Safeguarding 

Every child deserves the best possible start in life and the support that enables them to fulfil their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its own right. (EYFS 2017)

Testimonials

“Lillie’s Lodge took good care of me, I highly recommend them. It was easy to communicate with Dionne, if I ever had any concerns, Dionne would be there for me. It’s a safe and supportive environment with lots of enjoyable activities for a new parent.”

“Lillie’s Lodge is a lovely place! I received all the support and help I needed, and more. I’ll always appreciate my time there as it’s a lovely house run by lovely people.”

“Thank you to everyone at Lillie’s Lodge! It’s a very special place that’s not easy to find. I’m very lucky to have lived here. Whilst being at Lillie’s Lodge I have felt nothing but support when raising my daughter now moving on to my own home. I am going to miss the lodge and the bonds I have created with the other girls. Thank you to Dionne for giving me and my daughter a safe place to live when we needed help and for being kind enough to create a home like this that will help a lot of families in need!”

“I would recommend Lillie’s Lodge to mum’s that need that extra support, plus somewhere nice to live. I appreciate everything you did for me and my daughter.”

Lillies Lodge in Kent Testimonial

“Since being at the Lillie’s Lodge, I’ve had so much support to become more confident and independent as a mum to my daughter. It was a big change from living with my mum and to move on at only 16 years old, but I can thank Dionne and Tracey at Lillie Lodge for their support and encouragement and willingness to help.”

“I would like to say thank you for Dionne taking me into her lovely and homely lodge. At first I was unsure but after I settled in this place had become mine and my baby boy’s home. We are both comfortable being here.”

“I feel Lillie’s Lodge gave me help, support and independence, plus boosted my confidence to be on my own with my daughter. Everyone was so kind to me and my daughter.”

“I am very grateful for my time at Lillie’s Lodge, as it helped me in a difficult time and also helped me gain independence for me and my little girl. I highly recommend this place.”
