A More Complete Approach to Adoption.
At MoveMNT, we arm families with a strong foundation for connecting with, supporting, and raising healthy adoptees. Our comprehensive approach ensures a faster, more affordable, and strategically designed adoption process.
The MoveMNT Experience
Assess Your Situation
Your adoption journey begins with a close look at where you are—assessing your readiness from practical, emotional, and logistical perspectives. We help you decide if MoveMNT is right for you.
Grow Your Knowledge
We equip you with a thorough understanding of domestic adoption, from legal requirements to navigating open adoption and relationship-building with birth families.
Present & Connect
This is the exciting part. We help you build your adoption profile and send it out across your Village. We’ll also guide you to identify adoption agencies and connect with an expectant mother.
Grow Your Family
Realize your dream of adopting and bring home your precious little one. As your baby grows, your Village is here to continue offering support through various milestones.
Join & Grow Your Village
We help you build a “village” of family, friends, and adoption resources. Think of this as your personalized toolkit. You’ll also complete your home study and MoveMNT Curriculum.
Your Safe Harbor
Once your adoption is complete, we become your Safe Harbor, a steady source of guidance and support as you settle into life with your child.
Our Core Values
At MoveMNT Adoption Consulting, we believe in the power of community and the importance of a whole-person approach to adoption. Every aspect of who you are and your experience matters in this process. Our core values guide everything we do:
