What to Expect While Fostering and Adopting

Building bonds with your foster children: Foster parent attachment strategies


Listen Later

Understanding the different types of attachment disorders in foster children is critically important to understanding how to best parent them. There are 4 different types of attachment disorders that we will discuss on today's episode. I will also share a list of strategies to help your foster child begin adjusting to your home and family. 

We will cover many topics in today's episode including clear boundaries, patience and grace, creating routines for your children, the importance of play, being trauma informed, support for the foster parent, celebrating every small win and my upcoming membership group.

I would love for you to head on over to my private Facebook group after you listen to this episode and share which strategies you use in your home and add to the list of what you find important.

I truly believe it is possible to help foster children begin to attach and find healing from their trauma and you are such an important part of this.

So, go grab your cup of coffee and let's dig in.
