As a parent or carer you want to make sure your children are safe, happy and well-looked after. You try and protect them from abuse or neglect and help them grow up into confident, healthy and happy adults.

You will also want to know that the childcare professionals looking after your children are doing everything they should be to protect your child. You can view information and advice on our dedicated Dudley Safeguarding website.

We also have a number of useful publications below, including a copy of Dudley's Safer Parenting Handbook. The handbook contains a host of information about different issues facing children, young people and families, frequently asked questions and useful contact numbers.
