Supporting families to re-build 

relationships one step at a time.

ABOUT US

Protego Contact Services endeavour to support children who are adapting to situations where their parents have separated or changes have been made to contact arrangements within their family. Our focus is always on the emotional wellbeing and safety of each child. 

​

We work impartially and without judgement to protect the child from exposure to proceedings that are taking place. This is achieved by monitoring conversations and observing rapport.

​

We aim to promote positive relationships between parents in order to build trust between all parties, so that healthy and rewarding contact sessions can take place.

​

The staff who are employed by Protego Services are DBS checked and hold up-to-date training on child protection and health and safety. 

​

Our staff have worked within children and family services for many years, working in family support, education and contact supervision. 

​

Our staff are highly experienced in ensuring that the children we work with are safe and protected at all times and are able to manage the various needs of our clients. These can include complex situations which require our staff to assert themselves and think on their feet. 

​

We feel that this is all made possible by the positive, professional relationships we are able to build with our clients.
