In order to have a child placed in your home for adoption, all adopting families must have an approved home study and have taken an adoption education course (or the equivalent). The adopting family can choose from any Golden Cradle program.

                           Domestic   Program

For families interested in infants of all races and backgrounds.  The fee for this program includes birth family expenses such as medical, living expenses, staff and birth family travel, etc.  Please see the detailed fee sheet for full information. The Pooled Expense Program has a flat fee to insure an equitable distribution of birth parent costs among all families.

     In this program adopting families create a profile (letter to a birth mother and photos). This profile is given to birth families who use it to get to know the family they choose for their child. In some situations a match meeting is arranged and facilitated by our staff. This gives everyone an opportunity to meet and talk and to get more comfortable with each other.

                          International Adoption

     Golden Cradle will assist you in the creation of a "dossier", a collection of papers and documents that is required by the country from which you will adopt. Each country has specific requirements for the dossier, and we provide close support and guidance so the other country accepts the dossier. Adherence to international regulations (the Hague Convention) is very important in these adoptions.  Call about outgoing international adoptions - 856-667-2229
