Educating over a million Australian students, parents and teachers, ySafe's award-winning team

Since our inception in 2013, ySafe has become Australia's leading provider of cyber safety education. We are known for our eclectic team of child psychologists, ex-police officers and teachers who specialise in cyber safety. ySafe was founded in response to growing concerns amongst parents and school communities regarding children’s online activities, and the increasing prominence of technology-re

lated developmental and behavioural issues. ySafe's approach has also been one of a pro-technology ethos, uniquely focussing on the social & emotional components of cyber safety and online behaviours. Originally founded by psychologists, the need was identified for a multidisciplinary approach to cyber safety education and management. With that, our team expanded to include clinical psychologists, ex-police officers and teachers who are leaders in the field of cyber safety and social media. Our combined experience in child development, research, policing, and classroom contexts has provided us with a unique insight into the challenges and opportunities that participating in a digital environment presents to students, parents, and schools.

Banning platforms doesn’t make online risk disappear; it changes where risks shows up.
And students don’t need fear-based messaging to be careful online.
They need trusted adults who understand how young people actually use technology and how behaviour shifts when access changes.

Our Social Media Ban Day equips staff with practical, evidence-based strategies to guide students safely through the post-ban world.

Have you ever made a mistake… and the fear of the consequence stopped you from asking for help? 😣

Maybe you waited.
Maybe the problem got bigger.
And suddenly reaching out felt impossible…🚫

Teens feel this exact same pressure online.

They tell us:
📲“I was scared I’d lose my device.”
🤬“I didn’t want to get in trouble.”
🥺“I thought I’d disappoint someone.”

This is enough to keep them silent — even when they need support. 💭

But we can change that.
& consequences (not surprises or punishments in the heat of the moment) help teens feel safe coming forward early. ✔️ 🥰

A Family Digital Agreement or Contract gives everyone clarity, calm, and confidence when things go wrong — because mistakes will happen. 📄😅

With the starting at midnight , watch along as Patrick explains how we can lower the fear and open the door to real conversations 👇

“UGHHH you won’t get it” - how often you hear this in your house? 🙈

Does your teen shut down when you try engage with their online life? 😅

It’s easy to think they are just being private, growing up, or dealing with things themselves.

But what teens tell us, is the they don’t open up is the of being misunderstood, or the fear that “parents don’t understand”. 😔

Patrick is here with a few to break down that barrier and bridge that communication gap.
