Your Canadian Domestic Adoption Profile Book
To really believe that my Canadian domestic adoption profile book services can help you get matched with your child sooner, I need to be involved in every part of your adoption profile book. From my own domestic adoption experience, a thoughtfully crafted adoption profile book made a huge difference, and I want to ensure that every detail of yours tells your story beautifully and effectively.
​
What does this mean? I know you've been through it. The adoption process is grueling and invasive, and to be honest, it's not fun; in fact the unknown can be down right scary.
So yes, I'm asking you to do one more process, with me. I can promise you it will be more fun than anything you've experienced thus far in your adoption journey (hello financial forms + home studies + medical reports.).
This is the part where we get to tell your unique story. To get excited about color schemes and the creative process.
I truly believe that there are a lot of waiting adoptive parents that have (and are) stuck waiting longer than they need to, because their adoptive profile book doesn't accurately reflect them, isn't eye catching, and isn't in line with what birth families want to see.
who we work with.
I've created this process with two types of waiting adoptive families in mind.
Waiting Adoptive Families
You've been on the list, your profile is being shown, but you're not being matched. You feel your adoption profile book could be the reason.
Newly Approved Waiting Families
You're starting to think about your adoptive profile book, and are feeling overwhelmed; either by the process or the thought of it.
