Family leave planning usually means piecing together statutory rules, workplace policies, dates, pay calculations and forms. YFLP breaks that complexity down and brings it into one clear, transparent planning tool.
No acronyms. No spreadsheets. No guesswork.
Know what you can use
Understand which types of leave and statutory pay may be available based on your family and work situation.
Plan both parents together
Build a joined-up leave plan across both parents so you can see time together, handover points, childcare timing and the impact of different choices.
See the financial impact
Model statutory pay, employer-enhanced pay and unpaid periods so you can understand how your plan affects family income.
Bring employer policies into the plan
Add employer-enhanced leave and pay so your plan reflects both statutory entitlements and workplace support.
Know what needs doing when
Surface key dates, notification deadlines and next actions based on the plan you build.
Get employer-ready drafts
Generate draft emails, letters and summaries to help share the right information with your employer at the right stage.
Plan as a family, not in isolation
Parental leave rules are written for individuals, but decisions are made as a family. Your Family Leave Plan brings eligibility, leave entitlement and pay modelling together in one place — so you can make informed decisions that work for your growing family.
See how both parents’ options fit together, including time at home together, support after birth, childcare timing, handover points and the financial impact of different choices.

Your Family Leave Plan is an independent planning tool for UK family leave. It helps families understand options and model plans, but it is not legal, payroll, HR or financial advice. Entitlement should be confirmed with the relevant employer where needed.
