Example

use Psr\Container\ContainerInterface;
use Technically\NullContainer\NullContainer;

final class MyServiceContainer implements ContainerInterface
{
    private ContainerInterface $parent;

    /**
     * @param ContainerInterface|null $parent
     */
    public function __construct(ContainerInterface $parent = null)
    {
        $this->parent = $parent ?? new NullContainer();
    }

    // ... your code, where you don't need to deal with $parent set to `null`.
