Interim Foster Care
Bethany provides interim foster care for newborns while their birthparents make their final decision concerning adoption or parenting. Providing this care is an incredible way in which a family can take an active part in supporting parents who have chosen life for their child. In addition to providing lots of love and attention, foster parents are involved in transporting the infants for visits, taking pictures, following up with medical care and keeping a record of their progress while in care.
Foster families love and nurture a baby as their own, while realizing their care-taking is temporary. The average stay of a baby is one week to two months. Such an important task requires much love, flexibility and willingness to work with birthfamilies as well as adoptive families during this transition time in an infant's life.
Bethany actively recruits families to provide care for infants and welcomes the opportunity to speak to families about their interest in this program. For more information please call our office at 757.499.9367 or fill out our contact form.
