Frequently Asked Questions

Supervised visitation is the observed interaction between the visiting parent and child by a neutral third party for a specified amount of time. Supervised visits allow parents in high conflict or high risk situations to spend time with their child in a safe supervised environment.

 We document the interactions between the child and parent through written notes or recordings. After the visit, we can provide a copy of our handwritten notes or transcription to the requesting party within 48 hours.

Our supervisors work off site. Supervised visits can take place in a park, zoo, entertainment establishments such as Chuck E Cheese’s or even a bowling alley. If allowed, the visits can also take place in the home of the visiting parents. Certain locations are not allowed due to the inability to hear or maintain constant contact with the child. 

Supervisors observe and monitor the interactions during the visit to make sure that discussions and activities are suitable and safe for the child, both emotionally and physically. If a conversation involves adult topics, a supervisor will guide the parent to change the subject. The parent must manage the child's behavior and step in if the child misbehaves.

All parties fill out an online intake form. A copy of the court order is provided at that time. A non-refundable intake fee of $50 is collected. After receiving all forms, an intake orientation will be arranged individually for each party. This orientation can take place in person, via phone (FaceTime), or through Zoom.
