Can Children Visit Someone at Waukesha County Jail? What Parents Need to Know
Kids can visit at Waukesha County Jail, but there are supervision rules to follow—and the Huber Facility has a different age policy altogether. Here's what you need to know before bringing a child.
Yes, the Waukesha County Jail allows juveniles (anyone under 18) to visit as long as they meet the jail's requirements. Since policies differ between Waukesha County facilities, double-check that you're following the County Jail visitation rules - not the Huber Facility rules - before bringing a child.
Kids can't come in alone. At the County Jail, every juvenile must be accompanied by an adult visitor. Make sure that adult is prepared to stay with the child through the entire check-in and visitation process. Call ahead to verify current requirements - you don't want to get turned away at the door.
Note: The Waukesha County Jail does not allow unattended children under 12 in the public lobby. Plan for close supervision from the moment you arrive.
Don't confuse the County Jail with the Waukesha County Huber Facility. The Huber Facility has a stricter rule: no visitors under 18, period. If you're unsure which location your loved one is housed in, confirm the facility first. This one detail determines whether a child can visit at all.
