For the grown-ups who say yes
Sleepovers are attended by children and agreed to by adults. The page has to speak to the parents: when to arrive, what to send, what your house allows, and a reply that lands against each child's name.
The guest is seven or eleven; the person who decides, drives, packs the bag and wants to know who to call is a parent. An invitation that reads purely as a poster for the children leaves adults filling gaps with questions, which is why so many sleepover invitations end with fourteen separate messages about medicines and collection times.
A page solves this by being written for both. The children get the film, the pizza and the dates. The parents get drop-off, pick-up, the rules of your house, and a reply that records their child's name with the notes attached. That reply is what you read on the Friday afternoon.
Arrive between six and half past; collect from nine the next morning, plus what happens if you are running late.
Bedtime or not, screens until when, whether the upstairs is off limits, who the adult on duty is. Parents relax in proportion to how specific this is.
What you are serving, and how they should tell you about the peanut allergy or the inhaler in the bag by the door.
Sleeping bag, pillow, toothbrush, a change of clothes, and whether you have spare bedding for the ones who forget.
Your number, and the honest line that you will answer unless the film is on.
Short, factual, in a voice other parents recognise immediately.
Drop off between 6 and 6:30. We eat pasta at 6:30, so arriving after that means missing the start of the film rather than the food.
Dinner is chicken, with a cheese option. Please add anything your child cannot eat in the note when you reply, and put medicine in a named bag with the instructions.
Saturday collection is 9 to 9:30. If you are later than ten, text either number on this page so we are not left guessing.
A sleepover holds a fixed number of beds, blankets and portions.
How it works
Drop-off, collection, food, screens, the off-limits room, your number. This is the content; the design is only the container for it.
Message Jitabi on WhatsApp with the essentials: slumber party on Saturday for five girls, film and pizza, collection at nine. Or build it yourself in the web app and pick a design you like.
Add the names you invited, set how many places a reply may claim, and leave room for an allergy note beside each answer.
Share the link and the password in the parents' group. Confirms gather per child, reminders reach whoever has not answered, and you know the bedding count the evening before.
Questions
One per invited child, from whichever parent is organising that evening. That keeps the count honest and gives the note about allergies and medicine somewhere to go with a name attached.
Leave a note field beside the reply and ask for it plainly on the page. Parents write what they would tell you at the door, and you read it before they arrive rather than when dinner is served.
The household changes their reply, the name moves, and the number you cook and bed down is corrected in the same place. Nobody has to guess from messages.
No. They open the link on their own phone, confirm for their child, add the note, and that is the whole task. Nothing to install for a Saturday night.
Yes. Password-protect the page and share the password with the invited parents. A forwarded link then opens a locked screen rather than your address, your number and your collection time.
Get Started
Times, rules, food and a note for allergies on one page, with each reply belonging to a named child. You set out the beds from a list, not from memory.
