The short answer

Your family plans in one place

The problem

A change discussed in several messages can leave the final date, time or agreement unclear.

How Best4Family helps

Create a request in the shared Parent Space with the children, dates, place and a clear summary. The other parent can respond. Open the request afterwards to check its status and saved details.

How it works

Get organised in a few steps

  1. 01

    Choose the shared space

    Open Parent Space from the module overview and select the space you share with the other parent.

  2. 02

    Describe the requested change

    Tap the plus and choose Care swap. Include the affected children, dates, handover time, location and a clear summary. Check Reply deadline before sending.

  3. 03

    Check the response

    Use Waiting for you or With co-parent to find requests that need a response. The available actions depend on the status and which parent needs to act.

  4. 04

    Review the accepted plan

    Choose Completed or All, then tap the request title to expand its details. Check Accepted and the dates, time, meeting point and children. Use Request change if the plan needs updating.

If something looks wrong

The request is still open.

Open it and check who needs to act next. A sent request is not the same as an accepted change.

Less coordination, a clearer view

Bring your family plans together.
