Availability Schedule field in Django Models?

I am quite new to Django and I'm trying to build a web application where some users will be able to input their available weekly schedule and also show at what times of a day they are available. The picture below(this is just front-end part) shows something similar to what I'm trying to build. What type of Model field do I use to store this type of information inside of a Model class?

I would use a ManyToMany field which links to a Shift table.

class Shift(models.Model):
    # Day of week
    day = models.CharField()
    # Morning, afternoon, evening
    time = models.CharField()

class UserProfile(models.Model):
    ...
    availability = models.ManyToManyField(Shift)

The Django docs have a handy guide on using ManyToManyFields. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/db/examples/many_to_many/
