A Safe and Welcoming Children's home
The Puffin Lodge is a registered children’s home that opened in September 2021. The home is a lovingly maintained, specially adapted detached property situated on a main yet quiet road in a nice residential area. The house offers accommodation for up to four young people, both males and females with EBD.
This house is situated in Neasden, London. Our location with offers convenient travel links into London.
The house is a two storey property, consisting of four bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms, a fitted kitchen, dining room, and functional garden.
The garden has a lovely setting and is enjoyed by our young people. The bedrooms at our children’s residential home are furnished and decorated to the child or young person’s unique style.
Role modelling and positive relationships
We place a heavy emphasis on listening to and supporting young people in achieving their goals and realising their dreams and aspirations.
Our team provide caring and appropriate role models who are experienced and well trained in offering a service that covers important “outcomes” for young people, through the application of choices, activities and consistent boundaries.
Independence and Equal opportunities
We strongly believe and actively pursue that every child should be given the same opportunities.
Access to vast and varied activities specifically developed and supported, encourage young people to access their local and wider community.
We also develop tailored independence programs to teach a variety of personal, social and independence skills that will allow young people to grow, take control of their futures.
Promoting positive behaviour
We use a combination of praise and recognition, with routines and boundaries to promote positive behaviour. Staff support the young person to understand their behaviour and to understand why there is a need to set goals and boundaries. We hope to enhance the young person’s self-esteem and promote positive expectations for their future behaviour.
