At MammaMia, the safety and wellbeing of every child is our top priority. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all the children who attend our lessons and activities in Liverpool, Chester, Manchester (Sale) and online.

All our teachers hold an enhanced DBS check and complete safeguarding training appropriate to their role. We follow UK safeguarding legislation and guidance, including Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026 and Working Together to Safeguard Children 2026, and our policies are reviewed every September.
