Children and family services
Find out how we can help you.
Parents
Bringing up children is exciting and enjoyable. It is also demanding, tiring and stressful. We all need help and support at times.
Finding child care or practical support for a child with special needs can be really hard.
Young people
Other people expect so much from you but sometimes don't seem to understand you. This can mean being under pressure at home, at school, or with friends.
Everyone
You might be worried about a child's safety. Please do not hesitate but contact children's social care by ringing Call Derbyshire 08 456 058 058.
Derbyshire Children and Young People's Trust can help to meet the challenges.
Children's services may be able to help you solve any problems by:
- Giving you a chance to talk about the problems.
- Providing information, advice, practical help and support in your home.
- Helping with information about local nurseries, child minders, playgroups, parent and toddler groups, and short breaks for children with special needs.
- Supporting young people with their problems.
- Helping you appropriately share concerns about a child's safety or welfare with the right people who can make a difference
If you would like help or are worried you can Call Derbyshire 08 456 058 058. Your health visitor, school, or local children's centre's are all there to help or advise.
