Why Footprints?
Posted 24 October 2023

In this article, we would like to pay tribute to some of the fantastic extracts from the carers at Footprints Foster Care, advocating why Footprints is the right decision when selecting a fostering agency.
Don’t just take it from us, read on for some personal notes from the carers…
” I choose Footprints as they were a smaller agency, and their website drew me in to wanting to find out more about fostering. After a visit from a social worker, who I found to be warm and friendly, I felt that this was the agency that I wanted to be a part of. I’m so glad that I did, as you become a part of the Footprints family, you’re not just a number who has a room and a bed for a child, you and the child are valued equally, and they will always do their best to match you and the child. “
Isn’t it great to read that Footprints was a great decision? We believe you are never a number and have a small community of carers and minimised caseloads, meaning you really get to know your social worker.
” Footprints are a small, local agency. We felt it would be more personal than a big agency where you don’t know anyone. As it is local, so is the training which also was important to us. Footprints seemed and are more supportive than competitors. “
Footprints Foster Care is proud to have satisfied carers that feel supported. This is part of the Footprints journey where Stephanie and Vanda set out to support carers ‘every step of the way’ resonating to footprints in the sand, taking steps towards brighter futures.
