About - tio health

The story behind tio

tio was founded to support parents during the first years of their child’s life – when symptoms cause uncertainty, development raises questions, and medical help isn’t always immediately available.

We combine medical expertise with clear language, smart technology, and a deep understanding of what parents need in everyday family life.
