Are you thinking of putting your baby up for adoption? Choosing a trusted adoption agency is an important step. You may also have many questions, including what to do next and whom to talk to.
Contacting local adoption agencies can connect you with adoption professionals who can listen to your concerns and guide you through the adoption process. Courageous Hearts Adoptions is here to help you find answers to your questions, learn about your options, and the support available.
But how do you know which agency may be right for you? Here is a quick guide to find a trusted agency to place your baby for adoption.
Find a Safe Place to Talk
As a birth mother, you should feel safe when you talk about your pregnancy. A good adoption agency will listen to you without judging you. You can talk about your life, your worries, and your hopes for your baby. Check if they offer 100% confidentiality and explain the entire process from beginning to placement.
Ask About Your Choices
Adoption is not a one-size-fits-all plan for every birth mother. You may have choices about many parts of the process. A trusted adoption professional should guide you about your options. These may include choosing an adoptive family, creating an adoption plan, a hospital plan, and deciding what level of contact you would like after placement.
Ask About Support During Pregnancy
Pregnancy can be challenging, particularly when you are facing financial and personal concerns. You may need help getting to doctor visits, as well as additional support with covering expenses for housing, food, and daily needs. A licensed agency like Courageous Hearts Adoptions will walk with you throughout the process and provide support.
Depending on the state laws, we offer our birth mothers financial assistance with housing, rent, transport, medical care, daily utilities, and more during pregnancy and up to six weeks post placement.

Positive Adoption Language Disclaimer –We understand that using words such as “give up” or “put up” to describe adoption can be hurtful and inappropriate. However, we must include these words in our blog posts to appear in expectant moms’ Google search results. While we promote positive adoption language, many expectant moms who come to us at first do not understand what that means. Therefore, our blog posts may use the language they understand, such as “how do I give up my baby for adoption” or “how do I put up my baby for adoption,” in order to explain how to create an adoption plan for their baby.
