Educational parental control for parents of children aged 6–12 and digital wellbeing | Nami Kids

Why Nami Parents

Modern parents are juggling countless responsibilities, making it hard to monitor every aspect of their child's digital activity.

Children today consume thousands of pieces of online content, making it hard for parents to choose what's constructive.

Today's fast-paced digital world makes it harder to motivate children toward meaningful learning.

Educational parental control for parents of children aged 6–12 and digital wellbeing

Screen time management for children aged 6–12 and digital wellbeing

One of the most common concerns for parents is screen time: how much is too much? And how do you stop the smartphone from becoming a daily battleground? Nami Parents helps you set clear rules around schedules, duration and time of day, turning the screen into a tool that serves the family.

The focus isn't just "how long" but how the time is spent: thanks to educational features and guided breaks, the device becomes an ally for growth rather than an enemy to fight. This is the heart of digital wellbeing.

See how Nami works from the child's side on the For kids page, and read more about balanced screen time.

Cyberbullying, online safety for children and the whitelist approach

Nami Kids uses an active safety approach: rather than simply blocking known dangerous sites, it works with a whitelist of educational, age-appropriate content. This reduces the risk of exposure to cyberbullying, hate speech and inappropriate material.

Parents keep control over which apps and sites can be used, while the system helps detect suspicious behaviour and signs of distress. The goal isn't to spy — it's to prevent risks and step in promptly when needed.

In the frequently asked questions you'll find practical advice on discussing cyberbullying and online safety with your child.

Digital family agreement and non-invasive parental monitoring

Nami Parents is designed to support a digital family agreement between parents and children. Instead of monitoring in secret, you can agree on the rules together: when the phone is used, for how long, which apps can be installed, and what to do when something feels wrong online.

The app offers non-invasive monitoring tools: you see trends, activity summaries and key alerts, without reading every single message. This strengthens mutual trust and helps your child develop independence, knowing they can count on you.

Digital citizenship for primary school children (ages 6–12)

With Nami Kids and Nami Parents you support your child's development of digital citizenship: respect for online rules, privacy management, recognising reliable content and awareness of risks. These are skills aligned with school guidelines and European frameworks like DigComp, adapted to everyday family life.

The app's features help prepare your child for secondary school and a more independent use of social media, working today on small steps: asking permission before sharing, not responding to aggressive messages, and asking for help when something feels unsafe.

To get started you can take the digital test and compare the available plans, or read our in-depth articles on education and digital citizenship.

Digital citizenship and wellbeing: guiding without intruding

From control to digital wellbeing

Parents aren't looking for a tool that simply blocks or counts hours: they want a partner in their children's digital growth journey. Nami Kids fills this space: digital wellbeing and non-invasive guidance. The goal isn't surveillance for its own sake, but progressive trust and the child's independence, within a protected environment.

Discover how the app works on the For kids page and in the family guide.

Family agreements and quality screen time

Research shows that how children use devices matters more than time alone. Nami Kids encourages a digital family agreement: clear rules, dialogue and quality content. Nami's pedagogical pauses and stories turn screen time into a moment of learning and calm, rather than overstimulation. It's support for modern parenting: monitoring tools that respect the relationship and the child's growth.

To get started: take the digital test or check the plans and pricing.

Proactive safety and digital citizenship

Beyond protection from risks (cyberbullying, inappropriate content), Nami Kids aims at digital citizenship: helping children navigate online consciously and responsibly. The app combines proactive safety and a focus on online safety for children (automatic detection and protection) with educational content that fosters critical thinking and a balance between digital and real worlds. For parents this means less worry and more peace of mind, knowing their child's device is protected and that screen time can also be constructive.
