Social Care, Without the Runaround

Independent social work support that gets past the red tape and puts your child’s needs front and centre

Navigating care for your child or young person shouldn’t feel like bashing your head against a brick wall. Yet too many families find themselves stuck between local authority red tape, providers who don’t listen, and endless delays. At Little Nellie’s, we cut through the noise. Our social care services give you clarity, independence, and practical support to actually get things moving.

What social care means for your family

Social care isn’t just about services — it’s about making sure your child or young person has the right support to live well, feel safe, and keep moving forward. But too often families get stuck in the system: bounced between departments, slowed down by red tape, or left waiting for months.

At Little Nellie’s, we put families back in control. Our social care services are designed to give you clarity on what support is needed, independence from council delays, and practical help to get the right plan in place. Whether it’s a one-off assessment or ongoing case management, we make sure the focus stays where it belongs — on your child’s needs and future.

Care Assessment, Planning & Brokerage

When you need a clear picture of care needs and how to meet them, we step in. We’ll assess your child or young person, create a tailored care plan, and help broker the right services. Independent, practical, and built around your family — not a council tick-box.

about us

Why Choose Little Nellie's?

Does your local authority assessment miss the real needs? Is the report out of date, incomplete, or still stuck on a waiting list? You’re not alone — too many families get left hanging while their child goes without.

Social care shouldn’t feel like begging for crumbs. It should be clear, fair, and actually work for your family. That’s why we do things differently.

We don’t do suits or jargon. Just straight talk and straight answers. If something’s broken, we’ll say so. If there’s a gap, we’ll help you plug it.

Our work is parent-first. You’re already juggling enough — our job is to make the process lighter, not heavier.

When it comes to councils, sharp evidence speaks louder than sob stories. Our reports are tight, factual, and hard to wriggle out of. That’s why they’re taken seriously.

And we’re upfront about costs. Fixed fees. No hidden nasties. You’ll always know what you’re paying for before you say yes.
