About Disabled Children Service North -The Outback
We at Disabled Children Service North - The Outback are proud to provide specialist home care across Chesterfield and the surrounding Derbyshire community, supporting children and young people with learning disabilities and autism in the place where they feel most comfortable: their own home. Based in Chesterfield, our team works directly within the familiar surroundings of each family we support. By delivering care in the home environment, we help children remain connected to the routines, spaces, and loved ones that bring them a sense of security and belonging. This approach allows us to tailor our support to the unique rhythms of each household, whether that means assisting with daily activities, encouraging independence, or providing respite that gives parents and carers a well deserved pause. Our specialism in learning disability and autism care means our approach is shaped around understanding, patience, and genuine respect for each child's individuality. We recognise that every young person communicates, learns, and experiences the world differently, and we take the time to get to know each child so that our support feels personal rather than procedural. For families, this means working alongside a team that listens carefully, adapts thoughtfully, and celebrates progress in all its forms. We aim to be a reliable partner in your child's journey, offering consistency, compassion, and a steady presence you can trust. The Care Quality Commission has rated our service Good across every domain, including Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led. This rating reflects the dedication of our team and offers families reassurance that the care we provide meets recognised national standards in quality and safety. It also speaks to our ongoing commitment to listening, learning, and improving so that the children and families we serve always feel valued and well supported. If you are exploring care options for your child in Chesterfield or the wider Derbyshire area, we warmly invite you to get in touch. Choosing the right support for your family is an important decision, and we are here to answer your questions, share more about our approach, and help you feel confident about the path ahead.
