Parenting

“Andrea was amazing with me throughout my entire pregnancy & adoption process. As a birth mother, I needed the loving support of a friend. She gave that to me in spades, plus so much more! Andrea helped me to find the perfect parents for my baby boy. She prayed for & with me to find peace & joy in my decision. Seven years later (wow, it’s been over 7 years), she is an incredible woman & still someone I consider a true friend. I have tried to send other women in need to her, & I, myself, would go to Andrea again in a heartbeat should I find myself in a situation that adoption was needed &/or desired! ❤ Thank you Andrea, for helping me to find my son a family, for helping me give William the life he so deserves!”

“Our adoption experience was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t have done it without Andrea and Joy at Texas Christian Adoptions! The process of adoption can be overwhelming, and there is a lot of helpful and non-helpful information out there for prospective couples. Texas Christian Adoptions stood out to us, because they are both pro-birth family AND pro-adoptive family. Andrea and Joy helped us navigate the process of Semi-open adoption, and developing a lasting relationship with our daughter’s birth mom. There was so much love and support for both parties throughout the entire process! We can’t thank our baby’s birth mom and the wonderful staff at TCA enough, for giving us the precious gift of life.”

“Andrea has been such a blessing to our family! She was our case worker through both my son’s and daughters adoption! She is a great resource to the birthmothers and adoptive families alike! Andrea will give you the special attention and counseling that all parties need during this emotional roller coaster of an experience!”

“My wife and I had signed up with an out-of-state agency but we’re relationship-oriented people who wanted to be treated like individuals, not just a number,” Aaron said.“That particular agency was all about money. They didn’t provide any facts and preyed upon our emotions.” Luckily, they were referred to Andrea by a friend who had a successful adoption through her. “We had an immediate connection with Andrea and we loved her spiritual beliefs,” Amy said. “Andrea’s calming presence and professional demeanor impressed us. She listened to us and was very honest. She was also kind and caring. She opened her heart to us. We shared tears of joy as well as sadness, like a family. Andrea is also current in all the various facets of the adoption world. She is truly gifted in her talents.” Today, Amy and Aaron celebrate the blessing of their adoption. “Once you start the process, stay the course knowing that your goal is attainable. How it comes to fruition is up to God,” Amy added. “You should be united in your decision and then seek out Andrea. It’s not always black and white. She helps fill in the grey areas and the unknown.”

“From the first time we met to the very end of our adoption, Andrea was always professional. One of the main reasons we went with this agency was because of Andrea.  She has a quality that makes you feel at home, comfortable with no question too small. She is genuine. She went above and beyond to make sure that we felt at ease, informed, and walked us through the adoption process. Our adoption happened very quickly and would have been overwhelming had it not been for Andrea. We will always be grateful to her for everything she did for our adoption.”

“When Michael and I began the adoption process, we talked to a number of different agencies over the course of several months, but for a variety of  reasons they just did not feel right. After further research, we came their website, and upon meeting Andrea, we knew this was “our” agency. As we waited for our son, they were so gracious and encouraging, and most importantly, they helped us keep faith that we would adopt a baby. We are forever grateful for guiding us along the way and for the joy our sweet baby boy has brought to our lives! God has truly blessed our little family.”
