Small enough to know you. Experienced enough to support you.

Our offices
Little Acorns is an independent, family-run fostering agency based near Haverhill in Suffolk.
We recruit, train and support foster carers across Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex and nearby areas, helping children and young people find safe, stable and caring homes when they cannot live with their birth families.
Our size matters.
We have chosen to remain personal because fostering families need to feel known, heard and supported. Our carers have access to the people who make decisions, not just when things are difficult, but throughout their fostering journey.
We believe children do best when the adults caring for them are properly supported. That is why we place such importance on relationships, training, reflective practice and practical help when carers need it most.
“Our commitment and passion to families who are prepared to devote their time and efforts to such an emotional, yet rewarding task is second to none and at the forefront of our journey together.”
Cheryl Jillions – Registered Manager
Carers and children have easy access to all levels of the Little Acorns team any time of the day and not just when a crisis occurs. We go to great lengths to achieve the most positive outcomes for children in care and through the intense support and reassurance we provide, stability and belonging is achieved.
