For parents with babysitters
Does your babysitter know about the peanut allergy?
You found a great babysitter. She seems responsible. But does she know the allergy is life-threatening. Not just a stomachache? Does she know where the EpiPen is? Does she know the pediatrician's after-hours number? Does she know he can't have his inhaler without calling you first?
Baton Pass gives you one place to put all of it. You send her a link before you leave. She opens it on her phone. Everything is there. Allergies first, in red. You see the notification that she opened it on your way to the restaurant. She has it. You can actually enjoy dinner.
Create your child's pass, freeWhat your babysitter sees when she opens the link
Everything is on one mobile page, organized so the most critical information is always at the top.
Allergies: always first, always visible
Life-threatening allergies appear at the top in red before anything else. Your babysitter cannot scroll past them. She sees them the moment the link opens: which allergen, what the reaction looks like, and what to do. No scanning, no searching, no missing it.
You leave knowing the most critical information is the first thing she sees.
Medications: exact dose, exact location, exact instructions
Name of the medication, the dose, where it is in the house, and when to give it. If a medication requires your approval before she gives it, a prominent stop indicator tells her to call you first. She does not guess. She does not estimate. She calls.
Emergency contacts: one tap to call
Your number, your partner's number, the pediatrician's number, poison control. All in priority order, tap-to-call. In an emergency, she is not searching through texts trying to remember who to call or how to reach you.
Pickup authorization: who is allowed at the door
If your mother-in-law is picking up instead of you, your babysitter knows. Name, relationship, and optionally what their car looks like. If an unexpected person shows up, she knows whether they are authorized. You are not wondering later whether she let the wrong person through the door.
Custom instructions: everything only you know
His actual bedtime (not the one he tells her). The food he is currently refusing. The sentence he will use to negotiate more screen time and why the answer is no. The way he needs to be settled if he wakes up scared. Anything that does not fit a form field. It goes here.
She is equipped for tonight specifically, not just generically.
Three steps before you leave the house
Build your child's profile
Add allergies, medications, emergency contacts, pickup authorization, and instructions. Takes about 10 minutes the first time. After that, you update only what changes.
Generate a link with an expiration time
Choose how long the link is valid: 4 hours, 24 hours, whatever fits your plans. Generate the link with one tap.
Text her the link
She taps it, she sees everything. You see in your dashboard when she opened it. When you get home, the link expires automatically. Or you revoke it.
Questions about using Baton Pass with a babysitter
Does the babysitter need to make an account?
No. She taps the link, it opens in her browser. No download, no sign-in, no password.
What if she already left and I need to update the allergy information?
Update your profile. She sees the latest information the next time she opens the link. No need to send a new link.
Can she access it if there is no WiFi?
She needs a data connection to open the link. Once it is open, the information is visible. For situations with unreliable connection, encourage her to open it before she arrives.
Can she screenshot it?
She can screenshot anything on her phone. But every view is watermarked with her IP address and the time, and you can revoke the link when you are home.
How do I know she actually read it?
The audit log in your dashboard shows every time the link was opened, with the exact time and IP address.
Also have pets?
If your babysitter is watching your pets too, you can include pet profiles on the same pass — or create a separate pet pass for the sitter. Allergies, feeding schedule, vet contacts, and behavioral notes, all in one link.
Know she has it before you leave.
Free to start. No app required for you or your babysitter.
