“During my pregnancy, I discovered Lifetime Adoption through a Google search. Libby and Veronica were incredibly kind and supportive. They sent me profiles of potential adoptive parents and regularly checked in on me throughout my pregnancy. I truly appreciated the opportunity to browse through the profiles of such wonderful, stable families.”
“This agency is the most caring loving agency I have ever dealt with they’re my top number one. Highly suggest anyone that needs or is wanting to put their child up for adoption. I know you may not want to but if you have to this would be the place I would go to. They blessed me with an amazing family that took my baby girl in. They have been true to their word and I was very blessed to have them by my side 100%. They’re such genuine people I don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t have them by my side. They made sure my baby girl was taken care of until I found the right family and they kept me updated with everything 100% step by step never left me out of nothing. They’re such warm-hearted ladies and I can’t thank them enough for everything they have done for me. This agency is truly a life-changing place and still to this day, text me and call me to make sure I’m okay and they even send you a little caring package. I couldn’t ask for a better agency to work with. Thank you for everything.”
