Frequently Asked Questions

Separation can make arranging visitation with children difficult. Challenges may occur during the exchange of the child between parents or with relatives like grandparents. Concerns about the visits themselves can also arise. Our program offers a safe and supportive environment where parenting time is supervised by trained staff. Upon request, we provide courts and legal representatives with copies of our observation reports to assist in the process.

Supervised parenting sessions occur either in a private space within our clinic or through virtual meetings. These visits are overseen by trained program staff who carefully record objective, factual observations of the interactions. Staff intervene only if the safety, health, or well-being of the child or others is at risk. To maintain a safe environment, parents arrive and leave at staggered times, ensuring they do not come into direct contact with each other. A minimum of two fully trained staff members are present at all times, and children are accompanied by staff throughout their visit.

To qualify for supervised visitations, the following must be provided:

  • A court order or endorsement, signed Minutes of Settlement, separation agreement, or mediation agreement that clearly outlines the terms of supervised parenting time or exchanges, including the schedule (time, date, frequency) and which party is responsible for the associated fees.
  • Payment of all applicable program fees.

Referrals may also come from:

  • Legal representatives of either party
  • The Office of the Children’s Lawyer (OCL)
  • Self-referrals accompanied by a valid court order

Please note, we reserve the right to impose restrictions or limitations on program participation.

  • A copy of the court order which specifies the terms and conditions of access (times, dates, and frequency of the visits)
  • Copies of affidavits (from court files representing both parties) in relation to custody and access
  • Any social work or psychological assessments
  • A copy of a CAS letter indicating there is no longer an open file with CAS or CAS is involved only on a voluntary basis.
  • A copy of the bail condition and/or restraining order, if applicable

Court appearance fees begin at $500.00 per staff member, per day. Payment is required prior to the scheduled court date.

Non-Compliance Fees
Non-compliance charges apply for lateness, late cancellations, and no-shows.

  • For in-person parenting time and exchanges, lateness is defined as arriving more than 15 minutes past the scheduled time. For virtual sessions, lateness is considered more than 10 minutes after the agreed log-in time. Late arrivals for either in-person or virtual visits will result in the session being canceled. A $30.00 fee will be charged to the party responsible for the lateness.

  • Late cancellations are defined as same-day cancellations for virtual sessions and cancellations less than 24 hours before in-person sessions. A $30.00 fee will be applied to the party who cancels late.

  • If a party fails to attend a scheduled visit within 15 minutes (in-person) or 10 minutes (virtual) of the start time, and cannot be reached, the session will be marked as a no-show and canceled. A $30.00 no-show fee will be charged to the responsible party.
