School aged children
Find out all about the children who are looking for their forever homes
Parenting a child of school age can be both challenging and enriching. With sensitivity, honest communication and therapeutic parenting strategies, you could support a child where there may be more information known about their needs to reach their personal full potential. Although children of school age may have more memories of trauma they may have suffered or their birth families, they can be more independent and have many self-care skills.
Children of school age can often make ‘leaps’ in their development and personality when they are in a settled loving home.
