A Cozi and Skylight alternative for families with childcare
Cozi and Skylight are well-known ways to organize a family. If your week also runs on a nanny or babysitter schedule, Our Family Calendar keeps childcare, work and kids' activities in one shared calendar — on the devices you already have.

Why families with a nanny choose Our Family Calendar
Built around childcare
Family organizer apps like Cozi cover lists, meals and calendars. Our Family Calendar focuses on the schedule itself, with nanny and babysitter shifts shown right beside work, school and activities.
Caregiver access you control
Give nannies, babysitters and grandparents view-only access to just the calendars you choose, and optionally only the days they work.
Timesheets tied to shifts
Time cards start from scheduled shifts, caregivers record actual hours, and parents review and confirm them. Timesheets track hours only — not payroll, payments or taxes.
Works with Google Calendar
Connect Google Calendar so the events you already keep there appear automatically.
Colors for every family member
Each person gets a color and initials, so you can tell whose event it is at a glance.
Questions, answered
Is Our Family Calendar a Cozi alternative?
It can be, especially if childcare is a big part of your week. It focuses on a shared family schedule with nanny shifts, view-only caregiver access and timesheets. Features of other apps vary by product and plan, so compare what matters to your household.
Is it a Skylight alternative?
If you'd rather not buy a wall display, yes. Our Family Calendar works on the phones, tablets and computers you already own, and a tablet can stay on the counter as a family screen.
Can I share it with my nanny?
Yes. Caregivers get view-only access to the calendars you choose and can't edit family events.
Does it sync with Google Calendar?
Yes. You can connect Google Calendar so existing events show up in your family calendar.
