Texas Adoption Center is a licensed Texas adoption agency, providing private, infant adoption services.

We are a highly professional agency, and we pride ourselves on that. But we also pride ourselves on our personal touch: we are caring, understanding, sensitive to your needs. Adoption is a beautiful experience, but it can also be scary and stressful at times—and we are there for you, walking you through all of the ups and downs of your adoption journey. Our aim, always, is to provide you with a very personal kind of support that goes way beyond professionalism. It is this personal dimension that really defines who we are. Texas Adoption Center is a program of A World for Children, which, as non-profit, has been providing exceptional services to children and families across Texas since 1997.

Here is a simple way to keep a connection across the miles. Give birth mom one teddy bear and keep its match with baby. As adoptive parents send updates and photos, she can watch her baby grow, one little bear at a time.

Sometimes the smallest gesture carries the biggest love.

If you are considering adoption and wondering what staying connected could look like, we would be glad to talk it through with you. Text (361) 461-3742 or email [email protected].

Many women wonder: Is it too early to call?

It is not. You can reach out at any point in your pregnancy. Before 25 weeks, you can talk with someone, ask every question on your mind, and receive counseling while you figure out what you want.

Matching with an adoptive family can happen once you are at least 25 weeks pregnant. Some pregnancy-related financial support may be available after that point, depending on your situation. Your adoption specialist can explain exactly what applies to you.

Wherever you are in your pregnancy, you can text (361) 461-3742 or email [email protected].

When she talks about her daughter's adoption, she starts with the hospital.

A birth mom who placed her daughter through Texas Adoption Center spent those days with her boyfriend, her daughter's father, and her daughter's adoptive parents. They spent time in each other's rooms and ate meals together. In her words, they became a family in that time.

She chose a semi-open adoption, and she is clear that she did not choose it for herself. She chose it for her daughter, so that if her daughter ever wants to reach out and have a relationship, she can.

She says the agency got her started quickly but let her move at her own pace, that her specialist was open and detailed about every part of the process, and that she had resources during her pregnancy and after her daughter was born. She and her adoption specialist, Jennifer Wulf, still keep in touch. She calls her family.

Her advice to any mom considering adoption is simple: do what you think is right. Only you know what is right for your baby.

If you are pregnant and want to talk it through, text (361) 461-3742 or email [email protected].

Bonding happens in small, ordinary moments. Preparing for those first weeks is one more way to care for your child and for the trust placed in you.

There is no single reason a woman considers adoption. Usually there are several, and they are tangled up with love, timing, and what she knows about her own life right now.

Some women want to give the children they are already raising their full attention. Some are in school, starting over, or working toward stability. Some want their child to have opportunities they cannot provide at this moment. Some want to choose the family themselves instead of leaving the future to chance.

None of these reasons mean a woman loves her baby less. And if you think through your reasons and decide to parent, that decision deserves the same respect.

Want to talk through what you are weighing? Text (361) 461-3742 or email [email protected]. Starting a conversation does not mean making a decision.

When Lauren and Travis Lafayette adopted their daughter through Texas Adoption Center, her birth mother chose her middle name. She picked it out of a hat at the hospital. The name was Jean.

That name stayed with them. So did the stories of the birth mothers they read about during their own adoption. That Christmas, they worked with their adoption specialist to send practical gifts to birth mothers who had placed around the holidays. Groceries. Clothing. Furniture. Things that lightened the load.

That Christmas became The Giving Jean, a ministry that supports birth mothers long after placement, from Thanksgiving meals to Mother's Day flowers to school supplies for the children they are raising.

We talked with Lauren about how it all began. Read the full interview on our blog through the link in our bio, and follow to see their work.

Today is the first day of fall. Leaves change on their own schedule, and so do people.

If you are pregnant and thinking about adoption, you might feel pressure to have an answer by a certain date. Some women reach out early in pregnancy. Some reach out in the third trimester. Some reach out after their baby is already born. Each of those is a real starting point.

What matters is that you have honest information and someone to think it through with, whenever you are ready.

Have a question you have not said out loud yet? Text Texas Adoption Center at (361) 461-3742 or email [email protected].

Team Member Spotlight – Andrea Harrison, BA,
Adoption Specialist in the Houston area at Texas Adoption Center! A note about Andrea from a wonderful birth mother:

"My adoption process went so smoothly! I thank Andrea for that! Being put in a situation where I needed to make such a life changing decision is hard already, but Andrea made it easy. She took her time and explained everything to me.

She let me decide everything and took into consideration everything that was going on. I'm beyond blessed for being able to meet her and I'm thankful for the time she dedicated to me with such short notice. She made everything easier and I will forever be grateful for the support she gave to me and is willing to give to me."
