Education via smart mobile phone and mobile health applications is a key element in e-learning. For the first time and in cooperation with occupational therapists and Health Information management specialists, an applied educational smart phone-based program was designed and implemented for mothering handling of children with cerebral palsy (CP) by caregivers. For this purpose, InteliJIDe application version 13 for android was used. This application includes sections of acquaintance with children with CP, principles of motor development in children with CP, feeding, dressing, toileting, bathing, sleeping, lifting and carrying, playing, anticonvulsant drugs, and about us. It is free and can be installed on smart mobile phones and Android tablets via Bluetooth. This application is an important step in easy, fast, and free access of families of children with CP to daily care information. It is hoped that this software resolve some of these families’ problems.
