What this means in the UK
A parenting time log that stays organized โ for UK parents
A useful UK record does not try to sound like a witness statement. It keeps the applicable arrangement, the event, the recorded time and the supporting source distinct. Use neutral language and preserve the unedited original.
England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have separate family-law systems. Keep the wording used by the order or agreement rather than importing a label from another jurisdiction. A family solicitor can explain what belongs in a statement, exhibit, disclosure or private preparation file.
When a review is needed, make a working copy and select the shortest sequence that answers the question. The complete archive remains private, with ordinary events and later corrections still available as context.
A record you can reconstruct later
Keep scheduled time and actual time easy to compare.

How it works
Build a timeline that answers what changed.
Record what was planned
Start with the scheduled pickup, return, overnight, or care period.

Capture the time that occurred, including cancellations, late returns, and make-up time.
Connect the explanation
Attach the message or note that shows whether a change was requested, agreed, or disputed.
Common questions
Before you start recording
Casewell helps organize information. It does not decide what is legally relevant or replace advice from a qualified professional.
What is the difference between a calendar and a parenting time log?
A calendar shows what was planned. A parenting time log records what actually occurred and keeps later changes or explanations with that event.
Can I track make-up time?
Yes. Record the missed or changed period and connect any agreed make-up time so both parts remain visible.
Can I filter parenting time records?
Casewell lets you review and export records by date, child, or category.
