A California temporary guardianship form (short-term custody form) is used for an informal guardianship that you can authorize yourself as opposed to one that requires approval by a California court. Our documents are drafted to give temporary guardianship without having to going through an expensive and time consuming court procedure. These documents do need to be witnessed and notarized which can be easily done at your local bank.
A California temporary guardianship form is a type of power of attorney to give another adult the temporary guardianship over a minor child or children for a specific length of time, usually less than 9 months. In almost every state you are considered a minor until you are 18 years old.
Whether a child staying with a relative while you are away, traveling, or staying with a friend because of an emergency, it is advised to have temporary guardianship forms giving another competent adult the permission to care for your minor child.
Our HIPAA compliant temporary guardianship forms were drafted by a licensed California attorney and updated for 2010.

Important Note About California School Enrollment.
If the temporary guardian (caregiver) will be registering and enrolling the child for school, additional legal language is almost always required by the school. Without a California care givers affidavit, health care power of attorney, and a medical information sheet incorporated with your guardianship form, the school is likely to refuse your paperwork. We are the only company offering these complete temporary custody forms for a minor child.
A Recent Satisfied Customer Had This to Say:
I would like to let you know how very satisfied I was as a customer
using this site. I needed to show proof that I had temporary
guardianship of my niece to go to school. The school was giving me
the run around about getting a document like yours. I was even
directed to go to the local court house and get an attorney which I
had no time for.
I was browsing different sites and found EXACTLY what I needed from
your document site. I was able to purchase the form, fill it out,
and get it notarized quickly. My niece was able to start school
immediately!
Thanks again! Naisha T.
