The Family Care File: Print Edition (Coil-Bound A4 Behaviour & Medication Tracker)

Every specialist asks the same questions. Now you'll have the answers in one book.

The Family Care File print edition brings everything about your child's care together in a sturdy, coil-bound A4 book that lies flat on the kitchen table, ready for the moments you need it.

Includes the digital version free. Download the fillable PDF straight after purchase, so you can start right away while your book is printed and shipped, and use it on your phone at appointments.

What makes it different

Most trackers record one thing. This system connects everything. Your behaviour log, medication records, strategy tracker and weekly summaries work together, so you can actually see patterns, like a medication change followed by calmer mornings, or hard moments that always land around 4pm on days your child barely ate lunch. That's exactly the kind of information doctors and specialists want, and it's hard to remember on the spot.

What's inside (62 full-colour pages)

• About my child: a one-page profile to share with teachers, specialists, respite workers and family
• Care team directory: two pages for every doctor, specialist and support worker
• Current medications list and medication change record, so you always know what changed, when, and what you noticed after
• Strategy tracker: what you tried, whether it worked, and whether to keep, tweak or drop it
• 13 weeks of tracking, each with a medication log, behaviour log and weekly summary
• 8 appointment prep and notes pages
• Notes pages for phone calls, school meetings and everything else

Designed for tired days

Most pages take under two minutes. You log the hard moments, not every moment. And if you miss a week, just pick it back up: some information is always better than none.

Why I made this

I'm Erinn. Before becoming a mum, I worked as a youth worker supporting children in care who had experienced trauma and were living with multiple mental health conditions and diagnoses.

At work, the mental load was shared. Caseworkers, carers, clinicians and support workers each held a piece of it, and we had tracking tools, shared notes and handovers to keep everyone on the same page. Even then, it was a lot.

When you're the parent, it usually falls on one person, maybe two. You're the one remembering every appointment, every medication change, every strategy you've tried, and what each specialist said, on top of everything else family life asks of you.

The Family Care File takes the kind of tools that helped our team spot patterns and keep track, and makes them simple enough for one tired parent at the kitchen table. It won't carry the load for you, but it gives you somewhere to put it down.
