Why Lime Grove Cottage?
We believe that all children and young people should have the opportunity to grow up in a nurturing family environment. Living in a residential setting should never be a barrier to their potential, and every child should have access to the same opportunities for growth and development.
At Lime Grove Cottage, we offer a homely atmosphere supported by a dedicated team, working to replicate the security and care of a family setting.
Our home fosters stability and consistency through child-centred routines that balance individual needs with shared responsibilities. We provide clear and meaningful boundaries while encouraging positive risks. Lime Grove Cottage offers a stable environment built on trust, where experienced and committed professionals support our children and young people in a respectful, non-judgemental manner.
About Lime Grove Cottage
Our home is nestled within serene and expansive grounds, our newly refurbished 3-bed bungalow offers a beautiful setting for children and young people.
Each spacious room features stunning double doors that open to the garden and provides an ideal space for outdoor activities with the addition of a sensory room which enriches the therapeutic experience. Providing calm and comfortable surroundings enables our children and young people to feel safe and enriched in their daily lives.
Personalisation of bedrooms is encouraged to reinforce Lime Grove Cottage becoming a home away from home. We create memorable experiences for those residing with us at Lime Grove Cottage as those memories lay a crucial foundation for a happy fulfilled future.
Promoting independence and personal growth
Our team plays a key role in fostering the independence and personal development of the children and young people at Lime Grove Cottage.
We empower young people by equipping them with essential skills to ensure positive outcomes as they transition from our service into family homes, permanent residences, foster care, and eventually into adulthood. To support this, we hold weekly meetings with the children and young people we support, encouraging them to actively participate in planning the upcoming week’s activities. Whether it’s trampolining or swimming, these activities are selected collaboratively by our young people.
In addition, our team works closely with the young people to prepare nutritious, balanced meals together, further enhancing their independence. By supporting the development of independent living and employability skills—especially for those of working age—with compassion and encouragement, we embrace Nugent’s holistic approach to care.
