Respite foster carers make themselves available on an as-needed basis. They aren' t the primary carers of the children; they act sort of like babysitters, for example, when the foster carers who care for the children (who often have difficult behaviors or special needs) need a vacation or break.
But they have been vetted and/or received training to deal appropriately with this specific population of children and their specific needs.
This is subject to the approval of the children ?
