Nurturing Children's Well-being

The idea that each child deserves a caring and secure home environment is at the core of our children’s care services. Sams Helping Hands is here to help you whether you require general support or respite care.

Our goal when taking care of children is to provide them with the resources they need to become independent, which will boost their self-esteem and resilience.

Understanding and Compassionate

Every family situation is different and we understand the challenges many face.

Our compassionate carers have hands-on experience working with children who’s behaviour can be difficult as well as children with autism, significant medical needs, and physical or mental disabilities. Because of this, people consider our child care services to be dependable and safe.

We can aid with mealtimes, leisure activities, and transitioning into adulthood as well as help your family build routines. To make sure we all have the same understandings and are working towards the same objective, we promote our cooperation with specialists and caseworkers.
