Supervised contact is when a child spends time with someone close to them who they do not live with, usually a parent or other family member. It may be overseen by a professional or family member. Contact may be supervised to make sure that the child is safe, and the contact is in their best interests.
About this service
Family Integrated Services is one of the leading organisations providing supervised contact sessions. We are a floating service, which means contact takes place in the community, making use of public and private spaces. In some instances there may be an extra charge if contact happens in a venue that charges a fee.
We support the physical safety and mental wellbeing of the child during contact with a parent or carer who does not live with them. We help parents and family members reconnect with a child after a significant amount of time has passed, and we work alongside parents to build and maintain those relationships.
Our sessions are led by qualified, experienced social workers with a strong background in child protection and court work. Every member of staff who works with children holds a DBS check.
Referrals usually come from a local authority, another child contact centre, a court, a CAFCASS officer, or directly from a parent. Supervised contact is charged at an hourly rate, which includes one report to the paying parent. Additional reports for other recipients are available for a small fee.
