Children's Supervised Contact
Our Children’s Contact Service provides support for families to keep them connected following separation. Whether supervised contact takes place at our cosy home-like cottage in Wyong or at another location, children are supported to build and maintain a safe and secure relationship with both parents.
We provide guidance, strategies, resources and activities designed to establish and maintain a positive and meaningful relationship. It is our goal to assist you to move towards unsupervised, self-managed arrangements whenever possible. Quality time together is essential for this to happen.
Extended family members such as grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins can also use our supervised contact service following a period of disconnection or when there are concerns about child safety.
Our staff are non-judgemental and will always keep your child/children's safety, wellbeing and best interests as first priority.

The needs and wants of your child/children are paramount. We help parents to build upon their strengths in order to establish and maintain a positive relationship with their child/children.

Safe, Private & Neutral

Friendly & Non-Judgemental
We will not judge or criticise you. Our staff are neutral and realise that there is no such thing as a perfect parent or family.
