Abstract
This study reports a feasibility randomised control trial (RCT) of the Oliiki parenting app with 79 parents of children aged 0-6 months in the UK. Results showed, while controlling for pre-test scores, parents who were randomly allocated to the Treatment Group and used the Oliiki parenting app had significantly higher parental self-efficacy, after the 4-week intervention period, compared to the Active Control Group. Partial correlation analyses indicated that higher frequency of self-reported use of the Oliiki parenting app was associated with greater parental self-efficacy outcomes. This evidence establishes proof of concept that the Oliiki parenting app can have significant benefits on parental self-efficacy in the first 1000 days of child development.
