How will fostering affect my relationship with my partner?

It’s important to make sure that it’s the right time for both you and your partner to foster, as everyone in your home will play a part in a foster child’s life. Many of our current foster carers have said that they have loved fostering together, and that the support of family members makes the experience easier for them and for the children they foster.

If there are any challenges or changes to your relationship status during your time as a foster carer, your social worker and network of Rotherham foster carers will be there to support you.
