Little Acorns Fostering gives necessary training and information to new and existing foster carers. To provide the best standard of care you need to have all the right knowledge. Becoming a foster carer is something which is considered to be very rewarding and something which is becoming more and more popular among a wider range of people. Many people believe that it should not be seen as a job but a chance to care for a child in order to give them a stable upbringing. It doesn’t matter if you are new to something like this, there are many places that you can go to in order to receive all of the information and relevant training that you might need. A fostering agency would be the best place to go to as they will be able to make you fully aware of what it is to be a foster carer and in many cases they will help you at every step of the way. As with many other occupations there are some training aspects you will need to undergo so that you know exactly what is involved, your chosen agency will provide these for you and will talk you through each step in order to become successful. Little Acorns Fostering are one such company who are available 24 hours a day to each of their carers as they understand how important it is to be one. From the outset they offer courses such as the skills you need to start and will also make you aware of any new skills or knowledge you will need to be aware of the latest issues. They strive to make you also feel part of a family by making sure you are able to contact other foster families for any additional help and advice that you may need. Registered Manager Cheryl Jillions says: “Although it may be a long process to become an approved foster carer we work very closely with each person in this time so that they are fully aware and prepared for what lies ahead. At the same time if you feel you need any additional training, advice or help then we will work with you in order to provide you with this so you can rest assured we are there for you at all times. We like to reward our carers and actively encourage them to attend meetings to discuss the company and its on-going direction. Not only this, but we offer a 0.25% share to further this feeling of a family run business.� About Us: Little Acorns Fostering are a family run business who are dedicated in offering the best service to both the children who have been affected by the care system and also to the families who are registered and placed with them as foster carers.
