Parenting Coordinator

A Parenting Coordinator is a neutral professional, often with a background in law, psychology, or social work, who helps separated or divorced parents resolve conflicts regarding their children's upbringing. They assist in interpreting court orders, developing parenting plans, and improving communication between parents. The goal is to minimize disputes and focus on the best interests of the child. Parenting Coordinators can make decisions on specific issues when parents cannot agree, aiming to create a more cooperative co-parenting environment. Their involvement can reduce stress for both parents and children during challenging transitions.
