Summary

This study tests whether a voice-based program called Talk Parenting, delivered through an Amazon Echo Dot, can help parents of children ages 3-5 improve challenging bedtime and morning routines. About 184 families will either use the program right away or wait 6 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in children's sleep, behavior, and parent stress levels.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Talk Parenting Program (voice-based app delivered via Amazon Echo Dot)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give parents a simple, at-home tool to make daily routines smoother and less stressful for the whole family.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with no blinding, so results may be influenced by expectations. The app may not work for all families or situations.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 184 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Jul 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Apr 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

3 to 90 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Referred by a participating agency * Child 3-5 years old who lives with the parent at least half time * The primary parent in the home (typically the mother but not always) * Speaks English * Has access to a computer, tablet, or mobile phone at home * Access to high-speed internet at home is desired but not required. The project will cover internet costs for a small number of participants if needed. The participating agencies all serve families who are low-income and/or experiencing economic hardship, stressful family relationships, children's behavior problems, or household instability; thus referred families will be experiencing one or more of these risk factors for an at-risk family environment. Exclusion Criteria: * Families of target-age children with a developmental disability severe enough that the child cannot speak or follow simple directions will be excluded * Families of target-age children whose needs are beyond the scope of Talk Parenting will be excluded
