Specialist Residential & Therapeutic Support
Discover the pillars of safe, therapeutic care that transform placements into brighter futures. Our model is built on **trust, expertise, and measurable growth.**

At Stepping Stones Children’s Homes, we provide integrated therapeutic care that places safety, stability, and healing at the centre of every placement. Guided by the PACE model (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, Empathy), our approach helps young people feel secure, understood, and valued. With clinical oversight and a dedicated staff team, we work together to transform trauma into resilience, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to build brighter futures.

We design individualised therapeutic pathways that recognise each young person’s unique experiences, strengths, and aspirations. By integrating the PACE model with clinical expertise and close collaboration with families and professionals, we ensure care is not only safe and consistent but also healing, empowering, and focused on long-term independence.

At Stepping Stones Children’s Homes, our strength lies in our people. We are a united team who bring therapeutic care to life through the values of PACE and trauma-informed practice. With compassion, resilience, and a shared commitment to excellence, we support one another so that every young person receives consistent, healing care and the opportunity to build a brighter future.

Our homes offer the warmth of family life, where children feel safe and connected. With our Good Neighbour Policy, we extend that same ethos beyond our doors — working with neighbours and local communities to promote positive engagement and a sense of belonging.
At Stepping Stones Children’s Homes excellence isn’t optional — it’s who we are. Our homes consistently deliver stability, care and lasting outcomes for young people. When commissioners need placements they can trust, they choose us. Make the referral today and see the difference.
