For sitters

A link from the parents, for a few hours.

It opens without an account, shows you what you need first, and ends on its own.

How it works

Five things, in order.

  1. Open the link

    It works in your phone's browser. There is no account and nothing to install. The link lasts 4, 12 or 24 hours, whichever the parents chose, and they can end it earlier.

  2. Say who you are

    The link asks for your name. If the parents made it for you by name, it expects that name. Your name is recorded with every entry you make.

  3. Read the brief

    Medical and emergency information comes first, then a note from the parents if they left one.

  4. Log as you go

    Bottle, Diaper, Temp and Note, and start or stop Sleep. If a save fails, the error is shown and your entry stays on screen so you can try again.

  5. When the link ends

    It stops opening. If something happened after your last saved entry, tell the parents so it can be added.

What you see

What someone who arrived an hour ago needs.

Not the whole history. The latest feed, diaper, sleep and temperature, the buttons to add to them, and the list of what you logged yourself.

The latest facts

When the last bottle was, how much, and how long ago. The last diaper. Whether the baby is asleep now and since when.

Usual gaps so far

The middle value of the gaps already recorded, such as Between feeds · 2h 40m. It describes what has happened. It is not a time the next one is due.

Example values.

Your entries

Everything you saved on this shift, in order, so you can check it before you hand back.

What the parents see

Your entries, on their phones, as you make them.

Each one is marked Guest / sitter with your name, in the log and in every report. The parents' full record stays theirs; the link shows you the part of it that belongs to your shift.

For parents

Links are created in the app, from the Report screen.
