Are you working in childcare?
if so they will have a policy on this and it will tell you all you need to no and how to deal with this situation.
I know with my work we can only refuse a child from being pick up by another parent if it is documented by the courts/police that he or she can not pick up the child, and this would have been in the child's profile folder and all staff would be aware of this matter.
Not sure if that will help good luck.

What other lawful instructions should you be aware of?
I put
Restraining orders
Supervision & custody orders
Privacy & confidentiality of info
Child protection laws
