What does the caregiver need to know first?
Start with where the videos are and which child profile to use. An exact episode title or prepared approved list is more useful than a broad instruction such as “only educational things.” Include one familiar alternative in case the first choice is unavailable. If two siblings have different access, explain the shared-screen arrangement rather than expecting the caregiver to infer it from separate profiles. Keep the handoff short enough to read before the visit begins.
How much explanation is helpful?
Name the boundary in plain language and explain its practical purpose. “Please use this list because we have checked these episodes” invites cooperation more effectively than assuming the other adult knows your app settings. Tell them what to do if the child asks for something outside the list. If you will be unreachable, agree on whether the request waits or whether the caregiver has authority to make a particular kind of decision.
What should stay out of the handoff?
Do not leave passwords, payment credentials, or temporary pairing codes in a general note. Use the product’s intended adult access arrangement and share only what the caregiver needs. At the end of the visit, ask whether the setup was usable and whether any request caused confusion. A difficult handoff may point to an unclear instruction or a device problem, not a lack of respect. Update the one part that failed so the next visit requires less explanation.
