Children in FOCUS is a professional, community-based private Children’s Contact Service, established in 2015 and operating across Sydney, Central Coast and Sutherland Shire.
For over ten years, we’ve supported hundreds of families through some of their most challenging times, helping children maintain meaningful relationships in a safe, supportive environment.
We are trusted and highly regarded by parents, Family Law Courts, lawyers, psychologists, and mediators for our professional, compassionate, child-focused, and trauma-informed approach.
Our supervised visits are facilitated by qualified, caring, and professional supervised contact workers, often referred to as Supervisors, who are trained to create calm, neutral environments that support children’s emotional well-being.
We specialise in providing safe, reliable supervised contact and changeover services for separated families, extended relatives, and children aged 0 to 17 who may be impacted by:
-
- Parental separation or
- High-conflict parenting
- Family Violence or Domestic abuse
- Child protection concerns
- Court-ordered supervised visitation
- Drugs or Alcohol misuse
- Mental health challenges
- Safety concerns for children spending time with a parent
- Child abuse or sexual assault investigations, and any other allegations
- The extended separation and the need for assistance with reunification between the children and their parents
- Safety concerns at changeovers and uncertainty of whether your child would be returned back to you after the visit
- We support children in maintaining safe contact with an incarcerated parent by providing supervised prison visits when the residential parent is no longer in a relationship with the parent in custody.
Whether you're a parent, carer, lawyer, or service provider, you can trust Children in FOCUS to deliver consistent, trauma-informed, and court-compliant supervised contact solutions tailored to each family's needs.

Why should you choose Children in FOCUS?
Our Commitment to Your Child’s Safety and Well-Being
At our private supervised contact service, the child is our primary client. Our focus is on ensuring that children are safe, content, and comfortable during their time with their supervised parent. We create a nurturing environment where children can enjoy quality time while parents can feel confident that their child's well-being is our top priority.
- Child-Focused Supervision: Our primary responsibility is the safety and emotional well-being of the child throughout the visit. We work to ensure that the child feels supported, happy, and at ease during supervised contact.
- Safe Return: At the end of each visit, we ensure the children are safely returned to the parent or guardian they live with, providing peace of mind for everyone involved.
- Fast Scheduling: We arrange supervised contact quickly, often within a week, and adjust to fit your family's schedule, including weekends, early mornings and evenings.
- Natural Environment: Visits can take place in real-world settings such as parks, homes, zoos, and other locations where children feel most comfortable, allowing for natural interactions with the parent.
- Detailed Reports for Court: Our detailed and independent supervision reports can be used as credible evidence in court proceedings. This allows your truth to be supported and recognized through our thorough and impartial observations.
- Over 9 Years of Experience: We have worked with hundreds of families and provided thousands of supervised visitations maintaining the highest standards of supervision.
- Confidential Services: Whether we are working with high-profile clients or everyday families, we ensure privacy, discretion, and satisfaction for all involved.
- Rebuilding Relationships: Our service is designed to help children reconnect with parents they may not have seen for some time, creating a safe and nurturing environment for rebuilding these important relationships.
- Safety During Changeovers: We ensure that parents remain safe during changeovers by coordinating the process so they do not come into direct contact with each other, reducing stress and ensuring smooth transitions for the children.
