Jacob has a lovely smile that lights up the room and his giggles are infectious to watch.
What does Jacob like?
Jacob is a very gentle little boy, who is happy and calm in his familiar surroundings and he has a very good relationship with his foster carer and her family.
Jacob loves being tickled and he will smile at his carer and make eye contact to encourage her to do this again; he also likes to hold her hand and walk from one room to another in the house. Jacob enjoys listening to music and he will make excitable noises to the different music he hears through the television or the radio.
His foster carer says: “He is a real joy to care for”.
Demonstrating a real ability to learn
Jacob has global development delay but is making good progress in terms of physical development, as well as demonstrating a real ability to learn.

- Able to accept Jacob for who he is, his emerging personality, developments and changing likes and dislikes and to manage uncertainty in future development.
- A one- or two-parent family;off we encourage enquiries from the LGBTQ+ community.
- Jacob’s future family must be able to nurture and care for Jacob until adulthood and beyond and demonstrate a sensitivity about the world in which he lives.
Full training and support offered
