Existing subscribers

If you already subscribe to the Be My Parent newspaper, you can pay a ‘top up’ fee so that your subscription includes the online service too. This fee will depend on how long your newspaper subscription has left to run.

Please contact the Be My Parent team on 020 7421 2666/5/4 and we will help you get set up.

IFAs and VAAs

Independent fostering agencies and voluntary adoption agencies also need to subscribe.

Important information

  • Currently there are fewer children on the website than there are in the Be My Parent newspaper. However, the children’s profiles on the website are often longer and more detailed, with extra photographs and, in some cases, a video clip. As we continue to grow and develop the Be My Parent website, we expect the number of children featured to increase. We are currently offering discounts to families who subscribe to both the website and newspaper services.
  • Although you do not need a satisfactory CRB check by an adoption or fostering agency to view the children’s profiles on this website, you will have access to a greater number of profiles if you do have one.
  • Please note that the children featured on this site are 'in care' in the UK and are available for placement in the UK only.
