Co-parenting app · built in the UK

The UK co-parenting app for separated parents.

Most co-parenting apps are built for America. ParentGlow is built here — around UK family life: contact and child arrangements, pounds, NHS numbers, UK school terms, and the family-court path if you ever need it. Two homes, one calm place.

Why a UK app

The American apps weren't built for British families.

Most co-parenting apps come from the US. They talk about custody and visitation, bill in dollars, run on an American school calendar, and have never heard of a child arrangements order or PD 27A. You end up translating your own family life into someone else's system.

ParentGlow starts from the other end. It's built in the UK, for UK families first — so the words, the dates, the money and the paperwork already fit. Nothing to translate.

The right words

It speaks UK family life, not a US courtroom.

Language matters when feelings are raw. ParentGlow uses the words UK parents — and the family courts — actually use, so nothing feels more adversarial than it needs to.

  • Contact & child arrangements

    Whose week, whose handover, who's on the school run — framed as contact time and a child arrangements pattern, the way it actually works here. Never “custody” or “visitation”.

  • Parental responsibility, shared

    Built for two parents who both stay in their children's lives — the decisions, records and day-to-day kept in one place both homes can reach, not split down the middle.

  • Mediation or court, if it ever comes to it

    You'll likely never need it. But if things ever reach mediation or the family court, everything you agreed is already logged — your parenting plan, messages, expenses and changes — and exports come out court-ready: complete, dated and in order. Under the March 2026 rules, messages, photos and recordings usually stay out of the court bundle unless the judge asks for them; if they're needed, yours are ready. What's used, and the weight it carries, is always the court's decision. Your data is free to take, forever.

ParentGlow isn't legal-advice software — it speaks your language and keeps a fair record, so you'd walk in prepared, not panicking.

UK by default

School terms, bank holidays and £ — already in.

  • The UK year, pre-loaded

    School terms, INSET days and bank holidays are already in the calendar, so plans land around real UK life — not a US semester. Set your pattern once and term dates fall into place — including splitting the school holidays.

  • Money in pounds

    School uniform, clubs, the trip, prescriptions — log it, split it and settle up in £, with receipts attached and a tidy monthly statement. No currency to convert, no awkwardness.

  • NHS numbers and the details that matter

    Each child's NHS number, GP, allergies and medicines kept in one place both homes can reach — and an emergency card a sitter or A&E can pull up in seconds.

And everything you'd expect

A shared calendar, calm messaging, fair expenses.

All the everyday tools are here too — the colour-coded calendar both homes share, Tone Guard messaging that flags wording that might read as heated as you type, fair expense splitting, and one place for your child's whole world. We've written each one up in full.

Honest pricing

One plan covers both homes.

Other apps charge each parent separately — punishing a family for living in two homes. We don't. One subscription covers both parents, with sitter links for grandparents and childminders at no extra cost.

Common questions

What parents ask about a UK co-parenting app.

Is there a co-parenting app built for the UK?

Yes. ParentGlow is built in the UK for separated parents here — DD/MM/YYYY dates, £ GBP expenses, UK school terms and bank holidays, NHS numbers, and the language of UK family law: contact time, child arrangements and parental responsibility, never custody or visitation. Most rival apps are US-built and don't fit British families.

Does ParentGlow use UK family-law language?

Throughout. You'll see contact time, child arrangements and parental responsibility — the terms UK parents and the family courts actually use — and never the American custody or visitation. ParentGlow isn't legal-advice software; it just speaks your language and keeps a clear, fair record.

Can it help if we go to mediation or court?

It quietly keeps a fair record as you go — what was agreed, when, and the messages and expenses behind it. You'll likely never need it, but if things ever reach mediation or the family court, your records export court-ready: complete, dated and in order, and your data always comes out free.

How much does it cost, and does it cover both parents?

It's free during early access. At launch it's £5.99 a month, and one plan covers both homes: both parents, with sitter links for grandparents and childminders at no extra cost. There's no per-parent charge, and exporting your family's data is always free. Join early and you pay a lower founding price for your first months after the free period, then the standard price; families on the early-access list get it for longer.
