Just want to second Barbara's recommendations. I've had similar experiences as an expert witness and agree completely with her.
A bit off-topic re: BF -- IMHO, the child shouldn't have to pack up and go to their different parent's homes. Too bad parents can't set up a single stable home for their child(ren) and then the allegedly more mature, adult parents pack and move back and forth re: "visitation." I get sick when I hear stories of all children must go through to have time with both parents.
