You don’t need to micromanage every diaper change. But you do need to show you’re present, involved, and consistent. A custody timeline helps prove that.
What is a custody timeline? A written or digital record showing key parenting milestones, routines, school events, medical appointments, and communication efforts.
Best practices:
- Log meaningful interactions, not every snack or nap.
- Use a shared calendar with timestamps or screenshots.
- Include records of denial of access if it happens.
Bonus tip: Courts love clarity. Keep it clean, chronological, and concise.
