Rompling takes in your school days off, emails, and schedules and helps make your plan — together with your village.
The problem
Every working parent has the same panic: it’s Thursday night and you realize there’s no school / daycare on Monday.
Rompling loads your school’s calendar — or any daycare calendar you upload — flags those gaps early, and helps you fill them — find a camp, see what your village is doing, invite them along, or send a sitter request that goes to your most trusted people first.
It’s the coordination layer parents are currently running on group texts, panic, and coffee — made simpler.
01Know your days
Pick your kid’s school and every break, teacher day, and early release lands on your plan — weeks before it sneaks up on you.
Any school — even if it isn’t listed
Upload the PDF or paste the link; we pull out the days off and you check each one.
Set bell times per kid
Early-release Wednesdays and different pickup times, handled.
02Capture everything
The school newsletter, the camp confirmation, the birthday invite on the fridge. Send it to Rompling and the dates land on your plan, marked tentative so you can check them.
Finds more than events
Camp weeks, vacations, and reminders like “Spirit Week — wear red” come out too.
Paste a link
A camp page or an event listing becomes a plan item in one step.
03Cover the gaps
Tell Rompling when you work. It lines that up against school, camps, and sitters and shows you exactly which hours still need someone.
Drop-off and pick-up
Say who’s doing each, so nobody is “I thought you had it.”
Trips aren’t gaps
Add a vacation and those days stop nagging you.
04Cover the gaps
Rank your people once. When a day needs covering, Rompling asks your first choice, then the next if they can’t — and the first yes books it.
Their time, respected
Each person gets a window to answer before it moves on — 24 hours by default.
Allergies go to the right person
Only what you tick, only to the sitter who says yes.
05Plan with your village
Rompling checks every family’s kids’ schedules, suggests times that work, and runs the poll. Close it, book the winner, and every family gets the invite.
Invites with RSVPs
Add a camp or event and invite families along.
A reminder if you want one
Set a lead time on the event and your family gets a heads-up — nobody has to send it themselves.
Turn on the digests and the plan comes to you.
01
On days with something on, today’s events and reminders at the morning hour you pick — by push, or by email with where each kid is.
02
The week day by day, the days still needing coverage, and camp registration deadlines coming up.
03
“Picture day”, “Register at 10am” — pinned to the day, with a heads-up beforehand if you want one.

A family calendar built around one question: who has the kids? It loads your school’s days off, lines them up with your work hours, and helps you fill the gaps with camps, sitters, and the families you know.
A shared calendar shows what’s on. Rompling knows what’s missing: it loads school days off for you, compares them to your work hours, flags the gaps, and helps fill them.
No. Sitter requests arrive by email with one-tap Yes and No buttons. Text messages are coming soon.
Upload the school calendar PDF or a photo, or paste the link. Rompling pulls out the days off and you review each one.
Rompling is free during early access. When a paid plan arrives it will be one family plan covering both parents — and co-parents and sitters will always be free, and joining a group is always free.
Rompling is live in the Denver–Boulder area. Elsewhere, you can join the waitlist when you sign up.
