View Families Open to Adopting Older Children

If you are considering adoption for your child, it’s likely because you want to give your young one a better life and a brighter future. While this can be a difficult decision, you can take comfort in knowing that adoption today does not simply mean “giving your child up.” Instead, you have a choice when selecting the adoptive family for your child and customizing the adoption process.

Lifetime Adoption is a licensed adoption agency and has families excited and ready to welcome a child up to seven years old into their home through adoption. The adoptive father and mother have thorough background checks that include federal (FBI), state, and local criminal records and child abuse reports. Also, a social worker will interview the hopeful parents and inspect their home to make sure it’s a safe place for a child.

Search for Families

Hopeful adoptive families looking to adopt an older child create online profiles with information, photos, and videos to help mothers like you get to know them. In these profiles, prospective adoptive parents also share their location and neighborhood, gender and race preferences, lifestyles, desires, and goals when adopting a child, and more. Taking the time to read through these profiles can help you find the adoptive father and mother that can realize the hopes you have for your young one’s future.

You can use our “Search for Families” tool and enter your own search criteria or browse the adoptive families below who are ready and excited to adopt a child. Looking at their profiles and even emailing them doesn’t commit you to moving forward with the adoption process.

If you have any questions or want to speak with a prospective adoptive parent, please feel free to call or text Lifetime Adoption at 1-800-923-6784. We’re always available, so you can call or text us 24/7.
