Families are built in many different ways, and adoption continues to be one of the most meaningful. For hopeful parents, expectant mothers, and professionals working in the adoption community, having access to ethical, experienced, and compassionate support makes all the difference. That’s why we’re proud to introduce Heart of Adoptions Tennessee, Inc., a newly licensed Tennessee adoption agency based in McEwen, near Nashville, and serving families across the entire state.

Bringing Over 20 Years of Adoption Experience to Tennessee

While our Tennessee office is new, our foundation is not. Heart of Adoptions has successfully served the adoption community in Florida for more than two decades. That experience has shaped our approach: professional, ethical, responsive, and deeply centered on the needs of everyone involved in the adoption journey.

Our Tennessee agency is owned and operated by Jeanne T. Tate, a Fellow of the Academy of Adoption & Assisted Reproduction Attorneys (AAAA). This distinction reflects a high level of knowledge and commitment within adoption law and practice, and it helps ensure that the services we provide are grounded in both legal integrity and compassionate care.

By expanding into Tennessee, we’re bringing that same depth of experience and trusted reputation to families, expectant mothers, and professionals throughout the state.

A Full-Service Adoption Agency in Tennessee

Heart of Adoptions Tennessee is a full-service adoption agency, which means we support every step of the process. Whether someone is just beginning to explore adoption or is further along in their journey, we provide comprehensive services designed to meet real-world needs.

Our services include:

Home Study Services in Tennessee

The home study is one of the most important steps in the adoption process. We provide thorough, professional home studies in Tennessee that meet state requirements while also helping families feel informed and prepared. Our goal is to make the process clear, supportive, and respectful.

Post-Placement Services

Adoption doesn’t end at placement. We offer required post-placement services to support families as they transition and to ensure continued compliance with state guidelines. These visits and reports are handled with care, professionalism, and an understanding of how significant this adjustment period can be.

Expectant Mother Services

For expectant mothers considering adoption, we provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support and information. Every woman deserves to understand her options and make the decision that feels right for her. Our team works to ensure that expectant mothers feel heard, respected, and supported throughout the process.

Supporting All Types of Families

Adoption is not one-size-fits-all, and neither are the families who pursue it. Heart of Adoptions Tennessee is committed to an inclusive approach to adoption services. We proudly work with:

• Single individuals
• Same-sex couples
• Heterosexual couples

We believe that safe, loving, and prepared homes come in many forms. Our role is to support qualified families and help create ethical, thoughtful adoption plans that prioritize the well-being of children and the dignity of birth parents.

A Partner for Adoption Professionals in Tennessee

In addition to working directly with families and expectant mothers, we also collaborate with professionals across the adoption community. Attorneys, social workers, and other providers often need reliable partners for specific services, and we are here to help.

Heart of Adoptions Tennessee can:

• Conduct home studies for your clients
• Provide post-placement supervision and reports
• Share family profiles for expectant mothers when appropriate

Our team understands the importance of communication, timeliness, and professionalism when working alongside legal and social service professionals. We strive to be a trusted resource you can feel confident referring to.

Located in McEwen, Tennessee, near Nashville, our agency is positioned to serve families and professionals throughout the state. Whether you’re in a large city or a smaller community, our goal is to make high-quality adoption services accessible, responsive, and consistent.

Adoption journeys are deeply personal, and no two stories are the same. What remains constant is the need for experienced guidance, ethical practices, and genuine compassion.
