parenting time supervision
(court ordered or by agreement)
Parenting time supervision refers to the arrangement where one parent is allowed to spend time with their child under the supervision of a third party professional.
Supervised visits can help facilitate a relationship while supporting the child's best interests, and may transition to unsupervised visits as the co-parents’ circumstances improve.
A highly trained family law or family dynamics professional provides essential support for high conflict co-parents during parenting time supervision by ensuring a structured and neutral environment. Their expertise helps to mitigate potential conflicts, which can be particularly challenging in high-stress situations or in complex co-parenting circumstances.

parenting time observation
(decision of the “observed” parent)
Parenting time observation refers to a process where a parent voluntarily agrees to have their interactions with their child monitored by a neutral third party.
This initiative is often undertaken to provide assurance and clarity regarding the parent's conduct during visitation, particularly in situations where there may be allegations of inappropriate behaviour or concerns about the child's wellbeing.
These observations are designed to support positive parenting practices and can play a significant role in both informal and formal parenting time arrangements.
