I’m a single parent and have been a foster carer for three years now. I believe that kids should be able to live safely and be in a home where they can thrive.
I’m single and in my 30s and observed that there are kids out there who need some guidance. If I can make a positive difference to a child’s life then it’s worth a go.
We both gave up our jobs to become full-time carers. So far we have cared for 85 kids over the past 12 years.
Fifteen years ago, my first experience with fostering was unexpected. Our family went from 2 to 6 overnight. Things were very different back then.
