Our Approach

At Golden Haven Children's Home, our ethos is rooted in the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive in a nurturing and supportive environment. As a small, owner-operated provider, we focus on providing long-term placements and unwavering commitment to the children in our care. We believe in building lasting relationships and never giving up on the young people who rely on us.
Our core values extend beyond the care we provide to the children; we also deeply value the well-being and development of our staff members and the quality of the homes in which they work. We understand that the foundation of exceptional care lies in the hands of compassionate and dedicated professionals who feel supported and appreciated.
To ensure the highest level of support, we employ an extensive team of specialists, including in-house maintenance staff and psychologists. This comprehensive approach allows us to address the diverse needs of our staff and the children in our care, fostering a well-rounded and supportive environment for all involved.

Our ethos can be summarised by our dedication to the following principles:

• Unwavering commitment to the children in our care, focusing on long-term placements and building strong relationships.

• Valuing and supporting the well-being and growth of our staff, recognising their essential role in providing exceptional care.

• Investing in the quality and comfort of our homes, creating safe and welcoming spaces for both staff and children.

• Employing a diverse team of support staff to address the varied needs of our community, ensuring that everyone feels heard, understood, and well-cared for.

By adhering to these principles, we aim to create a positive and empowering atmosphere where children can overcome challenges, realise their full potential, and achieve their personal best. Together with our dedicated staff, we are committed to making a lasting impact on the lives of the young people we serve.

Empowering Young People

Our success is built on a foundation of person-centered care where the individual needs, strengths, and preferences of the children and young people are at the heart of our practices.
We believe in fostering an environment that not only meets regulatory standards but exceeds them.
Our trauma-reactive strategies and comprehensive training programs for staff ensure that we provide a safe, supportive, and empathetic setting for all the children and young people in our care.
