I am thinking about adoption. Can you help me with my decision? (back to top)
Yes. We can answer your questions. You do not have to choose adoption just because you ask questions. We can answer your question's, listen to you, and help you with what you need.
Everlasting Adoptions can provide you with the information you will need. We give you choices and your options & families to choose from. We trust you will make the best decision for you and your baby. We will give you adoptions options, but the choice is yours.
How do I know the couple I choose will provide a good home for my family? (back to top)
Everlasting Adoptions only works with licensed adoptive parents. This means that all of our families have been through what is called a “home study process.” This is where they are given physicals, background information is collected &, their home is visited and their fingerprints even have to clear FBI for criminal background checks. They are also required to attend seminars to better understand the adoption process and how to raise a child that feels so special that they were adopted.
Can I choose the family that adopts my baby? (back to top)
Yes, you can choose. You can look at couples “profiles.” These are booklets that give you a glimpse into their lives. They are filled with photos and a letter for you to read. You can talk to them and meet with them if you wish. We can help you figure out what you might be looking for in a couple, and possible questions to ask.
Will I have any contact with the couple I choose? (back to top)
Yes, if this is what you want. If you do not want contact, we respect your decision. You can talk with them and meet with them. You choose the type of adoption you are comfortable with. Most birthmothers choose to receive letters and pictures from the couple.
Will this adoption cost me anything? (back to top)
There is no charge to you being a birthmother. Adoptive parents are able to pay for legal fees and in most states can help with reasonable pregnancy-related expenses & medical bills that are not covered by insurance or public aid.
What if I live in another state? (back to top)
Everlasting Adoptions works with birthparents and adoptive parents throughout the United States.
Women choose adoption for many different reasons. Listen to your heart in doing what will be best for your child. Only you can decide. You may be financially unable to support a child or if you are already raising children, unable to support another child. You may be at a place in your life where you are not emotionally ready to care for a new baby. We understand the difficult choices you have to make and are here to support you.
