You must have enough bedroom space for each foster child placed in your home. They must have a bed of their own and cannot share a bed nor sleep on a cot or trundle bed. A foster child may not share a bedroom with the foster parent unless they are under the age of one and sleep in a crib. An adult cannot move out of their bedroom and sleep on the couch to make room.

In many cases a foster child can share a bedroom with your child or another foster child of the same gender. Ask your local caseworker on the specific guidelines for your state.
