Anna tracks who is doing school pickup

The rota lives with Anna, who reminds today's parent. $20/month.

Monday, 2:35 PM
Anna, who is on pickup this week. Sam and I keep losing track.
You have Monday and Wednesday, Sam has Tuesday and Thursday, and Friday is grandma.
You are on today. I will remind you at 2:50. Thursday clashes with Sam's dentist, so I flagged it for you both.
Week's rota set
Reminder set, today 2:50 PM
Thursday clash flagged
The week's pickup rota is settled, today's parent gets a 2:50 reminder, and a Thursday clash is flagged for both parents to sort.

Anna holds the pickup rota, reminds whoever is on today, and flags a clash before it turns into a scramble.

How Anna does it

  1. 1

    Connect your calendar and WhatsApp once, so Anna can hold the rota and reach both parents.

  2. 2

    Tell Anna who has which days, and she keeps the rota so nobody has to remember it.

  3. 3

    She reminds whoever is on that day, and flags a clash so someone can cover.

What else Anna does here

  • She tells both parents when a day swaps, so the change does not get lost.
  • She adds grandma or the sitter to the rota when they are covering.
  • She flags an early-finish day in your morning brief, so cover is sorted in advance.

What this takes off your plate

The 2:50 wait-is-it-me-today panic just stops.

Questions parents ask

How do we keep track of who is doing school pickup?

Tell Anna who has which days once. She holds the rota and reminds whoever is on that day, so neither of you has to keep it in your head.

Will Anna remind the right parent?

Yes. She reminds whoever is on that day, at a time that gives them room to get there.

What happens when we need to swap a day?

Tell Anna what changed and she updates the rota, then lets both parents know, so the swap does not get lost.

Can grandma or a sitter be on the rota?

They can. Anna adds anyone covering a day and reminds them the same way, so the whole week is accounted for.

Let Anna carry this one

Connect your email, calendar, and WhatsApp once. Anna takes it from there, always with your approval.
