Stop Thumb Sucking

Help your child work toward stopping thumb sucking with a gentle, parent-led plan. STS helps families understand triggers, prepare comforting alternatives, and build progress through positive reinforcement. START WITH YOUR CHILD'S REAL ROUTINE Complete a thoughtful assessment covering age, frequency, awareness, motivation, common situations, and comforting replacements. STS uses those answers to create a practical 21-day starting plan focused on one useful trigger at a time. BUILD SMALL, REPEATABLE WINS • Follow one clear daily mission • Prepare a replacement before a common trigger • Use a private signal instead of public correction • Praise the switch and protect your child's dignity • Treat setbacks as information, not failure NOTICE PATTERNS WITHOUT SHAME Log a thumb-sucking moment in seconds, including what was happening and how strong it felt. The progress view helps you notice patterns across bedtime, tiredness, car rides, boredom, big feelings, and other routines. There are no fragile streaks to lose. PARENT COACHING FOR HARD MOMENTS Use the parent coach for calm, framework-based guidance about bedtime, setbacks, motivation, and relatives who may need help following the gentle plan. Coaching supports behavior routines and does not provide medical or dental diagnosis. OPTIONAL REMINDERS AND SYNC Enable local reminders for your family's routine. Core program information works on the device, and an optional parent account can synchronize progress across supported devices. PRIVATE BY DESIGN STS does not ask for a child's photo, school, street address, precise location, or full legal name. Parent account and program deletion controls are available in the app. STS is a behavior-support tool for parents and guardians. It does not diagnose or treat dental, speech, sleep, skin, or medical conditions. If you notice changes in your child's teeth or bite, or have another health concern, speak with an appropriate health professional.
