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-related 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.

As Jimmy Nixon ( Whitsunday Anglican School) shared with us: students are struggling to keep up with how fast AI is moving.
That’s why we love returning to schools year after year. We take the pressure off staff, bring up-to-date expertise straight to students, and give teachers the support they deserve 🫶

✅ Intentional
✅ Up-to-Date
✅ Expert-Led

Does your after-school chat sound something like this… 👀
Parent: “How was school?”
Child: “Good.”
Parent: “What did you learn?”
Child: “Don’t remember.” 🤦♀️
Now imagine a program so impactful that students not only remember it… they actually want to talk to their parents about it afterwards. 💬✨
That’s ySafe. 💛
And that’s why schools love working with us

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.

The social media ban is officially a thing.
And yep… the internet students are coming back to already looks different.
New platforms? Already popping up.
Workarounds? Being shared as we speak.
Questions from students? Very real. Very practical.
ySafe’s Social Media Ban Day helps schools keep up with the changes, spot the risks early, and support students without the head-spinning confusion.

More gaming, more scrolling… and sometimes more toxic online behaviour. 🥲
When things turn hurtful or overwhelming, your child doesn’t need judgement — they need support, safety, and someone in their corner ❤️💪
