Direct Care Staff
Foster + Heart is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization serving the Treasure Valley. Our mission is to ignite the hearts of our community to foster and meet the needs of children in foster care. One expression of this mission is transitional homes for children ages 0-17 entering the foster care system. These homes will house up to 8 children at a time and will be staffed with direct care staff trained to care for children in some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare are able to place children with us until the right foster family is found for them. This ensures that children are placed in the right home and that sibling sets can stay together so that while they may be facing the unknown, they don’t have to face it alone.
We're hiring a full time team member for our homes in Meridian and Nampa. This is a floater position where you will work shifts between both homes as needed (Days/Nights/Weekends).
