Safeguarding Consultancy
Safeguarding consultancy for small businesses working with children
If you work with children and young people, safeguarding isn't optional. It's a legal and moral responsibility, and for many small providers it can feel overwhelming to get right, especially without a dedicated HR or compliance team behind you.
That's where I come in.
With Level 3 Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and Safer Recruitment qualifications and a background in compliance and operations across public and private sector organisations, I provide practical, jargon-free safeguarding support tailored to small businesses like yours.
This is for you if:
What I offer
Policy writing
I write and review safeguarding and child protection policies, safer recruitment policies, and supporting procedures, all aligned to current statutory guidance including Working Together to Safeguard Children 2026. Documents are written in plain English and tailored to your setting, not copied from a generic template.
DSL support
Not every small business has access to experienced safeguarding expertise. I offer remote DSL support for whoever holds the designated safeguarding lead role in your organisation, giving you a knowledgeable point of contact when concerns arise, helping you think through next steps, and making sure your response is consistent and well-documented. You retain DSL responsibility internally; I'm the expert resource behind you.
Compliance audits and reviews
I review your existing safeguarding arrangements against current requirements and give you a clear, honest picture of where the gaps are, along with practical recommendations for putting them right.
Why it matters
Ofsted, local authority inspections, and insurance providers are increasingly scrutinising safeguarding practice in small independent settings. Getting it right protects the children in your care, your staff, and your business.
