About this app

There are nights when we've tried everything.

We've explained, we've negotiated, we've raised our voices, we've apologized. And we go to bed feeling like we didn't understand anything that just happened.

The Detective App was born from those nights.

It's the mobile version of My Detective Notebook, the method used by tens of thousands of French-speaking parents. The principle can be summed up in one sentence: we stop looking for the right answers, we learn to ask the right questions.

Two ages, two ways to investigate

From 0 to 3 years old, your baby can't answer yet. So you're the one conducting the investigation. The app helps you observe and decode: cries, signs of tiredness, the needs hidden behind a tantrum, disrupted sleep. You learn to read your baby instead of guessing.

From ages 3 to 12, the roles are reversed. You're no longer the detective; your child is. You ask the questions, they search, they find. And what they discover on their own, they keep.

That's the key difference: we're not trying to get a child to obey, we're supporting a child capable of thinking for themselves, even on days when we're not hovering over them.

What you'll find in the app

Investigations for everyday situations: tantrums and meltdowns, sleep, crying, sibling rivalry, fear of the dark, pre-school anxiety, teasing and bullying, self-confidence.

Questions to ask, word for word and adapted to your child's age.

Pitfalls to avoid, because a well-intentioned but poorly worded discussion can end in two seconds.

Fill-in forms directly in the app to keep track of your observations over the weeks.

And for the 0-3 year old section, all the reading material is also available in audio format, recorded by me, for those days when reading a text isn't an option.

What's it based on

Not on intuition. Each investigation is based on research in developmental psychology and the principles of nonviolent communication. No miracle promises, no moralizing: we all learn as we go.

Who's it for

For parents of children aged 0 to 12. For those who have read twenty books on positive parenting and still don't know what to say at 8 p.m. on a Tuesday evening. For those who want to pass on something different from what they received.

Good to know

The Detective App is a parenting support tool. This is neither a diagnostic tool, nor psychological support, nor a substitute for professional medical advice.

What’s new

Deux corrections signalées par des lectrices.

Tu peux de nouveau choisir plusieurs questions dans une enquête : la sélection de la fiche précédente restait en mémoire et bloquait les suivantes.

Et les cases à cocher du cahier des parents se cochent enfin, et restent cochées quand tu reviens.
