Alternating custody schedule: clear organisation for the children
In alternating custody, the hard part is rarely the principle but the details: who picks up whom, which activities this week, which belongings must travel. A shared schedule prevents oversights and misunderstandings.
Even and odd weeks, once and for all
Famelyo Plus's schedule handles recurring activities “every week”, “even weeks” or “odd weeks”. You enter the arrangement once; the calendar then shows the right week automatically.
Pickups (who, what time, where) appear on the day and trigger a reminder.
Share the essentials, keep the rest private
The other parent or a loved one can be invited with the “loved one” role: they see the calendar, pickups and lists, but not the budget, documents or health records. Each household stays a separate space.
- Note the things to hand over in the event (“swimming bag”, “school notebook”): they show up in tomorrow's plan.
- Add your area's school holiday dates to plan ahead for long breaks.
Frequently asked questions
Do both parents need to use the same Famelyo household?
Not necessarily. One parent can invite the other as a loved one in their household, or each can display the other's calendar through the private subscription link, read-only.
Does Famelyo replace a custody agreement?
No. Famelyo is a practical organisation tool; it doesn't replace any legal document or court decision.
