Non-Traditional Foster Families in San Diego
Love Comes in Many Forms
Angels proudly salutes its diverse team of foster parents, many of whom have been fostering Angels babies for years in the San Diego area. We recognize that families come in many different forms: traditional Mom and Dad two-parent families, single parents, retired and widowed individuals and same-sex couples. Any family with all parents working outside the home may only foster children over 18 months of age. We encourage anyone with a willing heart who meets Angels qualifications to consider fostering an infant or toddler.
We welcome individuals and families of any ethnicity, religion, orientation, or age (over 21) to contact us to learn more. San Diego County only, please.
Parent Testimonials
“I am a single mother and I have two children, the youngest of whom is an Angels baby named Selena. I fostered Selena for 2 years and ultimately was able to adopt her. The members of Selena’s birth family, including her mother, father, two half-sisters and half-brother, continue to be involved in Selena’s life. Selena is in Kindergarten this year, is thriving at school, has a wonderful bond with her 10 year old sister, has many friends and talents, and is a complete joy for us to have in our lives! I am so grateful to Angels for allowing me, as a single mother, to become an Angels foster parent. “ – Leslie
“An amazing challenge — incredible results! I am a single gal who really really really wanted children in my life. It didn’t matter if they were my own or not, and I actually felt that there was great benefit in fostering a little one. The Angels mission resonated with me, and I pursued my foster parenting through them. I have been incredibly impressed with the Angels staff and the support they have provided. As a potential parent, you may not know yet how important that support is. It is vital. Annika and Sara have been by my side helping me through the challenges all the way. I can’t imagine going through this process with anyone else. My little boy is incredible! As a single woman, I am so grateful that Angels gave me the platform to get involved in this little boy’s life. We are all making a huge difference!” – Brandy
