The Cocoon Editorial Team

Cocoon summarises public guidance in plain language and links to the supporting source. Each guide shows when its sources were checked and the country or region they cover.

Sources include public health agencies, hospitals and professional organisations. A citation identifies the basis for general information; it does not mean that the source endorses Cocoon or has validated its personalised estimates.

The current guides have not been independently clinically reviewed. Source checks are editorial checks. For a decision about your child's health, use your clinician's advice and the original local guidance.

What this byline identifies

This is the publishing organisation responsible for Cocoon's summaries, not an individual clinician's profile. Cocoon also makes the tracker linked from these pages, so it has a commercial interest in the product. The editorial policy explains source selection, AI assistance, corrections and that relationship.

Trace a claim to its source

Start with the source attached to the point you want to check. Confirm the guidance region and read the original page in context. A source-check date records an editorial check; an article-update date can also reflect a changed example or explanation.

• Four-to-six-month milestones links separate CDC checklists rather than treating the whole age band as one deadline.
• Vitamin D instructions separates general source information from a product and dose that need professional confirmation.
• The growth calculator identifies its reference data, supported ages and interpretation limits.
