What to Include in Nursery Handover Notes

Good handover notes help nursery staff understand your child's morning and any needs for the day. They don't need to be long — just clear and helpful.

The essentials

Focus on anything that might affect your child's day: how they slept, whether they've eaten, any medicine given, and their general mood. Nursery staff appreciate knowing if your little one is tired, teething, or just having an off day.

Medicine and health

If you've given Calpol or any other medicine, always note the time. Most nurseries need this information for their records, and it helps them know when (and if) another dose might be needed.

Keep it positive

Sharing small wins — a new word, a good night's sleep, trying a new food — helps build a lovely connection between home and nursery. Staff love hearing about these moments.

No. Everything happens in your browser. Nothing is stored on our servers, and there's no account needed. When you close or refresh the page, everything is cleared.

Can I use this every day?

Absolutely — that's what it's designed for. It takes about 60 seconds to tick a few boxes and generate your notes. Some parents use it every nursery morning.

What age is this for?

It's designed for toddlers and young children in nursery or preschool — typically 12 months to 4 years. The options cover common things for this age range.

Can I add my own notes?

Yes — each section has an optional free text field where you can add specific details. The generated note will include anything you type.
