A foster family for Lucy

Lucy* is an energetic, four-year-old girl with big blue eyes and soft curly brown hair.  She has a great temperament and loves to laugh and have fun.

Lucy is a vibrant and active pre-schooler, who loves to play. She doesn’t like to be idle for too long and likes to have something in her hands to keep her busy. Like all young children, Lucy is curious, adventurous and can be a little bit mischievous, so she requires constant supervision. She loves hugs and attention.

Lucy has a few words but is mostly non-verbal, however she will make herself understood with actions. Lucy has experienced some trauma prior to coming in to care but she has made enormous progress emotionally.

Currently Lucy attends creche full time which has been a positive change for her, providing her with consistent care, stimulation and routine. She has an aversion to certain textures, likes dry foods, and putting things in her mouth. She is due an assessment to understand her needs and to provide guidance on how best to support her.

Lucy is an adorable child who has experienced a lot for such a young age. She has developed well with the right level of consistent care, routine, love and affection, and she will continue to do well in a loving foster home.
