The Nanny & Babysitter
Handoff Binder
Set it up in an hour. Use it every time you leave.
The first time you leave your child with a new caregiver, your brain runs through everything they need to know — the allergies, the bedtime routine, what to do if something goes wrong.
This binder puts all of it in one place. Printed, organized, sitting on the counter. So you can walk out the door without a 3-page text or a phone call mid-dinner.
Everything your caregiver needs — organized across 5 sections
Emergency info that’s actually findable when it matters — hospital, doctor, allergies, and medications on one page. Not buried in a text chain. Includes an emergency numbers card sized to laminate and stick to the fridge.
Medical history your caregiver can act on, not just read. Doctor and specialist directory, full health history, insurance details, and allergy documentation — everything needed if something goes wrong.
A guide to your child so the first hour isn’t a guessing game. Preferences, quirks, communication style, comfort objects, and what makes them feel safe with someone new.
Step-by-step checklists your caregiver can follow without asking you. Morning, nap, afternoon, and bedtime routines — laid out so every transition goes smoothly.
Meal instructions that prevent the “what can they eat?” panic. Approved foods and snacks, foods to avoid, mealtime preferences, feeding schedule, and a grocery and supplies list.
The details that always get forgotten until they matter — house rules, authorized pickup list, primary contacts directory, and daily communication log pages. Print extras and keep them in the back pocket.
For every family that needs backup
Starting with your family for the first time. This gives them the structure and clarity to feel confident from day one — without needing to call you for the basics.
They know the kids, but things change. New medication, new routine, new food rule. This keeps everyone aligned without a 10-minute briefing every visit.
Date night, work trip, or hospital stay. Set this up once and walk out the door knowing your caregiver has everything — and won’t need to call you for anything.
Hear it from parents who use it
“Filled it out in like 45 minutes… Zero calls — first time that’s ever happened.”
“Left it with her day one. She still flips back to it. Haven’t had to repeat myself once.”
“I just left them the binder — routines, food, contacts, all of it. Didn’t get a single panicked call the whole trip.”
Everything you need to know
What ages does it cover?
Infants through school-age kids. The pages cover both ends — nap schedules, feeding schedules, and diaper routines where they apply; school drop-offs, activities, and house rules as they grow. You fill in only what fits your child today, and reprint the pages as they grow.
Couldn’t I just write my own list?
You could — that’s the 3-page text most parents send at 6pm. The binder’s 50 pages of prompts exist so you don’t have to remember what to include. The things parents forget are the ones they’ve never needed yet: poison control, backup contacts, the authorized pickup list, where the fuse box is.
Does this work for grandparents and occasional sitters, not just full-time nannies?
Yes. Fill it out once and it works for anyone watching your child — regular babysitter, grandparent, au pair, or emergency care. Most parents print 2–3 copies to keep on hand.
Do I need to print it, or can I fill it in digitally?
You download the PDF and print it at home — any standard printer works. The pages are designed to be filled in by hand so everything feels accessible and familiar to whoever is watching your child.
What if my child’s routines change?
The pages are designed to be reprinted. Because it’s a one-time download, you can print a fresh copy whenever your family’s needs change — new nap schedule, new medication, new school year.
What if it doesn’t cover what I need?
If you download it and it’s not right for your family, email us and we’ll refund you in full. No questions asked. We’re confident you’ll find it covers everything — but we want you to feel zero risk trying it.
One missed detail is all it takes. Don’t leave it to chance.
One-time download. Print as many copies as you need. Set it up once and use it every time you leave.
Less than one hour of babysitting — lasts as long as you have a caregiver.
