What does a Supervised Visitation Monitor do during visitations?
The Provider is there to be a neutral third party, observing the interactions between the parent and child(ren); ensuring the safety of the child(ren) with as little interference as possible. The Provider is to be a “fly on the wall”, he or she is not there to play, interact or build a relationship with the child; he or she is not the social director of the visit. The Provider will make sure that the Court Order(s) regarding Supervised Visitation are observed and Guidelines are followed. The Provider also will be taking notes as necessary to provide feedback when requested to the agencies involved, Court or attorney’s.
