Foster Carer Pay
At Quality Foster Care, we understand that fostering can be demanding at times which is why we pay our foster carers a generous fostering allowance so they can focus on giving their foster child or children the best possible care.
Payments will vary depending on the type of placement, please contact our team on 01268 795 597 for more detailed information.
For almost all Foster Carers, pay is tax-free and will not affect any benefits you may currently be receiving.
- Standard allowance for one child up to £470.00 – please note that this amount depends on the child’s age and whether you are also caring for their siblings.
- Parent and child – Allowances are defined on a case-by- case basis.
Payments are adjusted to meet their needs if a child is recognised as having additional requirements.
