❤ Things I want you to know - from Fostered children to their Carers ❤

"I may struggle to accept kindness because I am not used to it"

A child may find kindness, care and affection difficult to accept, not because they do not want or need them, but because they may not have experienced them consistently in the past. The child may feel unsure about trusting others or believe that kindness comes with conditions. It is a reminder for carers to be patient, understanding and consistent, offering reassurance without pressure or expectation. Over time, these small, repeated acts of kindness can help the child build trust, feel safe and begin to believe that they are worthy of love, care and acceptance.

❤ Things I want you to Know - from fostered children to their carers ❤

"The love, patience and stability you give me today may change my entire future."

For a child who may have experienced trauma, uncertainty or disrupted relationships, the consistent love, understanding and security of a caring home can help rebuild trust, develop self-worth and create a sense of belonging. Small, everyday acts of kindness and patience can make a lasting difference, helping a child feel safe enough to heal, grow and believe in a brighter future. Remember that fostering is not just about providing a home today, but about helping to shape a child’s tomorrow.

❤ Things I want you to Know - from Fostered children to their carers ❤

"Change can be scary, even when it is for the better."

For a child in foster care, getting used to a new home, new people and new routines can feel overwhelming, even when these changes are made with the child’s best interests at heart. Past experiences may make it difficult for them to trust, open up or feel safe in a new environment. They may need time, patience, understanding and reassurance from their carer to feel settled and secure. With consistent care and support, they can begin to understand that change can bring positive experiences, new opportunities and a sense of belonging, even when it feels frightening at first.
