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.”
