Module 4 – Contact & Emotional Support – Carer

A Guide for Foster & Kinship Care Practitioners

Why this resource

For children in out-of-home care, family contact is not an optional extra; it is a core part of their identity, safety and emotional world. Even when contact is complex, inconsistent, or shaped by trauma, family relationships remain psychologically significant for the child. As a carer, you play a vital role in supporting the child through the full emotional arc of contact including the lead-up, the time during contact, and the transition back into everyday life within your care.
