MyAddi First Steps
Just diagnosed? Take the first steps together.
For children who’ve just been diagnosed with a chronic illness, and the parents finding their feet beside them. Simple guides, a place for feelings, and help when you need it.
For your child
Their own space, in their own words.
Guides in their words
What’s happening in their body, their medicine, hospital visits and school, explained simply.
Feelings check-ins
Happy, worried, cross or tired. Every feeling is okay, and there’s a place to say it.
Help close by
Who to tell when they don’t feel right, and that asking for help is brave.
For you
The first weeks, one step at a time.
You don’t have to learn everything in one night.
The first week
Breathe, then plan: your care team, daily medicines and sick-day rules.
Talking to your child
Honest, age-right words, and how to let them keep some control.
School and emergencies
A care plan that travels with them, the signs to watch for, the steps to practise.
Looking after you
Parents need support too: where to find it, and people who can help.
Private from the start
Everything stays on your phone.
No account and nothing sent anywhere. Later, you’ll be able to link it to MyAddi as your child grows.
We’re starting with Addison’s and adrenal insufficiency, with more conditions to follow.
Supportive education only, not medical advice. Your child’s care team’s plan always comes first.
Coming soon.
We’ll email you when MyAddi First Steps is ready to download.
