About Us
At Yaffle Care, we operate as a dedicated specialist residential care provider offering therapeutic, child-centred homes for children and young people aged 8 to 18. Established with a core commitment to emotional safety, stability, and positive development, our mission is built on providing warm, nurturing environments where vulnerable young people can heal from past trauma, build resilience, and thrive.
Who We Are
Operating through our headquarters on Great Portland Street in London (Company Registration No. 14598597), our organisation brings together experienced residential care managers, therapeutic practitioners, and dedicated youth support workers under the leadership of responsible individual Steven Brown. Regulated by Ofsted under social care common inspection frameworks (consistently achieving "Good" regulatory ratings), we collaborate closely with local authorities, social work teams, and safeguarding commissioners to deliver secure residential placements.
What We Do
We deliver an integrated suite of specialist residential care and youth support solutions:
- Therapeutic Children's Homes: Providing secure, small-group residential provisions (registered for up to three children) tailored to support individuals with social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) needs.
- Trauma-Informed Emotional Support: Utilising relational and therapeutic parenting models to help children process difficult emotions, build trust, and develop psychological resilience.
- Life Skills & Practical Independence: Integrating essential day-to-day skill-building into routines—including cooking, budgeting, personal hygiene, and community safety—to prepare youth for adulthood.
- Education & Multi-Agency Coordination: Partnering closely with local schools, educational psychologists, and healthcare providers to support academic progress and holistic wellbeing.
Our Approach & Values
- Child-Centred Respect: Grounded in the philosophy that "to take children seriously is to value them for who they are right now," placing individual identity and voice at the core of all decisions.
- Unwavering Stability: Providing a consistent, predictable, and family-like home environment where children feel genuine belonging and long-term security.
- Rigorous Safeguarding Governance: Maintaining strict adherence to statutory compliance, enhanced background checks (DBS), and continuous professional training for all staff.
