We are experienced.

We have been doing this for over six years full-time and many years before on a part time basis. Currently over a hundred couples a year find their baby through our advertising program. We are proud of what we do and strive to be most ethical. We expect the same out of the adoptive parents and other professionals that we work with.

We are educated.

Expect friendly and competent work. If you don't get it, call us and let us know.

Our preference is to work through other professionals.
Most of our adoptive families come to us from other professionals and we are always looking for more sources of committed  adoptive families. We have found that adoptive couples referred to us from attorneys and agencies are more knowledgeable about adoption, more grounded in reality about the world of adoption and, overall, much easier to work with.   If you have adoptive families that would like to work with us, please contact us.           

It is the responsibility of the adoptive parents to hire professionals to do the legal and social work.  As a professional, it is better for you to contract these services for your adoptive family.  You can often negotiate a better price.  You will also understand the law and lingo better.  In general, things will go smoother if you take an active role. 

We have worked with a number of agencies and attorneys throughout the country.  We recommend them to adoptive parents for legal work and social work for our situations.  We are always looking for attorneys and agencies familiar with caring for birthmothers.

We can work with most adoptive parents.
We have worked with adoptive parents from almost every state.  (We do not work with families from Virginia.)  We are not an adoption agency but rather an advertising service.  If you have any questions about the legality of paying for advertising in your state, talk to other parents that have adopted or an adoption attorney. 

Although it is our preference to work with you in conjunction with your local agency or attorney, we do have many couples who contact us directly.  This is often the case because the adoptive couple is in an isolated area or on a low budget, especially when doing a minority adoption.

To work with us fill out an adoptive parent intake.  This will get you on file.

Upon request we will provide you with the name and contact information of both adoptive families that have worked with us and other professionals that work with us on a regular basis.
