Expectations from foster parents
We have high expectations of our families and of our young people. We expect much more of our foster families than simply a cosy bed, delicious, healthy meals, interest in homework and delight in success. As a By the Bridge family you will provide:
- Consistency
- Security
- A warm physical environment
- Resilient attachment
- Belief in the child’s potential
- Understanding that behaviour has meaning
- Determination to find a way to help.
