FAQ

  • What if I live in a different county / state than you and have different requirements?

    It is true! You will have different licensing requirements. This course shows you additional ways to ensure safety that go beyond the minimum. I found that I had to modify a lot more in my home than what was required by my agency. I include tips that I wish were shared with me from the beginning.

  • Can I gift the course to a friend who is thinking about fostering?

    Yes! There isn't a formal way to gift a course through this portal, so you will need to sign up for them.

  • What if my house is different than yours?

    It likely will be! :) I walk through general things to consider to ensure safety and also build connection in the home that can be applied to a variety of spaces and configurations.
