Contract Type: Full-time (Flexible, home-based)

Are you an Early Years Professional ready to take your skills beyond the classroom or nursery setting?
You already understand how to nurture, guide, and support children as they develop. Now, you can use those same skills to make a life-changing difference — by providing a stable, caring home for a young person who just needs the right environment to thrive.
Foster Wales Flintshire is looking for compassionate, committed individuals near Haslingden and Rossendale to become foster carers for children who are already doing well in their communities but need consistency and support to continue their journey.
Your experience in early education, child development, or family support could make an incredible difference.
About the Role
This role focuses on helping young people transition from residential care or other high-support environments into a nurturing family home. These young people may have faced difficulties in the past but are now ready to flourish with the right guidance and care.
You’ll welcome a child or young person into your home and support them full-time as part of your own family — with ongoing professional training, supervision, and wraparound support every step of the way.
We’re Looking For Individuals or Couples Who:
Have experience in early years, childcare, or youth support
Can offer a full-time, stable and nurturing home environment
Have a spare bedroom
Hold a full UK driving licence
Are open to training, teamwork, and ongoing personal development
Ideally don’t have children under 16 living at home (but each case is considered individually)
What You’ll Receive
Financial Support:
£50,000 annual support package
Weekly fostering allowance up to £258.79 (approx. £13,453 per year)
Additional allowances (up to £1,035) for birthdays, holidays and Christmas
Support & Development:
Personal support from a Foster Wales Flintshire team member
Access to a dedicated “buddy” carer for hands-on help
Specialist training (including child development and trauma-informed care)
Peer support and well-being groups
Other Benefits:
50% discount on Council Tax
Blue Light Card for discounts nationwide
Membership to The Fostering Network
Access to the Mockingbird family model (where available)
Recognition through the CareFriends rewards app
