Tools and Trackers
Practical tools for people opening, managing and improving children's homes
Free, practical compliance and management-support tools. CHH tools help you turn guidance into practical action. They do not replace professional advice, statutory guidance or regulatory judgement.
Built to support your systems, not replace them
Many established providers already use dedicated care-management platforms containing their regulatory records, children's information and internal management oversight. Children's Home Hub does not seek to replace those systems.
CHH tools provide lightweight, practical support for tracking activities, deadlines, actions and readiness. They can be particularly useful for new providers, smaller organisations and anyone who wants a simple additional overview of key requirements.
Already use ClearCare or another care-management platform?
Keep using it. CHH tools are designed as supporting resources rather than replacements for established internal systems.
