Transferring Foster Carers

At Skylark Fostering, we appreciate foster carers may choose to transfer to another Agency for a whole range of reasons. However, once having made that decision, they want the process to be managed efficiently, with sensitivity and as speedily as possible. Remaining at an Agency during a process that rolls on for weeks or months is inevitably stressful and unsettling. If fostered children are part of the household, this can impact upon them also.

We therefore fully understand the importance of a smooth transition for experienced foster carers joining our community.

With extensive experience in foster carer recruitment and transitioning foster families between agencies, we are able to manage this process with skill and care. We ensure it is smooth, professional, and meets all regulatory standards, providing efficient support for you as a foster family and for the children in your care during this important change.

Testimonial from one of our transferring carers:

“Skylark fostering are a Lincolnshire based agency which is local to us. They offered great knowledge and experience within the fostering industry. Upon enquiring we really clicked with the agency’s views and aspirations and felt we would have great support from them. 

We transferred from another agency, therefore understanding the assessment process. The process can feel long but skylark were honest with everything happening behind the scenes. Panel was great and Skylark transferred us with ease once approved. 

The support from Skylark has been fantastic. They are able to advise and step in when needed. Their wealth of knowledge shows. I know I am able to reach out day or night. Couldn’t ask for more from an agency.”
