Requirements to become a foster parent
Many adults are eligible to become foster parents in their state but do not always realize it. Each state in the U.S. has regulations and requirements for licensing foster parents. Florida does not require parents to own a large home or quit their jobs and become stay-at-home parents. Florida foster parents must:
- Be 21 years of age or older
- Prove good health and ability to care for a child
- Maintain a stable income
- Pass a background screening
- Finish 30 hours of foster parent training
- Complete a Home Study
The required training course is free to aspiring foster parents. It helps parents learn how to foster children and become licensed to provide foster care in Florida.

Amy and her team are beyond helpful and educated. They helped us navigate the home study process quickly and without a hitch. Susan in the Tampa area is amazing and made us feel so comfortable during our interview and confident in our decision. If you're looking to do a private home study in Florida, give Connecting Hearts a call, you will be so happy you did!

We are so thankful for the professional way Amy and, in our case, Tara conducted our Home Study and the follow up. They were always there to answer any questions we have had in our unique adoption circumstances, and Tara did a thorough job in her personal visits and reports. She has also helped advise us on several issues. We appreciate Connecting Hearts helping us navigate a process that was brand new to us.
