We are a family-run provider of safe, warm and nurturing residential homes for children and young people with emotional and behavioural needs — helping every child achieve their goals, dreams and aspirations.
Caring Feathers is a family-run business — and it shows in everything we do. Our specialised homes in London and the Derby area combine experienced, fully-trained support teams with the warmth and consistency of family life.
Our needs-led services give young people a voice, supporting children with emotional and behavioural needs towards better outcomes and wider horizons.
The colours in our feathers stand for the four promises we make to every young person in our care.
A true home from home — warm decor, family meals and staff who genuinely care.
Safe, stable environments with clear routines, boundaries and safeguarding at the core.
Needs-led services that listen — young people help shape their own goals and plans.
A 24-hour curriculum, education achievement and independence skills for life after care.

Our teams listen to young people and model the positive relationships they deserve, supporting them to achieve their goals.
Praise and recognition, backed by consistent routines and boundaries, help young people build confidence and self-esteem.
A 24-hour curriculum ensures education achievement is woven into daily life, not left at the school gate.
Tailored programmes teach personal, social and independence skills — preparing every young person for life after care.
My son, for the first time in 14 years, now calls me ‘mum’ and knows who I am. All of this is due to the care and love he receives from the staff. Before he was placed at the home, everyone had given up on him.
This home is an excellent example of how we hope children will be supported. They have gone over and beyond to ensure individual and appropriate care for the children.
Young people make outstanding progress in this home and receive highly personalised and individual care from a skilled and committed staff team.
We work with placing authorities across London and the Derby area, offering both emergency and planned residential placements. Our senior management team personally assesses every referral for compatibility — and responds quickly.
Our homes are staffed by experienced, dedicated and fully-trained support workers — and we’re always looking for people who share our family values.
We invest in our people with full training, qualification support and real progression in a growing family-run organisation.
