Parenting Coordinators Alliance

What is parenting coordination?

Parenting coordination is a child-focused dispute resolution process for separated parents that places children and their lifelong wellbeing at its core. It is led by a trained professional called a parenting coordinator.

The aim of parenting coordination is to support parents who, following separation:

• find communicating about their children very challenging; and
• who recognise that developing a more positive parenting relationship will help improve their children’s functioning and feelings of wellbeing in every area of their lives.
