Our "Home Sweet Home" is bright and spacious with a beautiful nursery just waiting for a baby. Our backyard has an enclosed deck where the children love to play and get fresh air all year round. The deck overlooks our gated, in-ground pool and pool house, affectionately called the ‘little house’ by our children. It’s bigger than we thought it would be and is a small replica of our house!
We live in a suburban neighborhood in Upstate New York with lots of children of all ages and ethnicity. In fact, we’re blessed to have a sweet little girl Ellie move in across the street this summer who shares the amazing journey of adoption.
We used to take long walks together before we had our children and have heart to heart talks about God’s plan for us and pray that we would be blessed with children. Now, we enjoy bringing our children with us everywhere and taking these same walks to the two pond down our street and watching magnificent views all from the comfort of our home all the while marvelling at God’s goodness and perfect timing.
We look forward to sharing all of this as a forever family.
Financial Support
Expectant mothers who choose to make an adoption plan may qualify for some level of financial assistance during their pregnancy. However, each person's situation and specific needs are different. Your adoption social worker can help you determine what level of assistance you qualify for and deserve. Many expectant mothers qualify for financial assistance to cover basic pregnancy and living expenses, including but not limited to - transportation reimbursement, utility assistance for phone, water, and electricity/gas, maternity clothing and supplements, etc.
FAQ’s about placing a baby for Adoption
I'm considering giving my baby up for adoption. How much does that cost?
It won't cost you anything. If you choose to place your baby for adoption, all of your medical and legal fees will be covered and you may be eligible for financial assistance with other pregnancy-related expenses.
I'm experiencing an unplanned pregnancy and don't know who the birth father is. Can I still place my baby for adoption?
Yes. Even if you don’t know the identity of the birth father, you can still choose to make an adoption plan. However, every adoption situation is different. The adoption social worker you’re assigned to will get to know you and your story first, and then guide you through the process accordingly.
When is the right time to talk with an adoption professional?
You can make an adoption plan at any point in your pregnancy, even after the baby has been born. But, it's important to start the process as early in your pregnancy as possible. Connecting with those resources will allow you to gain access to important medical services, including prenatal care, to help ensure a healthy pregnancy.
When I create an adoption plan, will I get to choose who is in the room with me during delivery?
One aspect of your adoption plan is the "Hospital Plan" an outline of how you'd like your hospital stay and delivery to go. You can craft this on your own or with the help of your adoption social worker. But everything is up to you. You’ll be able to choose who comes to the hospital with you, who is in the room with you during delivery, and how much time you’d like to spend with the baby before signing the final papers.
How much contact will I have with the adoptive family after I place my baby with them?
As part of your adoption plan, you'll determine whether or not you’d like to have an open or closed adoption or something in between. Open adoptions may include phone calls, messaging (via social media, email, or text), and/or periodic visits each year. Closed adoptions may include no contact at all or annual updates provided to the birth parent(s) by the adoptive family. Each post-adoption relationship is different and can vary based on what an expectant mother chooses in her adoption plan.
