Mothering Sunday (UK) custody schedule for two homes
How co-parents share Mothering Sunday (UK): the common arrangements, the dates from 2026 to 2031, and who has it when you alternate by odd and even years.
Common ways to share it
- With the parent being celebrated every year, whatever the regular schedule says
- From Saturday evening to Sunday evening, so the day starts at that home
- A few hours on the day if the regular schedule puts the children at the other home
- Families with two mothers or two fathers often split the day or keep the regular schedule

Mothering Sunday (UK) is the fourth Sunday of Lent, three weeks before Easter Sunday. Your own parenting plan decides the times.
In TaskFamily, Mothering Sunday (UK) becomes an exception that overrides the usual two-homes schedule for those days, so both homes and the children see where they will be. Swap requests need the other parent's approval and go into the record.
Free for one household. The Co-parent plan covers both homes for $19 a month - $9.50 each when two parents split it.
