• Weight can be entered in kilograms or pounds, and height in centimetres or inches
• Results are displayed as risk level of becoming obese – High, Medium, Low
• Simple advice is given on healthy eating, physical activity and parenting tips
• Links to an external website for further information
• Current weight is displayed as a z-score
Medical advice should be sought if there are concerns about an infant’s weight.
