Job Description

Supervised Visitation Monitor

This position is ideal for those that are seeking rewarding work and flexible hours; you let us know which days each month you are available. This is a part-time contract position. The Monitor supervises scheduled visits between parents and their child(ren).

What are Supervised Visits? 

Sometimes parents are not allowed to see their children without a third-party present to ensure the child’s safety and welfare. Supervised visits have usually been court ordered because of an accusation or deficiency in a person’s parenting skills due to mental health illness, substance abuse, family violence, and false accusations. Therefore, a monitor is present at the visit between the child and visiting parent to make sure no physical or emotional harm comes to the child. It is the job of the monitor to ensure the child feels safe and comfortable. 

The monitor will serve as an impartial observer, blending into the background of most visits; however, they must remain aware of the conversation and actions of everyone attending the visit. The monitor must intercede on the rare occasion that the visiting parent engages in inappropriate conversations and/or activities, or if there is a clear and present danger in the parent-child interaction. 

Job Type:  

• Form 1099 Contract Position 
• Part-Time  
• 0–30 hours per week (depending on your availability)

Work Location:

Cheese, Austin’s, Austin Aquarium, etc.), museums, and/or shopping areas. On very rare occasions, visits may occur in the homes of clients.
