Are you a Nursery Practitioner ready to take your skills to the next level?
You already support children with their development, routines, and emotional wellbeing. Now, you can apply those skills where they’re needed most—by offering a safe, nurturing home to a child who just needs the right environment to thrive.
Foster Wales Flintshire is looking for committed individuals near Haslingden and Rossendale to become foster carers for children who are already doing well in their communities—but need stability to continue their journey.
If you’ve worked in nurseries, preschools, or early years settings, your experience could make a lasting impact.
About the Role
This role focuses on supporting young people moving from residential care or other high-support settings into a family environment. These children may have experienced challenges in the past, but they’re now settled in school and within their communities.
You would welcome a child or young person into your home, supporting them full-time as part of your own family life—with ongoing training and support provided 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
