Why Choose Care Visions
Who Are Care Visions?
Care Visions has built a fostering community where you can thrive and help others do the same. With over 20 years of experience, we’ve been supporting children and young people through high-quality, compassionate fostering that puts relationships first.
We believe every young person deserves a safe, stable place to grow – and every Foster Carer deserves to feel supported, encouraged and valued. That’s why we’ve created a fostering community built on trust, warmth and connection.
We’re proud to offer trauma-informed care, local decision-making, and responsive support that reflects the needs of our carers and the children they care for.
We are committed to:
- Keeping siblings together wherever possible
- Supporting children in maintaining important family relationships
- Upholding the principles of Getting it Right for Every Child (GIRFEC), Getting it Right for Everybody (GIRFE) and The Promise
We’re wholly Scottish-owned, which means the decisions that matter are made close to home, not by a distant head office. And we take great care to match children and families thoughtfully, with the long term in mind.
What You’ll Receive
- A strong, caring community: You’ll be part of a warm and welcoming network, with peer support groups, reflective learning opportunities and carer-led forums. We also offer a Buddy System, connecting you with an experienced foster carer who can offer personal insight, encouragement and support as you start your journey.
- 24/7 support: You’ll have a dedicated social worker, access to senior managers. From regular one-to-one visits to 24-hour on-call support, our team is here when you need us.
- Practical support: Generous fostering payments, 14 days of short breaks each year, babysitting assistance, and legal protection through membership to The Fostering Network.
- Educational advocacy: Our Senior Manager for Education Services works directly with schools to support children and young people’s journey.
- Personalised learning and development: These services are provided within our core Care Visions team to support the children and strengthen carer-child relationships. Minimum 20 hours training each year.
- Celebrating carers: Your experience, dedication and insight are deeply appreciated. Carers are fully involved in our matching process, and we work closely with you to ensure placements are thoughtful, supportive and set up for success.
“A couple of times I’ve thought ‘have I got the energy for this all over again?’ but the flip side is there’s so many rewarding moments... Fostering has been my job and vocation. You accept the challenges as part of the job, but it doesn’t really feel like a job. It just feels like life.”
