Social services What young people say about fostering

Toby

Being a foster brother is a very special role for me to do. I see the babies come and go, which is both sad and happy.

It is very jolly in my house because there is a foster baby there. Because mum is a foster carer it means she is able to collect me from school. To me it is normal for mum to be able to pick me up from school, but it’s actually quite special because not all people’s mums have jobs that mean they’re able to pick their kids up. I love the job my mum does and I think she does a really good job.
