Finding the Right Match for Your Child

For some women, adoption becomes the most meaningful decision they have ever made. At A Loving Option Adoption, you are in control of your plan from start to finish. You choose the family, you decide the level of contact, and you set the terms of the relationship going forward. 

All services for birth parents are completely free and confidential. And depending on your financial situation, if you choose to make an adoption plan, you may be eligible for reasonable and legitimate pregnancy-related expenses.

Three Types of Adoption to Consider

At A Loving Option Adoption, we offer three types of adoption plans:

Open Adoption: You maintain ongoing contact with your child and the adoptive family. This can include phone calls, texts, visits, or communication through a shared email account. Addresses are not shared until a comfortable relationship has been established, and a formal Communication Agreement is put in place before the adoption is finalized.

Semi-Open Adoption: Contact is maintained through a third party, such as your adoption agency. This allows for updates and photos while maintaining a degree of privacy for both families.

Closed Adoption: No identifying information is shared between the birth and adoptive families. Some women find this arrangement gives them the space they need to heal and move forward.

Whatever level of contact feels right, we will help you find a waiting family whose expectations align with yours.

No matter how you got here, you deserve someone in your corner. A Loving Option Adoption has been that for birth mothers across Tennessee, from Knoxville to Nashville and throughout the state, and we would be honored to be that for you, too.
