Foster Parent Training

At Angels, we
thoroughly prepare you for your wonderful job of nurturing a foster baby
in your home. We want to give you all the tools and help you need to become
an amazing foster family
The Angels Parenting Program
Our acclaimed Angels Parenting Program teaches you not only practical
parenting skills, but also the key principles of development and psychology
required to raise a happy, well-adjusted child.
Our program includes:
- PRIDE training: Developed by the Child Welfare League of America,
this is the standard in foster parent training.
- Bonding/Attachment Theory: Teaches you how to develop empathy
and trust with your baby or toddler.
- Touchpoints: Pediatrician T. Berry Brazelton's program explains
child development "from a physical, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral
point of view."
- Infant Care: Information on how to specifically care for infants.
