I have had basically the same idea, after feeling the problem myself as a parent of young kids. There is so much garbage on Google. Social science is always going to lack the consensus of a hard science, but we can do better than content farms that have assembled articles from freelancers who probably don't have children and are mustering up advice that's barely common sense. I hope for your success!

I didn't pursue the idea in any meaningful way. My idea was basically expert advice codified into a flow/tree, available on demand through a mobile app. E.g., my kid is behaving badly, so I can go to the app, it asks me the questions my expert would ask me, I easily relay information back to it and receive helpful suggestions (how to control my own temper, how to interpret kids behavior, etc). Bite-sized stuff that you can use in the highly urgent/desperate moments parents find themselves in from time to time.

I bet your company, if successful, would be well positioned to make that at some point in the future. There are some tricky questions there, both in terms of effectiveness and ethics, about using an AI-powered chatbot instead of an actual expert. The experts are still needed but whether we're close to approximating human expert delivery of this type of advice with technology is an interesting question! Again, best of luck and I'll check you guys out.
