Parallel Parents jobs and careers

About Parallel Parents

Parallel Parents is an independent fostering agency which offers high quality placements for children and young people in need of foster families. With over 20 years of experience, Parallel Parents is both experienced and well established, and is currently rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted. The agency is committed to providing consistently high standards of care to children and young people, and their experienced team of Social Workers supports a range of different needs-led placements that are able to meet the diverse, individual and often complex needs of these children. The first priority of the agency is always the child or young person in their care. They believe that children have the right to a safe, stable and nurturing home, and their overarching aim is to recruit skilled and resilient foster carers who are able to offer children a positive substitute family experience where it is not possible for them to live with their own family members. The agency's objective is to meet and exceed the requirements of the Fostering Services National Minimum Standards and Regulations 2011 in order to provide children with the best possible experience of being looked after, the opportunity and support to achieve positive outcomes and feel safe, and the confidence and motivation to aspire to do their best. They continually strive to improve their service provision, with an emphasis on matching, quality, support and safeguarding.
