Free 2-minute ADHD check
Free ADHD Test for Your Child
Does your child start everything and finish nothing, need instructions three times, or run on a motor that never switches off? This free 2-minute check looks at the attention and hyperactivity signs clinicians consider for ADHD, and shows whether your child's are worth a closer look.
- Starts homework, chores or play, then drifts off before finishing
- Easily distracted, or needs the same instruction several times
- Always on the go, fidgety, or cannot wait their turn
- Bright and capable, but somehow nothing gets done
How often is this true for your child?
Starts lots of tasks or activities but rarely finishes them.

What this check looks at
This check is built around the two areas the DSM-5 describes for ADHD, inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. The full GiraffeLens screening adds a structured parent questionnaire, an optional teacher questionnaire (because clinicians look for the pattern in two or more settings), and a check of the learning and memory skills that can look like ADHD but aren't, so you start with the full picture.
Common questions
Is this an official ADHD diagnosis?
No. ADHD can only be diagnosed by a qualified clinician, usually using parent and teacher rating scales together with your child's history. This is a screening check: it tells you whether the signs are strong enough to be worth a professional conversation.
Does ADHD look different in girls?
Often, yes. In girls ADHD is more likely to look like daydreaming, disorganisation and anxiety than hyperactivity, so it is missed for years. This check includes the quieter inattentive signs, and the full screening looks across attention, learning and wellbeing together.
What does the full screening add?
Free to start and $49 to unlock the full report, it adds a structured attention questionnaire, an optional teacher view, and screening of cognitive and learning skills, with an instant report and PDF you can take to your GP, paediatrician or school.
