FOR THE WEEKS THAT KEEP CHANGING

When work or childcare hours change, check who can still do pickup.

Keep your usual family week saved. Update the change, see which arrangements no longer fit and compare another option.

Show the calculation

17:30 busy until + 25 minutes travelling + 10 extra minutes = 18:05. Childcare still ends at 18:00.

Your plan uses details you enter and busy times from selected, successfully synced calendars. Add care changes and personal agreements yourself. Check sync status; updates are not instant. Trying an option does not change a real arrangement.

Fictional family: Alex and Sam are parents; Riley is their child. Nothing saved or sent.

You do not rebuild your week every time.

Keep the usual arrangements and update what is different.

Next to arrange: who can collect Noa by 16:00 on Friday? A free day check covers one child; the saved family plan keeps each child’s arrangements separate.

Keep the calendar you already use.

  1. Google Calendar
    Provides your busy times.
  2. You
    Add the childcare arrangements.
  3. WeekBuffer
    Checks them together.

Connect selected calendars in your account, or enter work hours yourself. The free day check uses only your answers, with no calendar connection. Synced times do not confirm a pickup or tell us that a meeting is running late.

A few quick answers

How is this different from a shared calendar?

A calendar shows events. WeekBuffer checks whether work, travel and care fit together, and keeps an available adult separate from an accepted pickup.

Why use it after the first setup?

Keep your routine. Update what changed, compare another arrangement and see which responsibilities still need an answer.

Do I need a partner or a connected calendar?

No. Enter work hours yourself, or optionally connect Google Calendar in your account and choose calendars to sync. A partner can join later. The free day check uses only the answers you enter.

Your family plan. Your private life.

Privacy details

Check busy times without bringing private meeting details into the family plan. Helpers see only their task.

What calendar data is used?
Who can see what?

Your partner sees shared responsibilities and when you are busy. A helper’s private link shows the specific task, not your whole family plan. A parent’s phone record remains separate from the helper’s own reply.

The free day check needs no names or exact addresses. Family and calendar data are never sold or used for advertising. Optional analytics and marketing stay off unless you permit them.

Checks use entered details and selected, synced calendars. Missing or outdated information stays visible; a successful sync does not guarantee a complete plan.
