Parents trust us with decisions that matter to their families. This policy explains how we research, test, write and update everything on Parently Guide.
Our standards
- Helpful first: every guide must answer a real question parents ask and leave them able to act.
- Tested, not copied: how-to guides are based on our own hands-on testing, with our own screenshots.
- Accurate and sourced: facts, figures and recommendations link to reliable primary sources such as official health bodies, government agencies, academic research and the companies that make the products.
- Clear and practical: plain language, short steps and no unnecessary jargon.
Health and safety topics
We are not doctors, and nothing on this site replaces professional advice. Where a guide touches on health, development or safety, we summarise official guidance and link to the original source so you can read it yourself.
Keeping guides up to date
Apps, devices and settings change often. Each guide shows the date it was last checked, and we review our most popular guides regularly. If something has changed before we catch it, please let us know.
Corrections
If you spot an error, contact us through our Contact page. We review every report and correct genuine mistakes promptly, noting significant changes in the article.
Use of AI tools
We may use AI tools to help with research, outlines and drafts. Every article is reviewed, fact-checked, tested and edited by a person before it is published, and a person is always responsible for what we publish.
Independence, advertising and affiliates
Parently Guide is supported by advertising and may earn a commission from some links. Advertisers and partners never decide what we write or recommend. Read our Disclaimer for details.
