What Our Carers Say About Fostering
Our foster carers tend to be very realistic in their views about fostering. We can always rely on them to tell it ‘Like it is,’ some will say that they have found it challenging while others will say that the child or young person fitted into their family and lifestyle without any difficulty.
- It is worth it?

Audio Testimonial
All staff (administrators, social workers, managers) and directors get to know you – like an extended family. When I am in need, there is always a member of Acorn Team, at the end of the phone for reassurance and help, that to me is Acorns added value. Acorn may be small in business size but Acorns team is big in support, commitment and quality.

After a long search and researching fostering agencies we decided to join the Acorn family. That was back in 2012 and we are very proud to say it is an amazing family to belong to. It’s a whole change of life looking after foster children, integrating them within you family and friends. It has had a very positive effect on the whole family. You have your up and down days but even on those down days there is plenty of support from the managers, supervising social workers right down to the admin staff who also play a great role in the agency. The other foster carer met up and help with support or just over the phone.
Traning is given on all subjects and to help with specialised needs for the children. We have grown a lot as a tam in these years and provide a safe environment for the children from them to grow and learn. Sometimes just to help get through life with the abuse and traumas thy have gone through. We cannot change the past but w can help change their future.

We were unsure when we first applied to foster, however Fostering has changed our lives for the better, helping us grow as individuals and as a family unit. It’s the most challenging but amazing, inspiring and rewarding thing we have ever done. Acorn are so supportive and always available when you need them.

We are a fostering family with Acorn and have been for almost 8 years. Fostering is not just a job it is a way of life. We get so much pleasure and satisfaction from the role we play in these young people’s lives. I really cannot ever imagine not being a fostering household now. Of course, it has it’s difficulties but the pleasure also comes from getting over these obstacles and making a real difference. My advice if you are thinking of becoming a foster carer is just do it. Become part of our family here at Acorn.

Acorn fostering agency are very professional and if you have any problems, they come to your aid straight away. They make you feel like you are part of a big family and make you feel really at home and really care for all the foster children in care. It’s a privilege to be a part of their team.

Having worked in the caring profession for 22 years prior to this role, I had always harboured the desire to become a foster carer. I had a few looked after children come into my nursey setting and I used to work alongside their social workers. This gave me an insight and increased my urge to become a foster carer. I have now been fostering for over 10 years! It has been challenging as well as fulfilling and I am really proud to be a foster carer. My experiences have made me the person I am today and I am very thankful for the opportunities I have been given.
A. Leicester City
We foster because we enjoy looking after/ helping children in need (Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children from troubled/war-torn regions overseas or Looked After Children from broken homes in the UK), providing them a safe and secure family environment where they can learn & grow. This is our way of giving something back to our local community and we get great satisfaction from seeing all the children grow up as confident & independent individuals who can go on to further study or independent living.
