Become a Foster Carer

You probably can! If you feel you have the skills and passion to make a difference to children’s lives then this is what Childhood First integrated Systemic Therapeutic Fostering team ask of our fostering families:

• You are aged over 21-there is no upper age limit
• You are passionate about children achieving their potential
• Each foster child over 3 years of age has their own bedroom
• Children under five years are placed in non-smoking fostering families
• Pets are non-aggressive or dangerous
• Homes may be rented with landlord permission, or owner occupied
• You are in good health
• You are willing and open to reflective practise and to learn from experiences and your own personal and professional development.
• You are able to work as part of our team approach

Childhood First welcomes and values applications from individuals from diverse ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds.
