The problem

You Googled it. Now you're more scared.

“High fever toddler.” 11pm. Suddenly everyone has an answer:

Google
14 million results
too much
Facebook moms
"It’s meningitis."
too scary
Family WhatsApp
"Give Panado and wait."
too vague
Your neighbour
"Rush to casualty."
too urgent
Your child
Fast asleep on the couch.
meanwhile…

And there you are at 11pm, trying to work out who to believe.

The problem was never too little information. It's knowing what actually matters.

How it works

A handful of questions. Ninety seconds. A clear answer.

Here's how PediCheck thinks through three of the most common middle-of-the-night moments.

“My 18-month-old has a fever of 39.2°C.”

Monitor at home

A fever she can fight tonight.

39.2°C is a real fever, but with no red flags and good hydration, this looks like her body doing its job.

Watch for tonight
  • Drowsy or hard to wake
  • Refusing all fluids
  • A rash that doesn't fade

“She's been vomiting since dinner.”

Manage at home

Hydration is the focus.

No green vomit, no severe pain, still keeping small sips down. Likely a viral tummy bug she'll ride out.

Start with
  • 5–10ml oral rehydration solution every 15 min
  • No solid food for now
  • Recheck every 30 min

“He fell off the bed and hit his head.”

See a doctor now

This head bump needs eyes tonight.

He vomited twice and is hard to settle since the fall. After a head injury, that combination isn't safe to wait on until morning.

Who built this

Built by paediatricians who've seen too many late-night panics.

PediCheck is created by the paediatricians at Atlantic Children's Practice, doctors who are mothers too. We've sat on the other side of these late-night moments, with our own children, more times than we can count.

Every decision pathway is written by our paediatricians and reviewed by an independent clinical bench before it ever reaches you. It's not Google. It's how we'd think through it ourselves.

Built by paediatricians, and mothers
