Parenting Assessment across Birmingham

OBK Social Care Consultancy provides an independent parenting capacity assessment to families, solicitors, local authorities and organisations across Birmingham. Covering Birmingham, Solihull and the wider West Midlands.

About this service

If you are facing a parenting capacity assessment, it is natural to feel anxious about what it involves and what it might mean for your family. A parenting capacity assessment is a careful, evidence-based look at a parent or carer's ability to meet a child's developmental, emotional, educational and safety needs, now and in the years ahead. Our approach is fair, respectful and focused on understanding both the challenges and the strengths within the family.
