Benefits of Choosing Adoption for Your Baby
Adoption is a loving and selfless gift you can give both your baby and their adoptive family. Your decision to place your baby for adoption with a Wisconsin adoption agency will be a long-awaited miracle for a hopeful family.
A Loving Decision
here are many reasons women choose adoption, and no reason is better than another. Overall, Wisconsin mothers decide to place their baby for adoption because they care about themselves and, more importantly, they care about their baby. An expectant mother may choose to place her baby with an adoption agency in Wisconsin if:
- She is not ready to be a parent
- She feels she is too young
- She is not in a financial position to provide for a baby
- She fears a baby could interfere with finishing school or furthering her career
- She does not want to be a single parent
Planning for the Future
If you decide you are not ready to be a parent, you can choose an adoptive family for your baby. Adoption can provide your baby:
- Love
- Safe, stable home life
- Emotionally ready parents
- Loving grandparents and relatives
- Financial security
- Quality education
- Medical, dental, and eye care
- Opportunities for a happy, fulfilling life

Types of Adoption
As part of your adoption plan, you will choose the type of adoption that is best for you. There are three different types: open adoption, semi-open adoption, and closed adoption.
The type of adoption is based on the level of communication you have with the family and your baby before and after birth. You can choose the adoptive family, communicate with them before the birth, meet with them before the birth, and meet your baby with every type of adoption. This is 100% your choice, and you can decide whatever you are comfortable with. Carefully consider all the differences before making a decision.
Open Adoption
Open adoption is the most common form of adoption in the United States. In an open adoption, identifying information is shared, including names, phone numbers, and email addresses. There are varying degrees of openness after the adoption is finalized, including the exchange of emails, letters, pictures, phone calls, and in-person visits.
Semi-Open Adoption
Semi-open adoption is like an open adoption, but involves only the exchange of photos, emails, and phone calls. There is not usually any direct communication between the children and birthparents.
Closed Adoption
In a closed adoption, no identifying information is shared between birthparents and adoptive families. It is completely anonymous and there is no contact after the adoption is finalized.
Choosing a Family to Adopt Your Baby
A fulfilling part of the adoption process is choosing the adoptive family for your baby. Our families hoping to adopt have been pre-screened, are licensed to adopt a baby in the United States, and are ready to provide a safe, stable, and loving home for your baby.
To decide which adoptive family is the best fit, consider these questions:
- Are you open to a single parent, or do you prefer a two-parent household?
- Are you open to a gay, lesbian, and/or transgender couple?
- Do you prefer a family in a specific location?
- What kind of family values and views on parenting are you looking for in a family?
- Is the family's religion or spiritual beliefs important to you?
- Do you prefer a family that already has children or plans to have/adopt more?
- Is it important to you that the family have a large extended family they are close with?
- What hobbies and interests do you want the family to have?
- Does it matter to you whether one or both parents work outside the home?
