I know of several people who do foster care that have had infants placed with them. One of my friends got one directly from the hospital because the mom took drugs in the hospital. Of course it is important to note that they start as foster meaning that bio parents rights have not been terminated. They might get visitation. And if the parents meet the expectations of the social service plans then they might get the children back. If they don't then they will have the option to adopt them. Talk to a foster care/adoption agency regarding this and find out what your options are.

Best of luck to you,
Samantha
