Specialist Services - PAFA (Parenting Assessments For All) Ltd

Specialist Services

Our care extends beyond parenting assessments, we offer additional
specialist services to provide the utmost support for families in our care.

We believe that every parent deserves a second chance, and in order to unlock the parents potential, we offer a range of specialist services.

In our commitment to keeping families together, we offer a comprehensive range of services, from basic childcare to smoking cessation classes.

Parents have access to professionals such as Clinical Psychologists, Healthy Relationship Practitioners, and Drug and Alcohol Specialists. By engaging a diverse team of therapists within our parenting assessment centre, we equip parents with the resources they need to reach their full potential, and to implement healthy, positive changes in their child/ren’s life.

Parent Feedback

I thought PAFA was going to be hectic/ wild as I have lived in different places, but its completely different, its warm and the homeliest place I’ve ever been too. All staff ask how are you? even if they don’t have to – it’s nice. All staff have been brilliant, all easy to talk to and I can approach them all.
