Our Tennessee Home Study Process

Choose us as your licensed Tennessee home study provider. We support both domestic and international adoptions. Contact us and we’ll answer your questions and guide you through the process.

Fill out a simple application and schedule a phone call or video chat with us. We’ll explain everything and get to know your family.

Collect basic paperwork such as birth certificates, financial info, health reports, background checks, references, and your autobiography (or a joint biography if you’re a couple). We give you a clear checklist and help you stay organized.

We meet with everyone in your household for friendly interviews. We also visit your home to make sure it is safe and ready for a child. Your house does not need to be perfect — just safe and clean.

We write your home study report and submit it for approval. Once approved, you are officially ready to adopt. The home study is usually valid for one year.

After a child is placed with you, we complete post-placement visits (usually once every 3 months) until the adoption is finalized in court. We check on the child and support your family.
