We have been social workers for over 20 years and we understand how the role of fostering can be a rollercoaster of emotions. Our foster carers feedback that they would not have this any other way as the rewards far out way the challenges. Seeing a child become confident, learn to trust others and gain love for themselves is what being a foster carer is all about.
Mulberry Foster Care have provided care for children including sibling groups, children with disability’s, children who display sexualised behaviour, those with challenging behaviour, mental health issues and attachment disorders. Each child is unique and brings something different to your family – humour and thick skin are essential, as are understanding, compassion and ‘stickability’. Children can test you but making it through those difficult periods is worth all the effort. One of our social workers would be happy to talk through any questions you may have so don’t hesitate to get in touch.
