Observing and supervising Family Time sessions between children and family members.

Providing a safe, neutral and welcoming space for children to spend time with their parents and families.

Appropriate setting up and clearing away of the area used for the session.

Building a professional working relationship with families, professionals, and the team to ensure children/young people/families receive a positive experience throughout the process.
