Babysitter Dashboard

Hi there,
so I’m trying to include a “babysitter” “area” (card/page/…) to my main dashboard to be displayed on a wall mounted tablet.

What I am struggling with is a way to nicely display important phone numbers. Right now, I have a simple markup card that basically says:

dad: 123456789
mom: 9887645312
oma: 789123654
opa: 789312458
...

While this works, it’s not really “nice”.

Has anybody dealt with this before? And how have you handled this?

Greatful for any advice!

Thanks!

Hi, so you will have these numbers displayed all the time, even when there is no babysitter?
Also, do you leave the whole control of your house/system accessible to ‘visitors’ when not at home yourself?
I think I would add a complete, slimmed down version, dashboard so you also have more space/options for these numbers.
Just my idea…

Is there not a custom card that suits this purpose better?

I’ve thought about having the phone numbers only displayed when the babysitter is there (e.g. through a conditional card that is active when a helper binary sensor is activated). However: I’d also include number of, for example, the kindergarden or school on the card. So in a way it’s also a way for my wife and myself to have access to those (non-personal, but still important) numbers in the morning, when we notice “the kid is sick; need to call in to the kindergarden/school)”.

Basically I’m looking to replace the old-school paper on the fridge.

I’ve looked through HACS etc but found no card that would do this nicely unfortunately.
