We have been honored to work with Open Door on 2 adoptions. They are diligent in making sure the families receive not only the services they need but also the follow up support and encouragement the process demands. We live in a small community and have multiple families that have been blessed through open door. Over the 7 years of our journey we have not only used the adoption services initially during placement but they have provided support for multiple follow up visits and facilitated meeting places and support during. The journey is long and the emotional toll endless, but the backing and encouragement we received was essential.

This agency is unethical!!! They will do anything to try and take a baby from their biological family to make money on an adoption. A birth father has as much right to his child as a birth mother. There is absolutely no reason it took 3 months to place a baby you stole from a family back with his biological father. I am SO thankful this baby boy is FINALLY reunited with his father. This never should have happened. I am a huge supporter of adoption but not making ethical decisions is wrong. Do better Open Door!

My wife and I recently worked with Olga and Open Door Adoption Agency to adopt three siblings from Ukraine. We had a wonderful experience, and were guided through the process from start to finish with the highest level of professionalism. Olga is highly knowledgeable about the Ukrainian adoption process, and will connect you with the best in-country facilitator team once you reach that step of the journey. This is not always the case, so please consider An Open Door if you are thinking about adopting from Ukraine. Thank you all for your incredible customer service and attention to detail which helped us allowed us to meet and fall in love with our three beautiful children.

Last year around Christmas time i had a situation come up family wise where i had to leave my family’s home and it was either have my kids sent to DFCS or put them up for adoption. I chose adoption and i just so happened to come across this agency and my family found this agency also. I called and got information about putting my twins up for adoption and they were so compassionate and understanding of my situation and sent someone to my family’s home to discuss my options. Ms. Cherrea Williams is a complete Angel in disguise!!! We talked for hours on end and laughed alot. I was so happy to find out it was possible to keep my son and daughter together and let them be adopted together! The process was a bit long but all worth it in the end and the families they let you pick from are all great families but this one particular family really stuck out to me and i just didn’t even want to look at the other families life books it’s just like i had some type of connection with the family i chose!!! Fast forward to this year we have had multiple video chats and contact about my babies thru the agency and even thru the family themselves!!! Not putting their names out there due to a respect thing but i must say the family i chose for my kids are also complete angels in disguise also and treat me like I’m their own blood family!!! I completely love how this agency cares about you and your kid/kids. I would definitely recommend An Open Door to anyone that is contemplating on giving up their beautiful baby or babies up for adoption.

Open door adoption agency removed medical history from my sibling's adoption records and placed a violent child in our home. They lied to my parents about the violence and mental health history of my sister. The agency offered rebirthing and exorcisms instead of admitting to their lies. After she tried to stab my mother and commit other violent acts, the agency said it was a "language barrier". These liars only care about money. Don't trust them completely.

I used Open Door Adoption Agency in 2019 to place my first born with a family for adoption. It was the best decision I ever made. Amber Childs, my consultant, went above and beyond to make sure I was supported, cared for, and loved from the very beginning. She made sure I was heard and that my needs were met. I would highly recommend this agency and especially Amber to anyone going through this emotional and scary time of an unplanned pregnancy. Things Amber made sure to take care of for me: -I was sure of my decision late into my second trimester and when I called, Amber answered and scheduled a meeting with me right away (I think that week). -Never for a second, did I feel judged or criticized. It made me feel like I could be totally honest with everything. This continued the entire time -Upon our first meeting, Amber was warm, understanding, and kind. She was never pushy and even though I told her I was sure of my decision, she repeatedly told me that I could change my mind at any time. I truly got the feeling (and was told) that the agency cares more about the best for me and the baby than anything -Amber was extremely accommodating and funny. Very easy to talk to. I felt comfortable sharing intimate details with her and she never flinched or made a face. -She asked me if I needed anything and was given help with maternity clothes right away -Amber went to doctors appointments with me and even drove hours to take me to one out of town. She even jumpstarted my car once! It was amazing, she was wearing high heels! -Amber was available via text or phone call at anytime. This was truly incredible for me. I am bipolar and pregnancy hormones are an entirely new thing I was dealing with. I would call her and freak out or cry about things that had nothing to do with the baby or adoption process. She always made me feel heard and she always empathized with me! She never made me feel like I was overreacting when in hindsight, I probably was! This was one of the most valuable things to me during the whole process. When I felt I had no one, I always had her. -Amber is rooted in Christ and would give me words of encouragement and scripture to me at anytime. She was never pushy or elitist about it, just honest and real -When picking the family, Amber gave no opinion of her own. She gave me many choices and told me I could have even more choices if I didn't like the ones I saw. She was extremely impartial and just let me look and talk. She also reminded me that I could change my mind at any given time -She made it possible for me to meet the family I chose before the birth. We ate lunch and sat and talked, cried, and laughed for over 5 hours. This was huge, because now I know I LOVE these people, in person, not just on paper. Amber was there with us the whole time even though she had been up all night with another birthmom during a birth! -This was a big deal to me: Amber is so good with TMI (too much information). I have shared crazy, ugly details about the pregnancy with her (and even post partum) and she never even bats an eye! My mom gags every time! Amber just empathizes and finds a way to relate. Pregnancy can have some crazy details so this was a huge help to me! -Amber coordinated everything at the hospital to go better than I could have ever imagined. She was there for me, but she also respected my privacy too. I know she did things behind the scenes that I don't even know about -It's been over a month since I have delivered the baby and have placed her with the family I chose. I was preparing to be kind of forgotten about because I wasn't pregnant any more. But this couldn't be farther from the truth. Amber checks in on me, gives me updates, and has even drove from out of town to see me in person. Not only am I receiving some help with bills during my recovery time, but I am receiving the same amount if not more emotional support and care than when I was pregnant. Amber has made me feel very empowered and like my life has purpose.
