Co-Parenting Binder & Custody Tracker Bundle: overview of what's included

Overview

Raising kids across two homes means a lot to keep straight: schedules, school and doctor details, swaps, messages, receipts. This set splits the work in two. The binder holds the people, the plan and the written record, and the tracker counts overnights, splits shared costs and keeps a running child support balance on its own.

It suits parents who want one quiet, organized place for everything, and clear, dated notes ready if an attorney or mediator ever asks for them.

  • Records and numbers

    Write the details in the binder and let the tracker handle the math.

  • Parenting time counted

    Overnights and each parent's share of time add up automatically.

  • Who owes whom

    Shared costs and support payments show a clear balance.

  • Everything dated

    Exchanges, messages and incidents logged the day they happen.

Good to know

  • Digital download: nothing is shipped
  • Personal use license: please don't share or resell the files
  • An organizer, not legal advice: it doesn't replace your custody order, parenting plan or support order. Laws and courts differ by state, so ask your attorney or mediator which records help in your case

Questions

What should be in a custody binder?

Contact details, the children's health and school information, your parenting plan and schedule, and dated logs of exchanges, messages, shared costs and any concerns. This bundle has a page or a tab for each of them.

Why get the bundle instead of one file?

The binder is for writing things down and the tracker is for adding things up. Together, one keeps the record and the other keeps the totals, like parenting time and support owed.

Will this help me in court?

It's an organizer, not legal advice, and it can't promise any outcome. Courts and rules differ by state, so ask your attorney or mediator which records are useful in your case.

Do I need Excel?

No. The tracker works in free Google Sheets, and an Excel file is included if you prefer it.

How it's made: designed by Sorted Templates. We use AI tools to help draft text and lay out pages, and every page is reviewed and edited by us before it's listed. Lifestyle and mockup images may be AI-generated or AI-edited; the page previews show the actual files.
