does anyone know what help the foster team should giv you once your approved

the foster team in my area was brilliant. as i was going for the SGO they rushed through payment for a bed, also sorted stair gates and car seats for me. they also run a monthly meeting for all kinship carers which i can still attend. im sure others on here that have been carers for longer than me will be on here with lots more info. but i have given you what i got hope that helps

thanks babylove as much info as i can get will be appreciated as im not getting throu to em

I think its too broad a question Trapper. Is there any specific information you are seeking.

thanks restbite as im single on my own wi no family for miles andfreinds that are few and to old to look after children or are not geared up for that my house is small, adaptions to suit two young boys

If you mean safety equipment such as stair gates then yes, there should be no reason why they cant provide you with stuff like that or give you a payment so you can go buy them.

And Respite is something else that they can give you if you feel you need it occasionally.
