Free parenting plan template.
A parenting plan is not about dividing a child. It is about giving them two homes that run smoothly, so the small stuff never lands on them. Answer plain-language questions and build a clear, printable plan to bring to a conversation or mediation. No sign-up.
Everything a thorough plan should hold.
Work through it at your own pace. The builder assembles your answers into a clean document as you go, covering:
- The parents, the children, and where they live
- How the big decisions get made
- The regular parenting-time schedule
- Exchanges and transportation
- Holidays, birthdays, and special days
- School breaks and summer
- Travel, passports, and moving
- Communication and records access
- Health, school, and shared costs
- Childcare, new partners, and family
- Belongings and routines between two homes
- How to change the plan, and signatures
The parts most free templates skip.
A vague plan causes friction later. This one prompts you on the details that basic templates tend to leave out.
Right of first refusal
Who gets the first call when a parent cannot be there during their own time, before a sitter.
If a parent moves
Notice and a conversation before a move that would reshape the whole schedule.
Taxes and costs
Who claims the children, and how uninsured medical and activity costs get split.
Staying in touch
How the children reach the other parent, and how both homes share school and medical records.
Travel and passports
Notice for trips, itineraries, and who holds the passports.
When you disagree
A simple step, talk, then mediation, before anything reaches a courtroom.
From a blank page to a plan.
- Answer the questions that fit your family. Skip anything that does not.
- Watch your plan build itself, in plain language, as you go.
- Print it or save it as a PDF to keep, share, or bring to mediation.
This is a template to help you write down what you both agree on, not legal advice. What makes a plan enforceable varies by where you live, so check what your area requires and have it reviewed if it needs to hold up in court.
