“My 8-year-old was forgetting Hindi she'd learnt from her nani. After two months on Namaste Buddy she's chatting away — even correcting my grammar!”

“The Bollywood mode had my son hooked immediately. He's now asking to practice every morning before school. Absolute game changer for our family.”

“We tried Duolingo but it felt too gamified and surface-level. Namaste Buddy feels like an actual conversation. Worth every cent of the annual plan.”
Is my child's data safe?
Absolutely. We comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and international COPPA standards. We never sell data or use it for advertising. Parents have full rights to view and delete all data at any time.

Namaste Buddy is designed for children aged 5–15 who are heritage Hindi speakers or want to learn conversational Hindi. Scenarios are tagged by age range so your child always gets age-appropriate content.

Do I need to enter a card to try Buddy?
No — the free tier is genuinely free and no card is required. Your child gets 2 roleplay scenarios, the daily journal, Word of the Day, and basic progress tracking forever, no expiry. You only enter payment details if and when you choose to upgrade to premium. If you do upgrade and change your mind, our 14-day refund window covers every charge.
Can I switch between monthly and annual?
Yes. You can upgrade from monthly to annual at any time and we'll pro-rate the difference. Switching from annual to monthly takes effect at your next renewal date.
How much can my child use Namaste Buddy each week?
Buddy is designed around healthy weekly practice — about 35 minutes of focused conversation per child per week. Research on language learning consistently finds that short, regular sessions beat long marathons, and the cap aligns with Australian eSafety guidance on screen time for children. Kids can spread the time however suits them — five days a week, weekends only, or anything in between.
