  • Parent Aide Role

  • The role of the Parent Aide in custody cases is to support the development of safe, stable, and healthy parenting dynamics that promote the best interests of the child. Services focus on encouraging constructive communication, strengthening trust between parents and children, and supporting cooperative co-parenting when applicable. The Parent Aide may observe parent-child interactions and provide guidance on healthy parenting practices, child development, and age-appropriate expectations. The overall goal is to promote positive family relationships and support a parenting environment that prioritizes the child’s safety, stability, and well-being.

  • Client Expectations

  • Client will provide all necessary items for child(ren) including but not limited to; diapers, wipes, changes of clothes, beverage, meal and/or snack, toys and/or activities.

     

  • Client understands that the visits are intervention-based meaning that the Parent Aide will be offering feedback from evidence-based curriculum to assist the parent in positively furthering their parenting techniques.

     

  • Client understands that corporal punishment is not allowed in any circumstance and if corporal punishment is used or suspected of the visit will be immediately terminated.

  • Client understands that client and child(ren) must stay within earshot and eyesight of Parent Aide at all times.

  • Client understands that payment must be received prior to services being provided, and failure to submit payment in advance may result in cancellation of the scheduled service.
     
     
     

  • Client understands that they must comply with all applicable court orders, including but not limited to custody orders, no-contact orders, and any other court-imposed requirements, while participating in Parent Aide services.

  • Pest Disclosure Agreement

  • If your home has, or you become aware of, bedbugs, fleas, cockroaches, lice or similar pests at any time during services, you are required to:
    ● Inform your provider immediately.
    ● Work with your provider to create a plan to reduce the risk of spreading pests.

    This plan may include:
    ● Holding visits outdoors or in a neutral public setting.
    ● Wearing clean, freshly laundered clothes for visits.
    ● Avoiding transport of bags or personal items between locations.
    ● Be open to using visit time to support treatment and prevent spreading.

    If pests (such as bedbugs, fleas, or cockroaches) are observed during a visit, or if it
    becomes clear that the agreed-upon plan is not being followed, the visit may need to be paused to ensure everyone's health and safety. Services can continue once the situation has been addressed and an updated plan is in place.

    We understand that these situations can be stressful, and our goal is to support you
    through them. We’ll stay in contact and work with you to find safe, practical solutions that keep your family connected to services.

    I have received, read, and understand the Pest Disclosure Agreement regarding
    pests such as bedbugs, lice, fleas, and cockroaches, and agree to follow the
    guidelines during services.
