Kennet Care offers residential children’s homes catering for the needs of young people between the ages of 8 and 17 years old.

We aim to create a nurturing environment that is safe and supportive, enabling young people to recover from past life experiences and grow to achieve their full potential.

We offer a warm and caring atmosphere to a young person or siblings, who, for whatever reason are unable to live within their own families. Wherever possible admissions and discharges will be in a planned way to accommodate and work with young people as long as is necessary to achieve the best outcome for their future.

Thank you so much for helping and caring for my child in my absence, I couldn't ask for more!Parent August 2024

We are so grateful of the way everyone supports us as a school.

Deputy Head Teacher (September 2024)

I have only been at Kennet Care for 3 weeks but wanted to share with you how supported I have felt having met a number of colleagues. Everyone has been welcoming, friendly and kind meaning I have felt at ease and not judged in any way.

This is very different than my last place of work and shows me that not every care organisation treats their employees the same way.

The Training & Induction Manager gets a special mention, she has been absolutely amazing and the amount of knowledge she has is incredible.

Employee (November 2025)

Thank you for everything you do for (child) and continue to do so. You are all amazing.

Parent (September 2024)

The home is lovely and nurturing, the children are looked after beautifully by dedicated staff. The manager should proud of all the work she has done and everyone is just fantastic!

CAMHS (November 2024)

I can go on and on about the amazing job that all the staff that work with (child) did for them. You are all exceptional, understanding, superb and outstanding.

Parent (September 2024)

Transitions which could have been very problematic have been smooth because of the diligent work completed by the home and management team, thank you very much for all you do.

Head of Commissing (June 2024)

With the consistent approach, clear boundaries and overall support you have succeeded in making the house a loving home which is what each child deserves!
