Co-parenting for separated parents

It can be difficult to navigate co-parenting after a divorce or separation. You may be thinking about the practical arrangements, supporting your child and how to cope emotionally. Our advice section can help you with all the different aspects of co-parenting. You may need advice on creating a co-parenting plan which can help both parents and perhaps how to cope with school holidays. We also have advice on contact issues including renewing contact, how to manage routines for the children in different households and the importance of keeping to your contact arrangements. We understand that it can feel like a very isolating and stressful time when you are going through a separation or a divorce, but we are here for you.
