What's on the card
Each child gets their own card with the details that matter in a pinch: allergies, medications, and medical conditions; the pediatrician's name and phone; insurance carrier and member ID; up to six emergency contacts; and the list of people authorized to pick your child up, with notes for anything a caregiver should know.
CoreParent prefills the card from what you have already stored, so setting one up takes minutes, not another evening of data entry.
Pickup authorization, in writing
Who may collect your child is one of the most common flashpoints for separated parents, and one of the most common questions from schools and daycares. The card keeps a clear, named pickup list so a teacher, coach, or sitter can check it in seconds. If your parenting plan restricts pickup, the card is where that reality lives day to day. Need the plan itself? Build a court-ready parenting plan that matches.
Share by link, revoke anytime
Every card has a private link you can text to a sitter or grandparent. Whoever opens it sees only the card: no app to install, no account to create, and nothing else from your CoreParent records. Disable the link or set an expiry whenever you want, and rotate it with one tap to instantly cut off every old copy.
Built for two-household families
Emergency information should not depend on which house the weekend falls in. The caregiver card lives alongside your family records, custody calendar, and expenses in CoreParent, so the answer is the same no matter who is asking. It works even if you are the only parent using the app: see co-parenting solo.
Common questions
Is the caregiver card free?
Yes. Creating and sharing caregiver cards is included with a free CoreParent account.
Who can see the card?
Only someone with the current link. The public view shows just the card's fields, never your other records, and unknown, disabled, or expired links all show nothing at all.
Can I use it as a pickup authorization form for school or daycare?
The card gives a school or daycare a named, parent-maintained pickup list they can check anytime. Many programs also require their own signed form; the card keeps yours consistent and up to date so filling those out takes seconds.
What happens when a sitter's phone has the old link?
Rotate the link and the old one stops working immediately. Share the new link only with the people who should still have it.
Does my co-parent see or edit my card?
Cards you create are yours. CoreParent keeps each parent's information private by default, and nothing is shared with the other parent unless you choose to share it.
