If both fp's work full time...
If my dh and I both work fulltime, will it be impossible to have small children placed with us? I am thinking of the age range of 2-5. We are open to older children too but I was curious what our chances would be to be approved for a younger age range if we both work full time?

It will be fine. They don't discriminate against working parents, in some cases with foster children there may even be a stipend to help off set daycare costs.

I'm single and work. All my foster kids were in daycare and it was paid by DSS.

Both me and my husband work and our children receive NCI. This pays for daycare. Your SW must refer you to them. It should be no problem.
