Answers to Commonly Asked Questions

Can I choose a family for my baby?

Yes. We are working with many couples who are pre-approved to adopt. You may also choose someone who has been recommended to you.

What if I haven't had prenatal care?

That’s ok. If you decide that you would like to begin getting prenatal care, we can help with that too. No pressure. 

What if I struggled with substance use during my pregnancy?

We understand this happens sometimes. No judgement here – just support. 

What if I don't know who the father is?

It’s ok if you don’t know who the father is or where he lives. We will walk you through the details of that too.

I keep hearing about an "adoption plan." What does that mean?

Great question! An adoption plan is a detailed description of what you envision for both you and your child’s future. It includes your preferences for things like:

  • What type of adoptive family you’re looking for; if they have other children, if they share common interests with you, if they share your beliefs, etc.
  • What type of contact you want to have with the family and baby.
  • A hospital plan for when the baby is born. What will you be comfortable with?  How much time would you like with the baby?


Your caseworker will help you develop your adoption plan, and she will be there to support you throughout the entire pregnancy, and after delivery.

What kind of contact can I have with my baby after the adoption?

You can choose an adoption that allows for updates with information and photos for up to 18 years. You can also request visits once or twice a year. It’s up to you to decide the level of openness in your adoption. Adoptive Families respect and understand your need to know that your child is well cared for.
