Just as every carer is different, so too is every child or young person who requires care. For this reason, everyone’s stories will differ. However, one thing these carers all have in common is their selfless commitment to ensuring a safe and secure home for children and young people in need.
Bronwyn, Stewart and Kodi's foster care story
After having their daughter Emily, Bronwyn and Stewart wanted to have more children, however unfortunately, they were unable to do so.
After considering several options, including international adoption, Bronwyn found herself drawn to foster care and the idea of helping a child in need of care, love, and a home.
Here is their open adoption story.
