Adopting Through Florida’s Public Adoption System
Adopt a Newborn, Infant, or Preschooler Through Our Private Adoption Program
Our private adoption program offers the opportunity to adopt a child of any race or gender, with most placements being newborns. The waiting period varies, typically ranging from 3 months to 3 years, depending on circumstances.

Bundle of Hope’s private newborn adoption services are separate from the Florida public child-welfare adoption system described below.
Across Florida, children from diverse backgrounds, circumstances, and races are waiting for a forever family and a permanent place to call home. Each child has a story, a heart full of hope, and a deep desire to belong.
Through Florida’s public child-welfare and community-based-care system, families may be able to adopt with little to no agency cost. Whether you’re considering adoption for the first time or have been thinking about it for a while, there are resources to help guide you through the process.
To learn more about Florida’s adoption opportunities, search for waiting children, and understand the steps involved, visit www.adoptFlorida.org. There, you’ll find:

Every child deserves a loving, stable home. If adoption has been on your heart, now is the time to take the first step. At Bundle of Hope, we believe that Unplanned doesn’t mean unLOVED. While some children are placed into adoption at birth, many others still wait—children who long for a place to call home.
If you’re ready to make a difference, start your journey today at www.adoptFlorida.org and become the family a child has been waiting for.
