MamaBear. Always there.
Parents complete the eCheck in a supported preferred language. MamaBear automatically translates the structured information into English for the clinician report, while preserving the parent’s original responses. Families can then share the secure eCheck through patient-portal medical messaging, secure email, or secure text messaging—so the care team can see what happened at home, not just hear about it later.

Your care team reviews the English report
The clinician receives the translated structured report, video, and timeline for remote review or follow-up care.
Not just a snapshot — a timeline.
A single eCheck captures how your child is doing right now. But recurring symptoms unfold over time — and so does the pattern that helps a clinician understand them. MamaBear lets parents submit follow-up eChecks across an illness or symptom episode, building a clear record of how the child progressed and responded to treatment.
Was the fever coming down? Was breathing easier or harder? Did the child start eating and drinking again? This longitudinal record gives the clinician context a single visit can’t — so when they review it, they can recognize the pattern behind a child’s recurring symptoms and decide what it means.

Baseline captured
Parent submits symptoms, a short video when relevant, fever, exposures, and activity context — assembled into a structured summary.
Clinician reviews asynchronouslylater
Early response captured
Did medication help? Is breathing settling? A follow-up records whether the initial treatment made a difference.
Medication response recordedlater
Progress recorded
The record captures whether symptoms improved, stayed the same, or recurred — building the trajectory across the episode.

The clinician sees the pattern
With the full episode in front of them, the clinician can see what a single snapshot might miss and decide what the recurring pattern means.
Recognition, by the clinicianI made multiple ER visits with my son because I couldn’t prove to our pediatrician what I saw at home. MamaBear lets you capture symptoms as they happen — so your provider can see the pattern and get your child the right care sooner.
MamaBear reduces subjectivity and recall bias by giving clinicians structured information and video from the home episode. It may support more informed follow-up decisions.
