CalmCover

CalmCover is a mobile + web app that helps parents of kids (especially those with higher support needs) find short, reliable respite coverage without endless calls, paperwork, and uncertainty. Parents create a care profile once (routines, meds, triggers, emergency contacts, house rules), then request a time window. The app matches them with local respite providers who meet required certifications and experience, supports quick video introductions, and handles scheduling, payments, and post-visit notes. It also includes a “backup plan” flow: if a provider cancels, the system automatically re-offers the shift to a pre-approved pool and alerts the parent with realistic ETAs. This is not a magic wand—supply is the bottleneck—so the product focuses on reducing friction, improving trust, and making cancellations less catastrophic rather than promising instant care everywhere.
