Parents and carers make an important contribution towards creating and maintaining Child-safe Child-friendly organisations.

Ask Questions: Talk with program staff and ask them about staff recruitment, child safety, levels of supervision, their code of conduct, how they handle complaints, do they welcome parent and children’s involvement.

Look Around: Take the time to have a look around, observe how staff respond to the kids’ needs and how the staff treat one another. Ask yourself, will your child feel happy, safe and involved in this environment?

Talk with your child: This is a great way to understand your child’s experience with an  organisation and how they feel about it.
