Adoption is an exciting and rewarding process, but it can also be challenging. We’re here to support you through those challenges and help you along each step of this life-changing journey.
Becoming a parent through adoption is easier and quicker than you might think. The process is there to make sure the adoption is a success for both you and the child.
If you’re living in a stepfamily, find out more about the process of adopting your partner’s children and the additional factors you need to consider.
If you have links with, or knowledge of another country’s culture, history and language, then you may be interested in adopting a child from that country. Find out more about this process.
Young children, older children, brothers and sisters, children with additional needs. Find out more about the types of children waiting for their lives to change.
With most children in Wales, when they are first removed from their birth family either just before or at the start of care proceedings, they are either placed with family members or in a short term foster placement with approved foster carers.
If you’re interested in adoption, need additional support, or just want to ask us some questions, we’d love to hear from you.
You can also speak to an adoption worker for an informal chat, and we can then send you an information pack.
