You canget a restraining order and have it served. The Judge may grant temporary custody usually to the mother til the permanent custody hearing. You can get a order preventing her from taking the kids out of state with the intent of hiding them to avoid a custody hearing. There is a chance that dad may lose his visits temporarily so think about it before proceeding. He should file for custody himself and see what happens. If he has to be child support, he then gets visitation rights too.
