Parenting plans, made local
In Bellevue, Washington, a good parenting plan covers four things: the regular time-sharing schedule, holidays and school breaks, decision-making, and how parents communicate and handle exchanges. Family cases here generally go through the Superior Court.
Washington describes custody as a parenting plan with a residential schedule and decision-making. Drafting it yourself first — for free — means you walk in organized instead of starting from a blank page.
What your plan should cover
- Regular schedule — who has the children which days and nights (a parenting plan with a residential schedule and decision-making).
- Holidays, birthdays, and school breaks — alternate or split each year.
- Summer and long-weekend time.
- Exchanges — where and when handoffs happen, and who drives.
- Decision-making — school, medical, religion, and activities.
- Communication — how co-parents reach each other and the children.
- Travel and relocation rules.
Choosing a schedule
