What the Parent Interview Looks Like

Learn what to expect during the Parent Interview, how voice input works, and what kinds of questions Kidaro will ask.

The Parent Interview is a guided, voice-based conversation about how your child approaches learning at home. It takes approximately 15 minutes.

What Will I Be Asked?

The Parent Interview asks about patterns you have noticed in everyday life, including:

  • How your child reacts to new tasks

  • How your child maintains attention

  • How your child responds when something feels difficult

  • How your child follows multi-step instructions

  • How your child stays motivated and engaged

  • How your child reacts to mistakes, feedback, or frustration

There are no right or wrong answers. Answer based on what you usually notice rather than trying to choose the response that sounds best.
​

Your answers provide the everyday context Kidaro uses alongside your child’s experience to create the Learning Profile. The Learning Profile brings these perspectives together to show patterns and practical next steps, not grades or diagnoses.
​

Starting the Parent Interview

Before the interview begins, Ada, your Kidaro guide, will walk you through a short setup.
​

The first screen introduces Ada and checks that you can hear her. Tap I can hear you to continue. If you do not have sound or would rather type, you can switch to text mode instead. Ada will then guide you through a few short instructions before the microphone setup.
​


Next, Kidaro will ask for access to your microphone. When your browser asks for permission, choose Allow while visiting the site or Allow this time. Do not choose Never allow, since Kidaro needs microphone access for voice input.
​


Once access is enabled, Ada will run a quick microphone check. You will be asked to say something while a live audio indicator shows that your microphone is working.
​


After the microphone check, you will reach the ready screen. Ada will remind you to grab some water, silence your phone, and start when you are comfortable. Tap Start now, 15 minutes when you are ready.
​

If you prefer typing, or your audio is not working, you can switch to text mode from this screen as well.
​


Once you tap Start, the Parent Interview begins. Speak naturally and follow the instructions on screen as you move through the questions
​

Do I Need to Prepare Anything?

No. You do not need school records, grades, or notes from a teacher.
​

It may help to think about recent learning moments at home, but you can answer each question as it appears. Choose a quiet place where you can speak comfortably without interruptions.
​

What Happens When I Finish?

Once the Parent Interview is complete, Ada will guide you to the next part of the process. Your child will interact with the Kidaro guide through a conversation and short play-based activities.
​

Kidaro then combines both parts to create your child’s Learning Profile.
​

Next: Continue to the Child Interview when Kidaro prompts you to begin.
