Do I have to add my children?

No. You can use Threaded Care just for yourself.

Is there a page for women without children?

Yes. See our page for women at work, which is not about motherhood.

Can my partner see the information?

Only if you choose to share it.

Is this a parenting course?

No. It is a place to organize information and find available resources and support.

For working mothers

You are a person. Not just the person who keeps everything running.

Where can working mothers start when work and family compete?

Start with whichever needs attention first: yourself, a child, or both. In Threaded Care you can set up your own adult profile, a child's profile, or both, and add information at your own pace. Family labor can be shared with a partner or co-parent; you do not have to be the default owner of everything just because you are the mother.

What this can look like

Illustrative examples, not customer stories or testimonials.

Illustrative example: starting with herself

Keisha's children are doing fine. She is the one struggling to focus at work. She sets up only her own profile for now.

Illustrative example: both at once

Elena is supporting her son through school concerns while dealing with her own exhaustion. She sets up both profiles and shares the school notes with her husband.

What Threaded Care actually does here

One account, your choice of where to start.

Your own adult profile

Create an account and set up a profile for yourself. Family profiles are optional, not required.

Family information in one place

Organize notes and information for the people you support so you are not rebuilding the story each time.

Available screening, inside the app

View the screening tools available for your profile type after sign-up. A screen is a starting point for a conversation, not a diagnosis.

Resources and relevant support

Browse available resources and, when you choose to, connect with the people who support you, such as a provider or a school.

What it is not: Threaded Care is not childcare or therapy and does not diagnose you or your child.

Free worksheet · no sign-up

Self / Child / Both next-step map

Self: One thing I want to understand or change for me:
Child: One thing I want to understand or follow up for my child:
Both: One thing that affects us both, and who else could share it:
Owner: Which of these can someone else own?

This worksheet is part of this page, not a feature of the Threaded Care app. It is not a clinical tool.
