families, and parents at international schools navigating multiple curricula and languages at once.
You don't need to be an education expert. You just need five minutes in the morning and the willingness to try one thing.
We're launching with a founding group of families. Spots are limited.
Free for founding families. No app. No commitment.
