Are you pregnant and considering an adoption plan? Hoping to adopt in Toledo? You’ve found the complete guide to the loving and selfless choice of adoption.  

  • Adoption is always an option for you regardless of your circumstances.   

  • The right adoption agency will safely and smoothly guide you through the adoption process ethically and with the utmost professionalism.  

  • Adoption gives you the chance to find the perfect home for your baby.  

  • Experiencing the adoption journey together helps create a life-long bond. 

Adoption is a decision that changes the lives of everyone involved. A child finds the perfect home, a birth mother makes a decision based on love for her child and a hopeful adoptive family sees their dreams of bringing a child home come true. 

American Adoptions knows the impact of adoption better than most, as many of our staff have their own personal stories. Take it from Scott Mars, our founder, and an adoptee himself:   

“My mom and dad were a couple who weren’t able to become a mom and dad without adoption. Of all people in this world, my mom and dad deserve to be parents. And without adoption, they would not have been able to share their love, share their life, and give someone the life that I had.    

“Because of adoption, my life was filled with love and opportunity.”  You can watch Scott’s video to see his entire adoption story. 

When you make the decision to start your Toledo adoption journey, we want to be there for you every step of the way, guiding you through the adoption process to ensure that your experience is everything you deserve. Our agency specializes in private domestic adoption, but more than that, we specialize in creating an adoption plan that is about you and your child.

We think it’s important that you hear from our past clients, because you’re going down the very path they did. The emotions, the joy and the life-changing experience of adoption are something you’ll never forget. The bond you develop with this decision and the shared journey between everyone involved is inspiring. 

“Every picture, it brightens my day. There are two things I check every day, the blog and my Facebook,” Randi said. “When I see a random picture that she puts on there, it just makes me feel like she’s not forgetting about me, and keeping up with what she said she was going to do. I love still being able to have that connection with Juniper. I get all jittery thinking about it because it’s going to blow my mind when she’s five and she starts talking, and I can actually talk to her and have a conversation with her.” 

Randi and her adoptive family have a strong relationship which started during the initial adoption process and because of that bond, she continues to see her daughter happy, healthy and reaching important milestones. More importantly, Randi can be a part of it.
