'Foundations for Fostering' Training Course

From those who made telephone enquiries, some have now successfully completed the ‘Foundations for Fostering’ training course which took place in November 2008, May and September 2009, and April 2010. Their comments about their experiences so far to becoming Foster Carers with TimeWise include; “I thought the course gave me a good insight into fostering, especially with regard to birth parents and foster children’s feelings.” “I feel that TimeWise may fill a very important gap for children who have been separated from their birth family”.

TimeWise are now again seeking to recruit more Foster Carers living in North Dublin, Louth and Meath and will be hosting the Foundations for Fostering training course again during the year for all new prospective foster carers. If you would like further information, please do not hesitate to give us a call: (01) 842 45 25

Foster Carers

Foster Carers come from all walks of life. They are committed to helping young people make changes in their lives, and have an understanding of the difficulties facing these young people. They are an integral part of the TimeWise team in implementing the model.

We are always interested in hearing from anybody who would like to become one of our full time carers or alternatively one of our respite carers who could provide short term planned breaks for the young people.
