Welcome to Lilly Pilly
Supervised Children’s Contact for Parents and Families
Lilly Pilly provide a safe, neutral and happy place for children to spend time with their family.
All Lilly Pilly, staff put children’s needs first and do not take sides with either parent or any other adult involved in the visits.
We believe every child has a right to spend time with their parents or significant other people as long as it does not affect their best interests.
We understand every situation is very different and there is no perfect solution to the time children spend with each of their parents.
Lilly Pilly’s aim is to always minimise a child’s exposure to conflict or unsafe situations.
Lilly Pilly works in close collaboration with the Federal Circuit and Family Courts, as well as State Child Safety and Community Corrections Departments. We also assist with many private arrangements.
Over time, and where possible and safe to do so, families are encouraged to move to self-management of their arrangements for spending time with their children.
Lilly Pilly’s on-site operating times are currently 8am – 7pm Monday to Thursday and 8am – 4pm Saturday / Sunday (including Public Holidays).
Industry Professionals are always welcome to visit the property at anytime.
Lilly Pilly was honoured to be invited to the Queensland Gives Community Foundation and Queensland Gives Philanthropy Week 2026 celebration at Queensland Parliament House, held in the historic Red Chamber.
The event recognised the incredible impact of community giving, philanthropy, and generosity across Queensland, bringing together individuals and organisations dedicated to creating positive change in their communities.
We are incredibly proud that our own Darren Caulfield was nominated for the Community Philanthropist of the Year Award 2026, recognising his unwavering commitment to supporting children, families, and the wider community. While the nomination itself is a tremendous achievement, it also reflects the collective effort of everyone who supports the work of Lilly Pilly.
It was lovely meeting Margaret McMurdo AC and Christine Ahern, whose contributions to philanthropy and community impact continue to inspire Queenslanders.
Thank you to Queensland Gives for shining a spotlight on the power of giving and the difference that passionate individuals and organisations can make when they come together for a common purpose.

Thank you to everyone who came out today and supported our Bunnings BBQ—even through the rain ☔💛
We’re so grateful for our community showing up, grabbing a bite, and standing alongside Lilly Pilly.
A special thank you to Gold Coast Bakery for their generous donation of 40 loaves of bread—your support helped make today possible.
We pause to remember, reflect, and honour.
This ANZAC Day, we share these special moments of Darren and Lilly during their Kokoda Trek in 2019 — a journey that carries deep meaning, walking in the footsteps of those who showed extraordinary courage, sacrifice, and mateship.
At Lilly Pilly, we hold close the values of resilience, connection, and community. It is a reminder of the strength found in standing together and supporting one another through all of life’s challenges.
Lest we forget 🌺
Huge thank you to the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Trust 💛
