Touchstone Support Services offers comprehensive in-house respite support tailored to families with children facing various challenges, including learning disabilities, ADHD, Autism, and trauma, within the family setting. Our dedicated team understands the unique needs and demands that families encounter while caring for children with these conditions. We strive to provide a supportive environment that fosters growth, development, and well-being for both the child and the family as a whole.

Our in-house respite support services encompass a range of assistance and interventions, including:

1. Personalised Care Plans: We work closely with families to develop personalised care plans that address the specific needs and goals of each child. Our team collaborates with parents/guardians to understand their child’s preferences, triggers, and challenges, ensuring that our support is tailored to their individual requirements.
2. Respite Care: We offer short-term respite care services to provide families with much-needed relief from their caregiving responsibilities. Whether it’s for a few hours or overnight stays, our trained staff members are equipped to care for children with complex needs, allowing parents/guardians to take a break and recharge.
3. Behaviour Management: Our team includes experienced professionals who specialise in behaviour management techniques. We work proactively to address challenging behaviours, teaching coping strategies and positive reinforcement techniques to help children manage their emotions and behaviours more effectively.
4. Skill Development: We provide opportunities for children to develop and enhance essential life skills in a supportive and nurturing environment. From socialisation activities to educational support, we strive to promote independence and self-confidence in every child we serve.
5. Emotional Support: We understand the emotional toll that caring for a child with special needs can take on families. Our team offers compassionate support and guidance to help parents/guardians navigate the ups and downs of their caregiving journey, promoting resilience and well-being for the entire family.
6. Coordination with Other Services: We collaborate with other service providers involved in the child’s care, including therapists, educators, and healthcare professionals, to ensure a holistic approach to support. By fostering open communication and coordination, we strive to provide seamless care that addresses all aspects of the child’s well-being.
