Kyllimoons is a detached three bed-roomed property. The homely, well presented home is managed by an experienced and qualified Home Manager and residential care team.
The young people have the benefit of a village setting with easy access to local services and link to Glasgow, Edinburgh and south of the border. We received the following feedback from stakeholders and Care Inspectors:
“Staff helped me stick in and achieve in school. They also got me a tutor – this helped me get my Highers and my Nat 5s”
“Staff have really helped me. For 2 years solid staff took me to appointments and waited outside for me. This helped me talk more in the room, because I knew they were outside and would always support me no matter what” (Feedback from young people 2019)
During the inspection we spoke with three young people who spoke highly about living in Kyllimoons. Young people told us staff looked after them very well and are great to them.

At Kyllimoons, we support children and young people through Therapeutic Parenting. By working therapeutically, we help change behaviours from those driven by a desire to self-harm to those where self-care feels a more satisfying option. The home receives the invaluable support of a dedicated in-house psychologist.
