For parents whose baby stays with a nanny or grandparent

Know how baby's day went, without texting the nanny all day.

Your nanny or grandparent taps ✓ when the day goes to plan and writes only what changed. At pickup you read one short summary: feeds, naps, diapers and anything unusual.

Demo uses a sample baby, no sign-up. The app is $34.99 once for the whole household, with no subscription.

The Handoff Sheet's 'day at a glance' screen: a timeline of sleep, food and care, with milk, sleep, feeds and nappies compared with the usual week

Twelve texts by 4pm, and you still don't know how the day went.

Texting interrupts the person looking after your baby, and a paper notebook never makes it to your desk. The Handoff Sheet gives you the whole day in one place.

Before
Did she nap?
How much did she eat??
yes
Which one, the nap or the bottle 😅
Any fever after the vaccine?
sorry was busy, she's fine!
After
HANDOFF · Friday 6:00 PM Caregiver: Dana R. Feeds: 3 of 4 as planned · 11.5 oz Sleep: 2h 20m across 2 naps Diapers: 2 (1 dirty) Changed: Nap 2 at 12:30, was 12:00 “Slow to settle, overtired from the short morning nap.”

How it works

Most baby trackers ask the caregiver to log every bottle and every nap. Caregivers stop after a week. The Handoff Sheet asks only about what was different.

1

Write the usual day once

Set your baby's normal feeds, naps and meals. Start from a newborn, infant or toddler routine and adjust it.

2

The caregiver confirms or notes changes

Each item gets ✓ (as planned), ~ (changed) or × (didn't happen), plus a line of notes if needed. That's the whole job.

3

You read one summary

A written handoff note is ready at pickup, and you can check the sheet from work any time during the day.

Paper log, tracker app, or The Handoff Sheet?

A paper log is easy to fill in but stays at home. A tracker app reaches your phone but asks the caregiver to log everything.

Questions parents ask

Does my nanny or grandparent need to make an account or install an app?

No. You give them a join code. They type it once into their phone's browser and they're in: no account, no password, no app store.

How much does it cost?

$34.99 once for the whole household, with no monthly subscription. You can try the full demo free before you buy, and the printable nanny daily log is free.

Which phones does it work on?

Any phone, tablet or computer with a modern web browser: iPhone, Android, Windows or Mac.

Can I track more than one child, or have more than one caregiver?

Yes. Each child gets their own routine and sheet, and anyone you give the join code to (nanny, grandparent, partner) can log and read the day.

What ages is it for?

Newborns, infants and toddlers. It comes with starting routines for each stage that you adjust to your own child's day.

Does it work without signal?

Yes. The sheet keeps working offline and syncs as soon as the phone is back online.

What if I lose the join code, or it gets shared?

Enter your licence key again and you get the same code back with everything still in it. If the code gets out, replace it from Setup: your history moves to the new code and the old one stops working.

Who can see my child's log?

Only people who have your household's join code. There are no public profiles and nothing is shared.

See a whole day in 30 seconds.
