Write babysitter and caregiver handover notes

Routines, house rules, emergency numbers and a log of how the evening went. The sitter reads what they need and writes back, and you check it from your assistant.

An example

@ADoor Note for tonight: Leo has a cold, children's paracetamol at 7 if he's warm. Bedtime 19:30. We're back by 23.

What you can ask later

  • “What did the sitter write tonight?”
  • “What are Leo’s allergies and what do we do if he reacts?”
  • “When did Ella last have medicine?”
  • “What’s the bedtime routine?”

Who can see what

  • The babysitter reads the Handover list, Routines and Emergency contacts, and adds to the log. They can’t see anything else in the family space.
  • Both parents read and edit everything.
  • When the sitter stops working for you, remove their access. It takes effect on their next request, and their notes stay.

How it compares with texts and a note on the fridge

A note on the fridge is better when the power is out, so keep the emergency numbers there too.

Once there’s more than one sitter, or you want to know how the evening went, ADoor earns its place. Each helper sees only what they need, the log keeps who wrote what, and you ask your assistant instead of scrolling texts.

How to start

  1. Sign in to ADoor, then add it to an assistant like ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or Cursor through MCP.
  2. Tell it: “Set up handover notes for our babysitter: Routines, Allergies, Emergency contacts and a Handover log. Invite Sara with access to just those.”
  3. When a sitter stops working for you, remove their access. Their notes stay.

Questions people ask

Can the sitter see our other lists?

No. They only see the lists you include in their access.

Do they need an assistant?

They can use ChatGPT, Claude or Grok, or the ADoor web app.

How much does ADoor cost?

The free plan holds 3 tables and 100 rows, enough to start a list like this. Pro is $10 a month per workspace, with 1 GB of storage and no per-GB charges.

Does it work with Claude and Grok too?

Yes. ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and Cursor all connect through MCP with a sign-in, and each gets its own access that you can narrow or remove later.
