Hi Lyn, your supposition is correct,
In 1887 Thomas John Barnardo began a scheme of 'boarding out', sending 330
boys to country homes to be fostered.
In 1889 Thomas began another scheme, boarding out the babies of unmarried
mothers. While the mothers lived and worked in one family, their babies were
looked after by a fostering family nearby.
