Break Room (Caregiver HQ) Overview
The Break Room is the grown-ups' room — a cozy, after-hours lounge and headquarters just for caregivers. You spend your days holding space for someone else; this room holds space for you. Plan care at your desk, decompress in the lounge, keep a private notebook, and lean on mentors and peers.

| The After-Hours Lounge | Live caregiver-only chat, plus the Vent Booth (swept away nightly, anonymous if you like) and the Wins Wall — strictly for bragging |

Tips
- Use Shift Handoffs for real. Tag your co-caregiver and they tap "I have the shift" — nothing gets dropped between you.
- The Vent Booth is genuinely ephemeral — everything is purged nightly, so let it out.
- Watch your tank. One number tells you what's left; book respite before it hits empty, and only tell your littles you're recharging if you choose to.
- Auntie Vee reads your notebook once a week and writes back ~150 warm words with one gentle suggestion — worth keeping the notebook current.
