For new parents
Make the work visible before everyone is exhausted.
Night feeds, laundry, supplies, appointments and the hundred small jobs around a new baby: put them in one place and agree who is covering what.

Night feeds
Waking for feeds and settling the baby back down.
A clear split for both of you

Three simple steps
Get from a shared list to a split everyone can use.
- 01
Use the new-baby list
Start with a ready-made set of practical jobs, then change it to fit your feeding, work and support arrangements.
- 02
Choose what works
Each parent or helper can respond in their own time, including the jobs they are best placed to own.
- 03
Agree the first split
Review the suggested split together and adjust it as routines, sleep and support change.
Made for real life
Clear enough to be useful. Flexible enough to change.
- Everyone starts from the same list.
- Each person chooses independently.
- You can review and adjust the split together.
You stay in charge
A useful split, shaped by the people involved.
Everyone chooses independently first. Then you review the split and change anything that needs changing.
Less mental load for the organiser
The work sits in one shared place instead of relying on one person to remember, assign and chase every job.
Easy to revisit
A split for week one will not fit week six. Change responsibilities whenever your routine changes.
Practical support, not parenting advice
Fairly Sorted helps you share responsibilities. It does not tell you how to feed, care for or make health decisions for your baby.
Questions, answered plainly
Before you start.
Can grandparents or other helpers join?
What if our routine changes?
Ready when you are
Share the small jobs before they become one big mental load.
