Lifetime Adoption is a nationwide adoption service. It was founded in 1986 as an Adoption Support and Referral Group by Founder Mardie Caldwell after her struggle with seven pregnancy losses and her own adoptions and working with women in crisis. The mission was and still is to help families and birthmothers come together.

Completing approximately twelve to fifteen adoptions monthly, Lifetime’s specialty is assisting and supporting birthparents in their search to find qualified loving adoptive families. With the assistance of the Internet, Lifetime is able to provide adoption services and bring together prospective adoptive families and birthparents from all over the U.S. and military families overseas!

The founder and CEO, Mardie Caldwell, is a certified open adoption practitioner and is bonded and fully insured as an adoption facilitator. She operates Lifetime Adoption as a registered facilitator with the State of California under the provisions of the Registry of California Adoption Facilitators. Lifetime is also a member in good standing with the Better Business Bureau of Sacramento, a member of the Grass Valley/Nevada County Chamber of Commerce and the California Association of Employers.

In 2013, Mardie Caldwell opened Lifetime Adoption, Inc. in Florida, a licensed child-placing agency. We are excited to offer more services to birth mothers and families nationwide.

On average, our adoption staff receives 300 phone calls daily and are available for emergencies 24-hours a day. Over the years, we have become known for our caring and genuine concern for the birthmothers' well-being, before and after adoption. All clients are carefully screened for their suitability in our adoption programs.

Caring for Birthparents
Lifetime provides birthparents with compassionate personalized attention and support regardless of the decision to adopt or parent. Birthparents receive quality help and outside compassionate non-judgmental counseling with goal setting and confidential decision-making. Medical, legal, public aid and housing referrals are available. Food closet and maternity clothing store is available to women as well through www.BirthMotherBlessings.com. Educational programs and scholarships for online and offline programs available by applying at www.LifetimeFoundation.org

Birthparents, through Lifetime’s Open Adoption Program, have the opportunity to choose the baby's adoptive parents and meet the adoptive family. Lifetime encourages birthmothers to take a friend, mother, or the birthfather along with them when meeting a prospective family. With the option to exchange on going letters and photos, birthparents can be assured of their children’s well-being in upbringing and children have the opportunity to know their genealogy, medical history and biological family. All of Lifetime’s services to birthparents are free.


Aiding Adoptive Families
Lifetime maintains contracts with families who have a broad range of religions, races, ages and preferences for infants, older children and sibling groups. Lifetime provides adoptive families with a wealth of information pertaining to the adoption process, alleviating concern and guesswork. In addition to printed materials and online counseling, Lifetime offers free monthly informational meetings.

On behalf of adoptive families, Lifetime handles the initial screening of all birthparents on phone and, if possible, in person and through written questionnaire. Only qualified birthparents and adoptive families with matching profiles are linked for further conversations, avoiding false expectations and disappointment. A majority of Lifetime families are matched within a few weeks to less than a year.

In addition to facilitating adoptive family and birthparent matches, Lifetime arranges for the transfer of proof of pregnancy, medical releases and records, and written confirmation of future contact between the adoptive family and birthparents. Lifetime makes available to adoptive families referrals to attorneys and other adoption professionals nationwide, in order to help them complete their adoption. To culminate the adoption, Lifetime prepares a plan for the baby to leave the hospital with the adoptive family.

Lifetime continues with follow-up care after birth and post-placement with both the adoptive family and birthparents.

We're a nationwide adoption center and have helped thousands of adoptive families and birth parents to come together through safe, successful adoptions. Our caring, confidential services are available to birth parents 24 hours a day.
