This free Child’s Feedback Questionnaire is a clear and child friendly way for children, kids and young people to share their views about their time in respite care and support care. It is a printable PDF worksheet that helps them express their feelings and experiences in a simple format, supported by illustrated rating scales that make the process easier for those who may find it hard to describe their emotions.
The questionnaire focuses on key themes that matter in short break services, including safety, welcome, comfort, activities, privacy, house rules, support from adults, behaviour, kindness and emotional wellbeing. It explores whether the adults listen, explain things clearly and offer help when the child feels upset. These topics give children space to talk openly about what feels positive and what may need to improve.
This resource is suitable for parents, carers, foster carers, short break carers, residential staff, teachers, social workers and other professionals who support children in respite or support care placements. It can be used in reviews, key work sessions, planning meetings or day to day check ins to ensure the child’s voice is heard. It strengthens participation, encourages honest feedback and helps adults understand the child’s lived experience so services can respond to their needs.
This downloadable PDF is a practical tool for anyone looking for feedback forms, activity sheets or printables that support communication, wellbeing, emotions, relationships and overall quality of care within respite and support care settings.
