We are a nationwide adoption agency with a special focus on Kentucky adoptions. We work with a wonderful, caring and competent attorney and social worker right in Kentucky. They understand what you are going through, and how to help you best. They can meet you, wherever you are, to provide professional legal assistance and support for the emotions that adoption often entails. These services are always kept confidential.

Looking for an Open Adoption in Kentucky?

If you are interested in making an open adoption plan in Kentucky, Adoptions With Love can help. We specialize in open adoptions and can guide you through all the legal and emotional issues involved with that decision. Our successful program of letters and pictures is always available to you, if you wish to see how your child is doing over the years.

If you choose a closed adoption, we can help with that, too. Most adoptions today are open or semi-open, but there are women who choose to stay anonymous and keep the adoption closed after birth. We also advise expectant/birth mothers that, if they choose a closed adoption, letters and pictures will still be available if they desire them someday.

Some women prefer a semi-open adoption plan, in which they and the adoptive family keep in contact while maintaining anonymity for all parties. For example, you may wish to only have mediated phone calls or email updates through the adoption agency.

There is no right or wrong option when it comes to making an adoption plan. Each expectant/birth mother must choose the plan with which she is most comfortable. Your adoption specialist at Adoptions With Love can help you decide on the best level of communication, and work with the adoptive family to reach an agreement amicably. You can learn more about making an adoption plan in Kentucky here.

All of the prospective adoptive families that have been approved by our organization – after a thorough and in-depth screening and home study process – agree to at least a semi-open adoption. This ensures you will have the opportunity to stay in contact with your child’s adoptive family throughout her childhood, if you wish. The terms of the contact may evolve, as needed, over the years, but the starting agreement is written and signed as a contract. This gives many expectant/birth mothers some peace of mind, knowing they may still have some contact with the family raising their baby.

Adoption Laws in Kentucky

Similar to other states, birth parents in Kentucky must wait at least 72 hours after the baby is born before signing consent of adoption. This gives birth mothers time to think about their decision and ensure it is in the best interest of their baby.

Adoption laws vary by state, so it is important to have a reliable adoption agency who is well-versed in Kentucky adoptions. Legal services through Adoptions With Love include face-to-face meetings with a specialized adoption attorney – offered at no cost to you. Our fantastic and competent lawyer knows the laws regarding adoption in Kentucky, and she will take care of all the legal matters associated with the adoption. Your rights as a birth mother will be protected.

The counseling and legal services offered through Adoptions With Love are accessible at any point during your adoption journey. Our team will work tirelessly to help you through this process, ensuring that all important conversations and events will be taken care of in your hometown.
