Lewisham Safeguarding Children Partnership - Keeping Babies Safe Campaign

Statistically, children are most at risk of fatality or significant harm in the first few years of life. Lewisham Safeguarding Children Partnership aim to raise awareness of the risks to babies and infants to help keep them safe.

Their new Keeping Babies Safe page provides parents and care givers with information, advice and access to further support in relation to:

Water and Bath Safety
Coping with Crying
Safer Sleep
Your Health Visiting Service
Useful Links
Resources for parents who may need support or equipment for their baby

To translate the new Keeping Babies Safe page into your home language, click on the Select Language button at the very top of the page and click the down arrow and select your preferred language.

If you have any concerns about your baby or you’re worried about your mental health or emotional wellbeing please contact your GP or Health Visitor. If you or your baby are in immediate danger or there is a risk to either of your health please phone 999.

“My child and I have really enjoyed coming to Little Explorers. It has helped my child to get used to see other babies and have interaction with them, which has been really important for him after the pandemic.”

“It's absolutely fab to be able to have access to all of the Domestic Abuse services in one place and to just click on a link to get to the website.”

“The Children Centre is our favourite place to come, we have been coming here since my child was 6 months old, he is now 4 years old and is still enjoying! Well done staff”

“I have just found the ‘taking care of ourselves’ section, which is massively important for us all, especially compassion fatigue.”

“The help and support that my family support worker gave me was above and beyond, she was always there to listen to me and make me feel like I was good enough and I was being heard.”

“The Outreach Team have such outgoing, friendly and fun personalities and made each Outdoor Learning session a great experience.”

“The Explorers session has helped my child a lot with his communication and his development. It’s really been impactful for him; we are really grateful to have this opportunity to attend the session and meet other parents as well.”

“The sessions help my daughter with speaking English, as well as helping her to listen and follow directions. I am very happy, my baby is very happy, and I feel relief when I come.”

“The Children Centre is very beneficial for my child, she has developed lots of skills e.g., sharing toys and naming colours. Also, the staff are very friendly and helpful.”
