Let's talk about fostering and working.

Looking after children is a full-time job - but that doesn't stop you from having another job if it can flexibly fit around foster caring.

The most important thing in fostering is to support children in a safe environment. Foster care gives children a chance to explore their identities and embrace their unique backgrounds.

Children Of Colour specialise in working with foster carers from all backgrounds for all types of placement. Chat with us at [email protected] / 020 8665 4322 today.

Fostering with pets - what are the rules? 🐶

It's a myth that you cannot foster if you have pets. As long as pets are healthy, clean, well-behaved, and safe, it is possible to foster children with pets in the home.

Of course, it depends on the need of the child on a case-by-case basis.

Luckily, Children Of Colour know all the ins and outs of all questions and queries about fostering. Get in touch with an expert at 020 8665 4322 or email [email protected].

Fostering myth: You must be a homeowner

Do you have to be married to foster?

The most important factor in fostering is finding a great fit for carer and child to create a supportive environment which nurtures their heritage and future.

This means you can foster if you are married, unmarried, single, or divorced as long as you fit the eligibility criteria.
