Hi I am a busy mummy with 6 children, I have always wanted to foster but I have always been busy having a family of my own..
I am now not having any more...
So I so pleased to be able to look into fostering ,, today I phoned up and spoke to some nice lady on the phone, the spare room I plan on using as my foster room in is quite small enough room for a small toddler bed or (cot )wardrobe chest of drawers and only a small play area..
I have said that I would only be able to foster 0 to 5 years at the moment due to this small room..( we do plan on moving some day )
My son who is 2 years old is in this small room at the moment but I am moving him in with his 2 brother, so the foster people are giving me a call to get things moving in 6 months...
I AM SO EXCITED but a bit worried they will say this room is to small to foster in..
Does anyone know if a bedroom has to be a certain size????
Any tips and advice would be lovely...
I know people might think I am mad to want to foster when I have a big family already but I want to help a child, and feel I can offer a child a loving home for as long as they need it..
Also if there is any foster mummy out there I would love to talk, so I can prepare for what's ahead in 6 months....
Sorry this post is a bit long ....and hope you are not
