Become a Foster Carer in Wexford

Children and young people across Wexford need safe, supportive homes where they can feel secure and cared for. At Fostering First Ireland, we are looking for compassionate individuals, couples, and families in Wexford who can offer stability and understanding to children who need it most.

Fostering is one of the most meaningful ways you can make a difference in a child’s life — and you won’t be doing it alone. Our experienced team supports foster carers every step of the way.

If you have ever considered fostering, now is a great time to learn more. Complete the enquiry form and our team will get in touch to help you understand what fostering involves and whether it could be right for you.

Take the first step today.

You may be able to foster if you:

• You need be over 25 years of age.

• You need to have a spare room.

• You must hold a full and valid driving licence and have access to a vehicle.

• You must have flexibility in your working arrangements.

• You don’t need to own your own home but if renting, you must have permission from your landlord.

• If you have children, your youngest child must be at least 3 years of age.

You don’t need previous fostering experience. What matters most is your ability to provide a safe, caring and stable environment for a child or young person.

As an independent fostering agency, we provide foster carers with personalised support and guidance throughout their fostering journey.
