Helping Young People to Make the Bold Leap to Independence

At Bold Leap, we’re dedicated to assisting children and young people to take bold steps towards independence. This bold leap from care to adulthood can be challenging, especially for care leavers without the support and guidance of a family. Here, Bold Leap steps in, providing crucial support throughout the entire journey.

With 14 years of experience, a passionate team, and a track record of supporting children and young adults, Bold Leap is more than a support system— it’s the first step towards a fulfilling and joyful life.

Children’s Residential

With Bold Leap’s founder, Peter Buturo, at the helm, our children’s residential homes offer a depth of knowledge and care like no other. In addition to meeting children’s basic needs, we lean on our experience and go above and beyond by providing therapeutic intervention, access to education, health and wellbeing services, and more.

Meet Peter Buturo

With his years of extensive and direct experience with children in care, Peter Buturo’s passionate nature speaks for itself. His adolescence was similar to that of many children in care, and his inherent caring and helpful personality beckoned him to begin his career as a social worker. After practising as a social worker for 11 years, he recognises the importance of putting care over profit and has built Bold Leap on this foundation.

What People Say About Bold Leap

I was a big fan of the Bold Leap placement that I moved a new LAC on 29/07/2021. The home was clean, smelt really good and felt like a warm family home. The key worker onsite was very helpful and great at settling in.

I should have taken more photos but wanted to share the attached as his bedroom – which just looks far more welcoming than other providers we use routinely. Plus, they had him a toiletry set all made up for him. Overall, just lovely 😊

Bold Leap is owned by an experienced social worker and foster carer who totally understands the needs for children in care. This is a breath of fresh air as Peter's child centred approach has been evident throughout the time, we had placed a young person at Bold Leap in 2022. It really helps when you are working with a provider that cares.

Unlock a Bold Future With Bold Leap

At Bold Leap, we go beyond providing shelter by providing comprehensive support to young people, addressing various aspects of their lives that intersect to create the people they are. If you know a young person seeking unparalleled support on the path to independence, the beginning of that journey is just one bold leap away. Again, I think we need to include the childrens home in this section as we will be offering care.
