Find out more about fostering

Although the average age of children in foster care is slightly older, babies and toddlers under 4 years old can need foster care too, sometimes newborns straight from hospital when they are just a few hours old.

In Wales, nearly 2 out of 5 children in care were aged 10 to 15, and fewer than 1 in 20 were under 1 (source: Welsh Government, March 2022) (external website).
