Finding a Family to Adopt Your Baby

Sometimes, it can be difficult to figure out what it is that you want. When you’re trying to determine what type of family you want to adopt your child, American Adoptions of Kansas will help you complete these three steps:

Step 1: Identify what types of families you want for your baby

You could already have an idea of what type of family you want your child to grow up with. For instance, you may be searching for a biracial couple looking to adopt in Kansas or LGBTQ+ adoptive families. Or, you may not know what type of family you imagine your child with.

No matter what you’re thinking, your American Adoptions of Kansas adoption professional can help. They will ask you some basic questions that should give them a better grasp of what characteristics you’re searching for in adoptive parents. Because we work with so many families at once, you can find the type of family you are looking for. This is important, because many smaller agencies only work with a small group of potential families.

With American Adoptions, you can find the perfect family for your baby because you’ll have so many options to consider.

Step 2: Browse hopeful adoptive families’ profiles

After your adoption professional has helped you determine what type of family you want, you’ll begin looking through adoptive family profiles that may match your preferences. These could range from families wanting to adopt Black children to gay adoption families in Kansas or anything else.

When you work with American Adoptions of Kansas, you’ll get to browse both print profiles and video profiles. When you’ve landed on a profile that stands out to you, your adoption professional can introduce you to them. Many prospective birth mothers feel “right” when they’ve found a good fit, so be sure to listen to your gut.

Kristen, a birth mother who worked with American Adoptions, echoed this sentiment.

“We had begun contact via phone and email exchange and eventually planned on meeting up,” she said. “They came to my house, and as soon as they got here, we did nothing but talk for hours upon hours until it was time to go out to eat. We talked more and more. It was almost as if we knew each other.”

Step 3: Get to know the adoptive parents

Once you’ve found the adoptive family for your child, you can start to get to know each other when you feel ready. Your adoption professional can set up a phone call for you and even mediate it if you want them to. After you have developed a relationship, you can move forward with your adoption plan. Also, you can maintain contact with them through phone calls, texts, emails or whatever forms of communication you feel most comfortable with.

Types of Families That Adopt

If you’ve found yourself wondering what types of families tend to adopt, then you should know that there aren’t types of people who adopt. The truth of the matter is that everyone adopts! This includes Christian adoptive couples, young couples adopting, Black adoptive families in Kansas and anyone else. Anyone who wants to build their family and has undergone an adoption agency’s thorough screening process can adopt a child.

American Adoptions of Kansas has over 30 years of experience, and this has allowed us to continually refine our screening process throughout those three decades. This ensures that you have only the best hopeful adoptive families to select from.

Many prospective birth mothers think that only certain types of families can adopt, but this is a myth. Here are some examples of the different types of families that adopt children:

  • Gay adoption families
  • Single parents looking to adopt
  • Biracial couples looking to adopt
  • Muslim families looking to adopt
  • And much more

Why People Adopt

There are many reasons that families choose adoption, but, generally speaking, there are certain situations that lead people to choose adoption. Some of these reasons include:

  • Infertility: Many adoptive families have experienced infertility. They may have been unable to have biological children, but adoption has allowed them to realize their dreams of parenting.
  • Love of children: Some people simply want to be parents! Many adoptive parents already have children and feel ready to begin again.
  • Desire to help: Because some people enjoy helping others, one reason that people like to adopt is that it helps provide a child with a loving home and support a prospective birth mother like you.
