TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
Client Name withheld
Residential Parent
“I really appreciate your help and time supervising my daughter during the visit. Even though each visit was difficult leaving “Child Name Withheld” with her dad, but it did made it a bit more of ease knowing my daughter was protected and supervised with you which I thank you and appreciate your help and time. Thank you once again for all your time and for your services supervising. Much appreciated!”

Non-Residential Parent
“I was pretty resigned and cynical by the time Tania came along and I must admit that she did a lot of work in having myself and my ex partner step up and engage in the process authentically. I had all my man complaints about how unfair the system is, how mothers can cut off access with a whim and how unjust it all is.
Tania was impartial and caring and stood for our son to have two parents who shared custody more effectively. She cut through a lot of the complaints that start becoming part of the way I communicated about my ex partner to what really mattered and kept us on track when we get a little lost.
All in all I would suggest the services of Safe Balance especially if you are running out of steam and need a hand to get it all to work.
Finally I would say that Tania sees a win as her getting sacked and us managing it ourselves which is pretty great considering she makes money from our relationship breakdowns.“

I would like to thank Safe Balance for the service they have provided me in giving me a safe and great environment to spend time with my children. I would like to thank Irene and Jo for spending time with my kids and myself and getting to know us. We have shared great times. Also to Kerri for the one-off visit where she was very professional about her job.
I am writing this to formally let the great people at Safe Balance know that their great service is no longer required as myself and the other party have come to an agreement on custody orders where I now can spend time with my kids unsupervised.
