Free pattern generator

Shared custody schedule generator

Generate a visual starting point from a known date and starting home. Then review transfers and exceptions instead of treating a repeated pattern as a legal answer.

Try an example

One-off exceptions (optional)
Starting Home A on Monday with a 2-2-3 pattern produces A-A, B-B, A-A-A, then reverses the following week.

Local demonstration: nothing is saved until you create an account.

How to use it

  1. Anchor the first day

    Use a date whose residence is already known rather than guessing the phase.

  2. Choose a pattern

    Preview the sequence and transfer time in text as well as color.

  3. Add holiday exceptions

    Override specific intervals without destroying the underlying rhythm.

Worked example

Starting Home A on Monday with a 2-2-3 pattern produces A-A, B-B, A-A-A, then reverses the following week.

A generator is not a legal calculator

The output reflects only the inputs. It does not interpret a judgment, determine fairness or resolve ambiguous wording.

Preserve the base pattern and exceptions

Keep a recurring rhythm separate from holiday overrides. That makes a one-off change reviewable without silently shifting every later date.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a 2-2-3 pattern?

The child spends two days at one home, two at the other and three back at the first; the sequence reverses the next week.

Can I add a one-off exception?

Yes in the full planner. Exceptions should keep their own dates, replacement home and audit history.

Does the generator prove compliance with an agreement?

No. Review the result against the original agreement and seek qualified advice where needed.
