Staffordshire

I started fostering with Parallel Parents after it was recommended to me by a very experienced carer couple. They had been foster carers with multiple agencies but once they switched to PP they never left. Their praise was well founded, the agency has a great approach.


The stoke team in particular are dedicated and passionate about supporting both me, and the child in my care. There is a real family, team playing atmosphere to all communication and I always feel well supported.


Since starting my fostering journey, I feel a sense of accomplishment and privilege to be able to start to make a difference in a child or young persons life. There are lots of challenges along the way, but seeing the child in your care come out of their shell as they begin to relax and feel safe with you makes it all worthwhile.

Your social worker will be on hand 24/7 and live absolutely no more than an hour away from you. We make sure you have support as locally as possible! Get in touch now to start your journey.

Hi
I'm Sam and I have worked for Parallel Parents and Care Today for 25 years.

I am a supervising social worker and work with some amazing foster carers and children.

I have so many wonderful memories 💖
I have been part of hundreds of children's journeys and I love to see them flourish ✨️

I enjoy taking the children out to have some fun while our foster carers have a well deserved break ❤️

I Hope that I am lucky enough to support hundreds more children for another 25 years.

Hi, My name is Elise. I am a supervising social worker at Parallel Parents, I have worked with the Stoke/Staffordshire team for a couple of years now since completing my university placement with Parallel Parents. I have worked with all ages of children and find my role extremely rewarding when I get to be a part of a young person's journey, I also enjoy supporting my foster carers and I have a positive relationship with them, it is an honour to work with them.

In my spare time I like keeping fit by going to the gym or going on a nice walk at the weekends. But I mostly enjoy spending time with my nearest and dearest and going on new adventures.
