I\u2019m pregnant and considering adoption, now what? <\/span><\/h1>\n

With Heart of Adoptions (HOA), expectant mothers are not alone. We are here to support expectant moms and their decisions for their child on a personal and genuine level. There is no rush to make any decision, and we have a knowledgeable and caring staff that are here to listen. We help expectant moms at any point in their pregnancy and provide many resources even after placement. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/h1>\n

If I choose to place my child for adoption, do I pick the family? <\/span><\/h1>\n

Absolutely. Each expectant mother receives one-on-one attention from their caseworker. The expectant mother decides what they\u2019re looking for in the baby\u2019s future family and her desired level of communication with the family and baby. Then, based on her preferences, her caseworker will present profiles and pictures of hopeful waiting families that meet her specified criteria best. All of HOA\u2019s adoptive families presented have completed careful and thorough background checks and are home-study approved.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cO<\/span>ur goal here at <\/span>Heart of Adoptions, Inc.<\/span><\/a> is to find and present a profile to an expectant mother that she truly connects with. Ultimately having a sense of peace and confidence in her selection<\/span>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

How much will placing my baby for adoption cost me? <\/span><\/h1>\n

Choosing adoption for your baby is free of charge. The adoptive parents will cover all of the expenses for the adoption including medical and legal fees. Additionally, depending on the birth mother\u2019s specific circumstance and eligibility, Heart of Adoptions, Inc has resources and assistance available to help with food, toiletries, and living expenses. <\/span><\/p>\n
