Build, Share, and Manage Any Custody Schedule

Whether you're on a simple week-on/week-off rotation or a complex 2-2-5-5 with holiday overrides, DuetNest's custody scheduler builds your schedule in seconds and keeps it perfectly synced between both parents.

Why custody scheduling is harder than it looks

Court orders often describe a custody pattern in legal language ('alternating weeks beginning Friday at 6pm, with holidays per Schedule A'). Translating that into a daily, visual calendar that both parents can act on requires either tedious manual entry or a tool built specifically for parenting time. Add midweek dinners, school holidays, and the occasional swap, and a generic calendar app falls apart fast.

Pick a pattern

Choose from common templates (1-1, 2-2-3, 2-2-5-5, week-on/week-off) or build custom.

Set the start date and parents

DuetNest auto-fills the next 12 months, color-coded by parent.

Add overrides

Holiday rotations, summer schedules, one-off swaps — all without breaking the base pattern.

Sync everywhere

Optional Google Calendar sync, plus PWA install for instant access on any phone.

Both parents see the same view

No more confusion about whose week it is or who picks up from soccer.

Easy swaps with audit trail

Request a swap, get an in-app approval, and the change is logged with both parents' agreement.

Children's view

Older kids get a simplified read-only view so they always know the plan.

Frequently asked questions

Can I model a court-ordered schedule exactly?

Yes. The custom builder supports any combination of days and times, including alternating weeks and holiday rotations.

What if we need to swap a day?

Tap the day, propose a swap, and your co-parent approves with one tap. The change is logged with both parties' agreement.

Does it work without my co-parent?

Yes. You can use the schedule solo and invite your co-parent later.
