OUR COMMITMENT

Toto Children's Care Services: A Social Enterprise Revolutionising Child Care

At Toto Children’s Care Services, we’re more than just a care provider – we’re a social enterprise dedicated to transforming the landscape of residential care and education for children with complex needs. Our innovative approach combines sustainable practices, not-for-profit principles, and a deep commitment to enhancing the quality of life for children, families, and communities.

Our Social Enterprise Model

As a social enterprise, we operate with a dual focus: delivering exceptional care services while driving positive social change. This unique model allows us to:

1. Reinvest for Impact: We commit to reinvesting 100% of our profits back into our services. This sustainable approach enables us to continually enhance our specialist programmes, therapies, and facilities, ensuring we’re always at the forefront of child care practices.

2. Foster Economic Growth: By providing quality child care, we’re contributing to a more equitable economic recovery, particularly in rural areas with high unemployment rates. We create meaningful employment opportunities and support local economies.

3. Build Strong Community Roots: Our services are deeply embedded in local communities, ensuring we remain responsive to local needs and contribute to the social fabric of the areas we serve.

Dedicated care and education

Our holistic approach addresses the emotional, behavioural, social, and developmental needs of children through:

  • Specialised residential care homes
  • Tailored education programmes
  • Long-term care strategies
  • Successful transition support to adulthood and adult care services

Local care, lasting impact

We believe in providing care in the local areas where children have grown up and where their families are based. This approach not only supports children’s well-being but also strengthens community ties and promotes social cohesion.

Excellence through innovation

Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our:

  • Mandatory and non-mandatory training programmes for carers
  • Ongoing research initiatives
  • Guidance from a board of clinical specialists
  • Partnerships with local organisations, schools, and healthcare providers

Advocacy and support

As passionate advocates for children in care, we work tirelessly to ensure their voices are heard and their rights are protected. Our advocacy extends to our staff, with regular mental health check-ins and support systems in place to ensure their wellbeing.

Measuring our impact

As a social enterprise, we’re committed to transparency and accountability. We regularly assess and report on our social impact, measuring our success not just in financial terms, but in the positive changes we bring to children’s lives and communities.

Sustainable practices

We’re dedicated to operating in an environmentally responsible manner. From our energy-efficient homes to our waste reduction initiatives, we’re constantly seeking ways to minimise our ecological footprint while maximising our social impact. Our ‘Trees for 100’ programme plants a tree for every 100 hours of care we provide.

Looking to the future

As we continue to grow and evolve, our focus remains steadfast on our social mission. We’re constantly exploring new ways to innovate in child care, always with the goal of creating brighter futures for the children we serve and contributing to more resilient, equitable communities.
