Resumo:Early intervention with children at risk is a unique opportunity to influence positively their future development. This paper presents a study with thirty-five mothers, supported by a Local Intervention Team, in order to assess parental satisfaction on services provided. This desire is particularly relevant not only for the impact they can have on improving the quality of their work, but also in promoting parenting skills and involvement of families in the intervention processes. It is an exploratory study and the results show a high degree of satisfaction in the following dimensions: support to parents, model and support structure and administration of service and less satisfaction areas: dissemination of their rights and social environment in the relationship between parents and professionals.
