Jigsaw Adoption Case Study

Adoption United Kingdom: Anna and Edward’s Story

After struggling with infertility, we wanted to take positive steps to complete our family. We decided to move away from the cycle of treatment and disappointment. We spoke to several agencies and local authorities about child adoption. We decided that Jigsaw would be the best fit to help us achieve our goal of adopting two siblings.

Their responsiveness and support provided us with a really positive experience throughout the adoption process. Like many couples who choose adoption United Kingdom services, we found the journey both challenging and rewarding.

Our Experience with Jigsaw Adoption

When we first considered adoption, we researched different agencies. We spoke to several before making our decision. The government guidance on adoption helped us understand what to expect from adoption United Kingdom services.

We specifically wanted to adopt siblings. We believed keeping brothers and sisters together was important. The support we received from Jigsaw made us feel confident in our decision.

The Assessment and Matching Process

The assessment process was thorough but supportive. We completed all the necessary adoption paperwork with help from our social worker. We attended preparation classes that helped us understand the complexities of the adoption process.

Reading other adopter stories helped us during our wait. We found comfort in knowing that support would be available throughout our journey.

“We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend adoption or Jigsaw to others in our situation.”

Bringing Our Daughters Home

About a year to the day after starting stage one, we brought home two wonderful girls. We’ve learned a lot and feel well-prepared. We’re aware that many challenges lie ahead. However, we continue to feel supported and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend adoption or Jigsaw to others in our situation.

Our experience has been positive thanks to the right support. Post-adoption support services give us confidence for the future. For anyone considering adoption, we’d say that finding the right agency makes all the difference.

Ask plenty of questions and trust your instincts about which agency feels right for your family.
