Seeing the smile on a child’s face when they realize they’re finally safe—that’s what makes all the challenges of foster parenting fade away.
When a child first arrives in our care, they often come with a sense of uncertainty and fear. They may have experienced trauma or instability, leaving them feeling vulnerable and alone. As foster parents, our role is to provide them with a safe and nurturing environment where they can begin to heal. Our job is to listen, comfort, and help them feel seen and valued.
