Simple and Intuitive: Our Parental Leave Money Planner is a Google Sheet designed to guide you through key financial decisions.
Step-by-Step: We provide video and written instructions within each tab to make it easy to use.
Personalised: Tailor the planner to your specific income, expenses, and entitlements.
Visualise Your Finances: See your income and expenses during leave, identify potential shortfalls, and track your savings progress with clear charts.
Gain Clarity: Facilitate open conversations with your partner about money and shared responsibilities.
Parental leave is one of the biggest financial shifts you'll go through — and most couples plan it on the back of a napkin.
This planner does the opposite. It's the tool 900+ parents have used to get organised before leave starts: track both incomes, split shared costs fairly, hit your savings goal, and walk into leave knowing exactly where you stand… instead of finding out three months in.
What it actually does:
Auto-calculates your key dates — due date, qualifying week, notice deadlines, earliest leave start, so you're not stressing about "when do I tell my employer" at 2am.
Splits your finances properly. Separate tabs for Partner 1, Partner 2, and shared costs, so it's not just "mum's spreadsheet" — both of you can see where the money's coming from and going.
Shows you the gap before it happens. The Overview tab compares your normal income to your leave income month by month and flags any shortfall in red, so you know exactly what you're saving for.
Tracks your savings goal with live pie charts — set a target, log what you save, watch it fill in.
Comes with a baby buy list built in, so the "what do we actually need to buy" spiral has a home.
Video walkthroughs on every single tab. You're never staring at a blank spreadsheet wondering what goes where.
(Note: this planner won't calculate your maternity/paternity pay amount for you — it's built to help you plan around it once you know the number. More on that below.)
