If you are in labor or if your baby is already born, after-delivery adoption is still an option. Contact us when you’re in labor, from the hospital, or even after you’ve returned home with the baby.We are always here to help you through the last-minute hospital adoption process!
It’s not uncommon for mothers to choose adoption directly from the hospital. This is often called a last-minute adoption or after-delivery adoption.
Placing your baby for adoption at birth is an incredibly brave, selfless, and loving decision. If you feel unprepared to parent, adoption offers a responsible option that provides your baby with the opportunity for a safe, secure, and loving future. At the same time, you are giving a waiting family the most precious gift they could ever receive — the chance to become parents.
At Private Child Adoption Agency, we understand that considering after-delivery adoption can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. Many hospitals and service providers already have clear processes in place to help make the transition as smooth as possible. And most importantly, as a birth mother, you will always retain the same rights and protections as any other woman choosing adoption. Our compassionate team will walk beside you every step of the way.
Even though it is a last-minute adoption, you will still have full control of your adoption plan.
Our team of adoption coordinators is well-equipped to handle last-minute adoptions from the hospital and will work quickly to coordinate everything necessary for your hospital adoption plan. All of our waiting families are prepared and are willing to travel anywhere in the country at a moment’s notice. Giving up your baby at the hospital for adoption may seem overwhelming, but we can help make the process as smooth as possible.

After-delivery adoptions can and do happen days, weeks, or even months after the birth of a baby. You can contact us anytime, day or night.

Before a family is eligible to adopt, they must complete an adoption home study through their state. The home study is a thorough and invasive process that lasts about three to four months on average. It includes a full FBI background check and an in-depth evaluation of their finances, marital stability, lifestyle, personalities, physical and mental health, medical history, background, education, reasons for adopting, and much more. All families who successfully complete this difficult process are prepared to be parents in every way and will provide a safe, stable, and loving home for your baby. You can be confident that whichever family you choose will give your child the best possible life.
