How does A Child's Waiting ensure that the child is placed in the right home?

A Child's Waiting believes that you, as the birth mother should never have to compromise on what aspects of an adoptive family's values and day-to-day life you finds important. Each adoptive family submits a photo resume which outlines the important aspects of their life and writes a personal letter to you addressing the information you request of them. You are then able to interview potential adoptive families on the phone or in person. A Child's waiting will conduct extensive searches of detailed information to find these potential families and will facilitate contact with them until all parties involved can make a confident final choice.
