I’m Joel, the founder of Plan2Parent. I found out I had a daughter the day she was born, and from the beginning, co-parenting was a challenging experience with someone I barely knew. Navigating the court, learning the system, and trying to create stability for my child was overwhelming, especially when I couldn’t find a clear, practical parenting plan to follow without spending thousands on legal fees.

So I built one myself.

This template comes from real experience, what works, what causes conflict, and what actually helps create structure and consistency for your child. My goal was simple: create something clear, practical, and easy to use, so other parents don’t have to start from scratch as I did.
