Track and Celebrate Milestones
Notice skills without turning development into a race, save what you are seeing with the app's three milestone choices, and understand how those updates can shape future guidance and songs.

Open Milestones without looking for a score
From Home, choose Milestones. EchoMom shows skills around your child's age, why each one matters, and gentle ideas to try. Children develop at different rates, so use this as a way to notice change, not to compare your child with somebody else's timeline.
- Choose the correct child on Home.
- Open the Milestones section.
- Read Why this matters and Try this next for a skill that is relevant today.
- Ignore the rest until you have the attention for it.
Use the three progress buttons
The mobile milestone card does not have a free-text note field. It gives you three clear choices so an update takes seconds and still reflects what you are seeing.
- Tap Not seeing it yet when the skill is not showing.
- Tap Starting to show when you have noticed an early or occasional attempt.
- Tap Seeing this often when the skill is happening consistently enough to mark complete.
- Open Completed milestones if you need to review or reopen a saved milestone.
Add the story somewhere designed for it
For the detail you want to remember, answer a Memory spark question on Home or tell EchoMom what happened in your own words. That gives the agent and song system personal context without pretending the milestone card has a note box.
- Tap EchoMom in the bottom navigation.
- Say, for example, “Remember that John took his first steps toward the dog and laughed.”
- Use that memory in a manual song request whenever you want.
What to remember
- The Milestones screen is an age-aware guide, not a pass-or-fail checklist.
- Use Not seeing it yet, Starting to show, or Seeing this often to match what you actually observe.
- EchoMom may use milestone progress as context for guidance and automatic songs; it does not generate a song for every tap.
When typing is too much
Ask EchoMom about the next care moment.
Say what happened, ask about recent care, or get help finding the right next step without digging through screens.
