How Do I Find Just the Right Parents for My Baby?

Posted by Adoption Agency Florida

· June 21, 2018

· No Comments

the right parents for my baby? If you’re thinking about adoption for your baby, we understand that you might be worried about finding the perfect adoptive family. Anyone who decides adoption is the right choice wants to make sure that their child has the best life. How can you make sure that your baby receives just that?

Lifetime has developed a process of supporting women as they search for the perfect families for their babies. When you contact us for the first time, you’ll get your own individual Adoption Coordinator. She’ll help you to make sure your adoption goes just the way you want it to. That includes deciding on the perfect adoptive family for your baby. At this point, you may already know the type of adoption profiles you’re interested in looking at. Your Adoption Coordinator will help you to narrow down your preferences more by asking you questions like:

Is the location of the adoptive couple important to you?

Do you picture your baby growing up in an urban setting, or have you always dreamed of living on a farm in the Midwest? As a nationwide, full-service adoption agency, Lifetime works with families across the US. This gives you lots of choices as you consider where your child will live.

Do you want your child to have brothers or sisters?

Some women wish to place their baby with a couple who can’t conceive. Others feel that it’s important for a child to grow up with siblings. So, they look only at adoptive families who already have kids.

Does it matter to you if your child looks like his or her adoptive parents?

Some women hope to choose an adoptive family who shares their own culture and ethnicity. Fortunately, Lifetime has hopeful adoptive families of many races and backgrounds.

What values are important to you?

Are you hoping for a couple whose religious beliefs match your own? Or maybe there other values that are important to you as well, like work ethic or political beliefs.

You can explore some of the adoption profiles of families we work with, by viewing our pages of waiting adoptive families.

Speak with an Adoption Coordinator confidentially and with no obligation, by calling 1-800-923-6784. Or, send us a message.

“Does putting my baby up for adoption make me a bad person?”

Posted by Adoption Agency Florida

· May 24, 2018

· No Comments

Question: “I’m like 99% sure that adoption’s going to be the best choice for my situation…but I’m worried what people will think. Does putting my baby up for adoption make me a bad person?”

Answer: Many women who are thinking about adoption struggle with this question. Unfortunately, lots of people are still clueless about adoption and how it works today. They may believe that a woman who places her baby is running away from their responsibilities or “taking the easy way out.”

But at Lifetime, we know it’s the exact opposite. Birth mothers are putting their child first and taking full responsibility for their child’s future.

Here’s how one birth mother puts it: “Plenty of people told me I was making a selfless and brave decision by putting my baby up for adoption. But honestly, I didn’t feel like that was true. I just thought out all my choices. Even though adoption was the best decision for my baby, it was also the best decision for me. I felt like I was selfish for wanting my old life back. I was ashamed that I couldn’t parent.

But, at the end of the day, the main reason I decided to put my son up for adoption was that I wanted him to have the best life possible. He deserved a life I couldn’t give him on my own. It wasn’t about me; it was about him!”

Birth mothers put their child’s needs before their wants and desires. It doesn’t get braver than that! They’re turning a difficult experience into something beautiful and full of love. And that is something to be proud of.

What if I Change My Mind and Want My Baby Back?

Posted by Adoption Agency Florida

· May 17, 2018

· No Comments

Question: “What if I change my mind about adopting my baby out, and decide I want to raise my child myself?”

Answer: We understand that adoption is a big decision and might make you feel uncertain. Many women thinking about adoption worry that they may later regret their choice, and wonder, “If I give my baby up for adoption, can I get her back later?”

Know that just by contacting our agency, it doesn’t obligate you to make an adoption plan. You can contact Lifetime Adoption Agency at any time to learn more about the unplanned pregnancy choice of adoption.

And, know that you’re always in charge during your adoption planning process. You can change your mind and stop the adoption process at any time.

Your adoption decision doesn’t become final until you give your consent after your baby is born. Until that point, you have the right to change your mind and parent your child.

During your pregnancy, you still have the chance to change your mind and stop the adoption process. You’re probably considering adoption because you want your baby to grow up in a stable home.

Choosing Your Open Adoption Relationship

After you’ve given consent to the adoption, it doesn’t mean that you have to end your relationship with your baby. Many birth mothers have found comfort in keeping an open adoption relationship with their child after placement.

Getting Free Counseling and Support

Adoption isn’t an easy choice to make, and so most women face difficult feelings before, during and after the adoption process. Your Adoption Coordinator is available 24/7 to provide professional adoption services at no cost to you. If you need help to sort through your feelings, Lifetime can connect you with a third-party licensed counselor for free. We want to help you explore your options, and ultimately make a decision that you feel good about.

To learn more about your choices and rights in the adoption process and the support that is available to you, call
1-800-923-6784 to talk with an Adoption Coordinator,
for free and with zero obligation.

Get Info on Your Choices With Open Adoption

Posted by Adoption Agency Florida

· May 3, 2018

Lifetime shares info on your choices with open adoption When you make an open adoption plan with Lifetime, you’re in the driver’s seat. You have lots of choices, including your baby’s adoptive parents, how things will be handled at the hospital, and how much contact you’d like after the placement. Today, we’re going to give you some quick info on the three major choices with open adoption!

Select the Adoptive Family for Your Baby

This is one of the most important choices with open adoption. We’ll ask you what you’re looking for in parents for your baby. Maybe you’re hoping that they live in a certain area of the country, or maybe you’re looking for a couple who don’t have any children yet. Your Adoption Coordinator at Lifetime will mail or email you profiles all about the adoptive families that fit what you’re looking for. In the profile booklets, you can see photos and learn about their careers, parenting style, interests, and many other things. If you’d like to look at couples now, you can browse our hopeful adoptive family websites.

Once you pick your favorite adoptive couple, you can interview them over the phone. We encourage you to ask them questions about topics important to you and get to know them better.

Plan Your Hospital Stay

You have the choice of how things are handled during your hospital stay for delivery. Here are some things to think about:

Who is allowed to be at the hospital when you deliver?
Would you like your baby in the room with you? Would you like your baby to stay in the nursery by the adoptive couple?
Once it’s time to check out, would you like to leave first, or should the adoptive couple leave first?
Would you like a copy of the newborn pictures the hospital takes?

Determine Future Contact

Another major one of your choices with open adoption involves how much contact you’ll have after placement. The relationship you have with your child and the adoptive family can run a wide range of options. Some women choose to have a very open adoption and get updates on their child through photos, emails, and visits. Other women are fine with not having visits and get updates on social media instead.

Along with your child’s adoptive parents, you’re able to determine the amount and type of future contact you’d like to keep!

Whenever you’re ready to start learning more about your choices with open adoption, you can call Lifetime at 1-800-923-6784.

How Do I Know My Baby Will Be Safe?

Posted by Adoption Agency Florida

· April 19, 2018

· No Comments

Adoptive family and children on the beach in Florida We know that you want to pick the perfect adoptive family for your baby. When you’re looking at adoptive parent profiles, they’ll probably all say things that you like, and appear to be nice and friendly.

But, as one woman says it, “how do I know these couples are going to be good parents? How can I know for sure whether my baby will be safe?”

Keep reading to get insider info about the background checks and intensive screening that everyone has to get in order to adopt!

How Do the Adoptive Families Get Evaluated?

An adoption professional will screen and evaluate the hopeful adoptive couple. In-depth screenings and background checks are performed, and the couple will have a social worker visit them at home. The social worker is there to check out whether their house is a safe place for a baby or child. The adoptive couple is interviewed by the social worker, who asks questions to make sure they’re qualified and ready to be parents.

The adoptive couple has to pass criminal background checks, prove their income through payroll stubs or tax records, and get physicals to make sure they’re healthy.

Here’s a quick list of what’s included in the evaluation process to adopt a child:

Background checks
Multiple interviews with each adopting person
Medical history
Questions about the stability of a couple’s relationship, their family, and discipline practices
Personal references
Criminal record, child abuse, and FBI clearances
Physical exams
Income tax records
A tour of their home and surroundings

All of this combined is how Lifetime knows that each adoptive couple has good morals, is financially secure, and in a stable marriage. Before they can adopt, Lifetime adoptive couples are required to pass an intense screening process. As you can tell, you can be sure your baby is going to a safe and loving home with Lifetime!

And it doesn’t stop at placement. After your baby goes home with the adoptive family, the social worker and agency will conduct follow-up interviews and visits. They’ll ensure that your child continues to flourish. A regular part of every Lifetime adoption is phone conversations, doctor’s reports, updates, and pictures.

Do you have questions about adoption? Lifetime is available 24/7; you can text or call us at 1-800-923-6784.
