Meet the Founder
The former child therapist behind Kerigami.

Founder of Kerigami — former child therapist
I'm Welbr DosSantos. Before building Kerigami, I worked with children professionally as a child therapist — and at home, I'm the dad of a son with ADHD.
I saw the same pattern in both places: rigid chore charts and consequences created friction, not follow-through. Kids with ADHD don't lack ability — they need motivation that works with their brain, not against it. So I built a system based on behavioral psychology that creates real motivation: clear tasks, immediate feedback, and rewards that matter.
It transformed my own family first. Now it's helping other families do the same.
Why Kerigami exists
Most chore apps chase engagement with in-app games and dopamine tricks. Kerigami is different by design: no fluff, no distractions — just clear cause and effect that helps kids build executive function, independence, and confidence. Every article on our blog is written from that same place: practical, evidence-informed help for real families.
Kerigami: Kids Chore Chart is available on iOS, Android, and the web.
