I can’t say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Linda and her team at Cradle of Hope. Linda’s expertise, style, and accessibility through the entire process set our experience apart from the experience of so many other adoptive families we know. We’ve also been fortunate to establish a very open adoption with our daughter‘s birth mom. This was a goal we had going in to our relationship, but there a lot of logistical and emotional pieces to navigate which might not have possible without Linda‘s guidance. Anyone would be lucky to have Cradle of Hope on their team.

We particularly appreciate how candid and down-to-earth Linda was throughout the adoption process. She was in regular communication with us at all stages of the journey. She was sensitive to, and respectful of, all parties in the adoption triad. We felt well-supported during both challenging and joyful times. Cradle of Hope guided us to the best possible outcome – the adoption of our daughter!

I couldn't speak more highly of Cradle of Hope! I contracted with them to help facilitate the adoption between the birth mom and myself. They were very compassionate to both the birth mom and myself. They went out of their way for us and always answered our questions, day or night. Their guidance through this process was invaluable.

We had a wonderful experience with Cradle of Hope. The staff were friendly and welcoming right from the start, with fast response times to all of our questions. Our assigned social worker provided us with many resources and we felt like she stood by us through the process. She helped us sort out some tough questions and guided us to be truly self-reflective. We will always remember her as part of our adoption story and we are excited to work with her as we begin our adoption journey again.

It is very important when you are starting your forever family to have people who are invested and committed to creating a positive experience for everyone. The professionals at Cradle of Hope gave us this experience. They provided “on site” staff for emotional support immediately following the birth and placement of our son. Cradle of Hope remained connected with us as we transit the post placement process. Cradle of Hope is a wonderful agency, we highly recommend and will request their continued assistance as we grow our forever family.

We are so grateful to have worked with Cradle of Hope while adopting our daughter. They took care of so many details and had excellent communication with us. The support they provided at the hospital was amazing. We were very thankful for the compassion they had for our daughter’s birth mom both before and after the birth. Cradle of Hope provided so much guidance to us through the process and was able to provide valuable resources to our daughter's birth mom.
- Matthew & Rachel - Adoptive Parents
We understand that international adoption is not inexpensive. Here at Cradle of Hope we want to do all that we can to ensure that any person willing and able to care for a child is given that chance.
