What is HealthQuest?

The Problem

  • 1 in 5 kids struggles with unhealthy habits leading to long-term physical and mental health consequences.

  • Many families don’t know where to start or how to build consistent habits.

  • Existing apps often focus only on weight or adult wellness, leaving kids behind.

Why HealthQuest is Different

  • Kid-first design: Age-appropriate quests, avatars, and incentives.

  • Built by pediatric health professionals: Evidence-based strategies.

  • Whole-family approach: Tips and tools for parents, too.

  • Focus on habits, not weight: Encourages joyful movement, curiosity, and mindful eating.

What Our Users Think

  • “Health Quest is an amazing way to help children develop a healthy relationship with food and exercise. The lessons prioritize mindfulness, goal setting, balance and finding joy in movement and nutrition in a fun and encouraging environment. Learning and reprogramming the behaviors that contribute to childhood obesity are difficult tasks to accomplish in a healthcare office setting alone. Health Quest is an excellent tool that will take these conversations to the next level and encourage lifelong habit formation and growth!”

    - Jay

    - Sasha (7 years old)

    Beta Tester

  • “Health Quest is an opportunity to address not just childhood obesity but teach kids and parents about healthy eating habits and lifestyle habits. By addressing factors that influence their eating habits such as sleep, exercise and mental health it is a more global framework to achieve wellness and set up good behaviors that will benefit our patient not just now but also as they go into adulthood. “

    - Bharani

    MD, Pediatric Gastroenterologist

  • “As a pediatric gastroenterologist who routinely encounters children with obesity, disordered eating, and associated mental health issues, I am excited about the launch of this product. A healthy journey requires much more than the intermittent visits we often make to our doctors’ offices. Longitudinal, goal-directed skill acquisition is the foundation for teaching children what it means to be healthy, both physically and emotionally. However, our healthcare system is not currently set up to deliver this to children in an easily accessible manner. The team at Health Quest is aiming to fill this gap. They have developed robust curricula focused on serving children with these needs. Their thoughtful approach to addressing some of the most debilitating behavioral patterns in obesity and disordered eating is sure to greatly benefit my patients and their families.”

    - Anees

    MD, Pediatric Gastroenterologist

  • "I think it’s cool that you can change the Dragon’s color, and the lessons are really short. The lessons are like 2-5 minutes. They teach me a lot, but I don’t feel like I’m learning. I’m mainly just trying to get coins to make my Dragon look awesome, and before I know it, I’ve actually learned something!"

    - Anonymous (12 year old Male)

  • "As a registered dietitian, I know that the habits we form in childhood shape our entire lives. Health Quest makes learning about nutrition not just educational, but fun and impactful! The interactive quests captivate kids' imaginations while teaching them the importance of healthy eating. It's thrilling to see such an engaging tool that turns the journey to lifelong wellness into an adventure. Learning is truly best when it's fun and impactful, and Health Quest nails it!”

    -Taraneh

  • "As a healthcare professional, I'm always on the lookout for innovative solutions that can effectively address the multifaceted challenges of childhood obesity. Health Quest’s user-friendly and engaging interface makes it accessible for both children and parents, and gamification elements motivate children and make the journey toward healthier habits enjoyable. I also love that the app includes a feature for parents to track their child’s progress and receive tips for supporting their child's journey, which can foster a collaborative effort in achieving health goals. After evaluating its features and potential impact, I am impressed by its holistic approach and excited about its potential to make a meaningful difference in children's lives."
