about us


If you knew our carers you’d realise they came from all walks of life. What they all share is a love for children, a ‘can do’ approach to life and the maturity and guts to stick at it when the going gets tough.

The basics are fairly obvious:

hoody
  • a spare bedroom
  • experience of looking after children
  • time in your life to care for children
  • support from your partner, family and friends
  • no convictions for offences against children
  • a ‘can do’ approach to life
  • a relish for being with and caring for children

After that it’s all up to you. We need people from all walks of life, all religious and racial backgrounds and all variations of relationships and family.

If you think you’re a one-off, wait till you meet us and the children!
