It's Private Fostering Day on Wednesday. Private fostering is when a child or young person under 16 years old is looked after for 28 days or more by someone who is not a close relative, guardian or person with parental responsibility. If this sounds like you or someone you know then you need to let the local authority know.

The Visitors

By Rhianna
The children turn up at our door,
with bags and coats in hand.
Another pair of shoes on our floor
and someone new to understand.
Excitement bubbles in the kitchen,
as the kettle boils and the paper works filed.
But something in our brains is itching
as we start to play and the social worker smiles.
What if one more pair of shoes
means there’s no room left for mine?
Do I have to share my breakfast?
What if they scream and cry?
This house is loud already.
Will the new child be kind?
And what about my mum and dad,
For me will there be time?
Well, what I’ve learnt throughout the years,
time shared is not time halved.
And the more siblings that came and went
increased the size of my heart.
When people ask me why I’m kind
Or not so quick to judge,
I say I grew up fostering
and hold not the slightest grudge.
I talk of just how proud I am
to have them come to stay,
of all the funny stories
and the day they went away.
Wherever they are now
I hope that they’re okay.
Because sharing time with them
made me who I am today.

Thank you to all the birth children in our fostering families, you make a difference. The little things you do can help a child feel welcome, safe and part of the family:

-Playing games.
-Showing them around your home.
-Inviting them to something you enjoy.
-Helping them feel like they belong.

Being part of a fostering family can mean sharing your home, family and everyday life with a child or young person. There may be fun, laughter and happy memories, but also change, uncertainty and goodbyes.

This week it's children of foster carers week and we'd like to say thank you to all the birth children who share their parents and welcome children into their homes.
