About Single Parent Path
Clearer information for Australian single parents and people who may soon be parenting on their own.
What this service does
We bring together Australian government and service information, explain the different routes and link to the organisations that can assess your circumstances. You can use pathways, guides, printable checklists and state pages without an account.
Support can depend on care, income, residence, safety and local rules. We help you find the next question to ask; the relevant agency or a qualified adviser makes individual assessments.
Independent and clearly identified
Single Parent Path is an independent information service operated by Scott Leimroth, ABN 44 565 174 164. It is not a government service, law firm or financial-advice provider. It is separate from the government-funded Parent Pathways program.
There are no paid referrals or visitor analytics in this version. Read our sources and updating approach.
