Katie & David
Kate & David placed about 1 year after completing their home study!
“When we decided to become parents through adoption, we had so many questions and no idea where to start. Thank goodness for Amy! She answered all of our questions throughout, gave us systems to get our paperwork organized, consulted on our adoption profile, and helped us select the adoption agencies to work with. She supported us through the process from start to finish. There is no doubt that because of working with Amy, we matched quickly with a birth Mom and baby that match perfectly with us. We don't know how anyone navigates adoption without her! She made the process manageable and achievable. We have unending gratitude for Amy for helping us become parents to our amazing son!”

Sheria
Sheria matched with an expectant mom just 6 months after signing on with Hello Baby!
“I am incredibly grateful to Hello Baby Adoption Consultants, especially Jessica, for their outstanding support throughout my adoption journey as a single mom. Jessica's dedication and expertise were invaluable, particularly during a challenging period right before placement and while waiting for ICPC approval.
From the moment I first contacted Hello Baby, Jessica's warmth and professionalism stood out. She took the time to understand my unique situation as a single mom, providing not just guidance but genuine empathy.
When unexpected issues arose just before the placement, Jessica and Amy's advocacy on my behalf during this period went above and beyond my expectations, showing their dedication to ensuring the best possible outcome for me and my child.
Throughout the nerve-wracking wait for ICPC approval, Jessica remained a pillar of support. Her regular updates and clear communication kept me informed and reassured, demonstrating her commitment to my case.
Hello Baby Adoption Consultants is more than just an agency; they are a lifeline for families navigating the complexities of adoption. Jessica's professionalism, compassion, and tireless efforts have made a profound impact on my journey to becoming a mom.
Thank you, Jessica and Amy, for your exceptional care and support!”

Brittany & Mikal
Brittany & Mikal placed less than 4 months after signing on with Hello Baby.
“I absolutely loved working with Hello Baby! For our first adoption, we had used a different consultant so we debated if we should use one again for our 2nd adoption. I have to say it was well worth it. Our consultant was Katie, and she was so kind. She was very responsive to every message I sent with any questions or just to offer encouragement during our wait. I was so happy with how quick our wait was as well. We went live in January and had our son in our arms in early April. I believe this was largely due to the help with our profile book that Katie offered, and Hello Baby’s large network of agencies they work with. I believe using Hello Baby is well worth their cost even if you have adopted before. I'm so grateful to Katie and the whole team for everything they did for us!”

Britney & Adam
Adam & Britney placed with their son less than 6 months after signing up with Hello Baby.
“Using Hello Baby Consultants was recommended to us by my sister-in-law. We started using them at the beginning of our adoption journey. Kelly Keen was assigned to us and she was incredibly helpful and caring throughout the whole process! She gave us encouragement when we were discouraged and helped me let go of some of things I was holding on to and trying to control.
Hello Baby gives you step by step instructions on what to do and how to do it. They also make recommendations on agencies and sometimes sends cases from other agencies (outside of your agencies) when they get them. This is how we connected with our son. We saw many cases through our agencies as well as the ones Hello Baby received from other agencies. This increased our odds of finding our child quickly. We signed up with Hello Baby Feb 2024. We were home study approved in August 2024 and brought home our adorable son 4 months later! I am so thankful for Hello Baby and their services! If we adopt a second time, we will be reaching out to Hello Baby again!”
Adam & Britney, TX
Anna & David
David & Anna matched with a sibling set just 6 months after signing on with Hello Baby!
“I can’t say enough good things about Hello Baby. We were working with a different agency for 3 years with lots of open promises and feeling painfully stuck on our road to parenthood. Our home study provider eventually told us to reach out to Hello Baby as she had had 6 couples in our same shoes adopt a baby with Hello Baby within 6 months of signing up. We were beyond thrilled to be matched with our 2 kiddos (1 year old and 4 years old) within 4 months. Our adoption just finalized and our amazing kiddos are officially part of our family.
Hello Baby is there to support adoptive families along the way. There was a period of time during the revocation period when all communication with our agency went quiet for several days. Jessica from Hello Baby was there to reassure us that no news was good news at that time and to talk me off the ledge. I so appreciate their expertise in working with adoptive families!”
David & Anna, IN
Jen & Marty
Marty & Jen placed with a baby born about 8 months after their home study was finished.
“We could not be any happier with our decision to hire HelloBaby to assist us along the adoption journey.
As you can imagine, the adoption process can take a long time, involve many steps and work with a wide range of professionals. HelloBaby made the entire process seamless. They educated us on the full process end-to-end. During each key phase, they provide guidance, recommendations and advice.
Our consultant in particular, was very caring, attentive and available when we needed her. I am confident when I say that we would not be where we are today without her.”
Marty & Jen, NC
Jason & Holly
Jason & Holly placed with their daughter about 1 month after completing their home study.
“When we decided to work with an adoption consultant, we honestly didn’t know what to expect. Our hope was that working with a consultant would make the adoption process faster and less complicated. It has been all that and more and we cannot say enough good about Kelly Keen (our consultant), specifically. Of the many adoption professionals we have worked with in this entire process, Kelly has by far been the most helpful and crucial. She has been there every step of the way for us and if we were to adopt again, we wouldn’t even consider doing it without Kelly’s help. Kelly is very knowledgeable, discerning, professional, kind, and responsive. With her guidance we were able to match with our daughter’s amazing birth mama in less than a month after being home study approved. If you are on the fence about working with Hello Baby, I highly recommend you go for it… it’s so worth it.”
Jason & Holly, Oregon
Lori & Gabe
Lori & Gabe were matched and placed within 3 months of adding Hello Baby's services!
“Hello Baby was what we didn't know we needed! Looking back, we wish we would have done it so much sooner. We were on our second adoption journey so we were convinced we knew how to do it and that a consultant wouldn't be much of a benefit. I am happy to admit we were wrong. We signed with Hello Baby in May and our daughter came home in September! Everyone we interacted with was super helpful...but the icing on the cake was our adoption consultant Kelly! She answered every question, connected us to the right people, and was always so compassionate. If you are on the fence about signing with Hello Baby...just do it! We have no regrets as we enjoy our time as a family of four.”
Lori & Gabe, Texas
Kevin & Sarah
Kevin & Sarah placed within 5 months of receiving their home study approval in their home state.
“I don't have the right words for how me and my wife feel about Amy. She is amazing and would recommend any family to use Hello Baby!”

Catie & Chris
Catie & Chris matched in about 4 months!
“We cannot emphasize enough how much we recommend Hello Baby to anyone who is going through the adoption process. They truly made the stressful, emotional, and confusing world of adoption so much easier to navigate. Hello Baby, and specifically Kelly, were our saving grace during the adoption of our son. We cannot thank Kelly enough for her expertise, guidance, and never ending support. She was always there to answer any question we had, calm us down during especially stressful moments, and celebrate with us as we hit each phase of the process. If you are considering using a consulting group to help you through adoption, this is the agency to use...no question.”
Catie & Chris, Massachusetts
Kelly & Jon
Kelly & Jon were supported by Hello Baby during their 2nd domestic infant adoption journey.
“We worked with Kelly at Hello Baby during our second adoption process and we could not be happier with our experience! From start to finish Kelly was available, supportive and saw us through a very difficult situation when we experienced a disrupted match. She had great perspective and helpful suggestions on what would make our profile the best it could be as well as which agencies would best fit our family. When we had a successful placement just days after our failed match, Kelly continued to check in and offer support around our ICPC wait and transition back home. We were so glad to work with Hello Baby this time around and highly recommend their services!”
Kelly & Jon, Maryland
Jennifer
Jennifer matched 8 months after home study approval and placed with her son less than 3 months later.
“Choosing Hello Baby as my adoption consultant was the best decision I made. The amount of support I received is invaluable and far exceeded my expectations. Especially as a single mom going through the process, my consultant, Kelly, really helped guide me every step of the way and made it all far less overwhelming. I could always count on her to be responsive, knowledgeable and honest. Although I was adopting single, I never felt alone having Kelly and the entire Hello Baby group in my corner. Now that I have my son home, I am always reminded how thankful I am that I decided to work with Hello Baby. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering adopting!”
Jennifer, Illinois
Greg & Andrew
Greg & Andrew were on a plane to meet their daughter 4 days after being matched!
“We are so grateful that we worked with Hello Baby to help us in this adoption process! I honestly cannot imagine doing this process without the guidance of Kelly, and the rest of the team. Understandably this journey isn’t the same for everyone, but we matched and adopted our child within months of using them. They made us feel comfortable and aware of every step along the way, answered all our questions in a prompt manner, and were just generally so nice. If you’re considering adoption we HIGHLY recommend starting with Hello Baby.”
Greg & Andrew, California
Katie
Less than 4 months after adding Hello Baby's services, Katie received a call that she was chosen for a baby girl who was already born!
"The level of support and expertise given by Hello Baby Adoption Consultants is unmatched. After waiting for over 2 years with my home study agency, who had a very low number of placements, they highly recommended Hello Baby. Initially I was hesitant to add the additional cost, but let me tell you- it was worth it AND MORE. Within days, I had a multitude of resources and support to guide me through my rollercoaster of emotions during this journey through my consultant, Katie.The sweetest part of it all is that less than 4 months from signing on, I got the call I was waiting for and am now snuggling my beautiful baby girl as I am writing this review. None of this would have been possible without Katie, Amy, and Hello Baby Adoption Consultants. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

Colin & Robin
Colin & Robin were matched about 6 months after their home study was completed and met their baby boy less than 2 weeks later!
“Working with Kelly Keen at Hello Baby has been incredible – we cannot say enough good things!!! We originally contacted Hello Baby because we were overwhelmed and completely lost in the complex world of adoption options. Kelly guided us through the path that was right for us. She is incredibly knowledgeable and provided us with invaluable information and advice that prepared us for each adoption stage. We are now grateful parents of a healthy baby boy!”
Colin & Robin, Texas
Cory & Javier
Cory & Javier met their daughter less than 4 months after completing their home study!
“Wow, where do I even begin? Hello Baby has been an absolute blessing for us during our adoption journey. We were hesitant at first about investing in an adoption consultant, but let me tell you, it was one of the best decisions we could have made. Caitlin, Kelly, and the entire team at Hello Baby are true experts in their field. From the moment we had our first conversation with Caitlin, we knew we were in good hands. She walked us through their four-step process and took the time to answer all of our questions. We never once felt pressured or rushed, which was incredibly important to us.
And then there’s Kelly. We were lucky enough to work with her directly and I can honestly say that she is one of the most amazing people we have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and efficient, but she is also so kind and empathetic. She truly cares about each and every one of her clients and goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of.
Kelly was there for us every step of the way, from the very beginning of our journey all the way through to the matching and placement process. She celebrated our victories with us and provided gentle guidance when we needed it. Her response time was always lightning-fast and she was always available to chat whenever we needed her.
But what really sets Hello Baby apart is the emotional support and guidance they provide. Adoption is such an emotional rollercoaster and having Kelly there to talk us through our fears and concerns was invaluable. She was always there to listen, to offer words of encouragement, and to remind us that we were not alone.
So, to answer the question of whether or not working with Hello Baby is worth the money - absolutely. The knowledge and expertise they bring to the table, their organization and efficiency, their connections, and the emotional support they provide are all worth every penny. We are so incredibly grateful for everything they have done for us and would highly recommend them to anyone considering adoption. Thank you, Hello Baby, from the bottom of our hearts!”
Cory & Javier, Texas
Becky & Andy
Becky & Andy said hello to their baby boy about a week after being matched!
“We had an amazing experience working with Jennifer at Hello Baby. We signed on with Hello Baby as our very first step in our adoption journey and it was 9 months total before we would bring our baby boy home.
Working with Hello Baby helped make an extremely complicated process much easier to understand and take action on. We always knew what we could be working on next to move the process forward, and Jennifer gave us all of the tools, resources and guidance to feel confident in each step along the way. We felt comfortable reaching out any time with any question and Jennifer was always available quickly by text or phone when we needed her. Toward the end of our home study, we were in a training class with several other couples and realized we were much further ahead of all of them because of the great guidance we were getting from Hello Baby. We ended up being the “go to” couple that people were seeking advice from.
When we finally did match and our placement process became more complicated than anticipated, Jennifer and Amy were both available to us to help us understand what might be going on and how we could continue to advocate for ourselves, and they even connected with the agency a couple times on our behalf to ensure they were fully aware of the situation and could give us proper coaching.
We have been so happy working with Hello Baby. They had a big hand in helping make our dreams come true! We would highly encourage any family to work with them for incredible guidance and peace of mind on this journey.”
Becky & Andy, Colorado
Jake & Kait
Jake & Kait met their son less than one month after being matched!
“Absolutely amazing experience with Hello Baby - especially with Marcy! She helped us with everything, top to bottom: Finding a home study agency in our area, reviewing our profile book, explaining confusing parts of the process, and cheering us on before (and during)(and after!) our adoption. I cannot recommend her enough!”
Kait & Jake, Oregon
Melissa & Miles
Melissa & Miles were chosen about 1 month after completing their home study.
“Absolutely wonderful experience, nothing but good things to share! My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Kelly, and she was continuously helpful and present every step of the way. We even were able to meet other adoptive parents in our area to connect with. We have already referred our friends to benefit from their wonderful services!”
Melissa & Miles, Washington
Anthony & Jordan
Anthony & Jordan were matched within 1 month of becoming a waiting family!
“We couldn’t possibly be more thankful for Hello Baby, Amy Twombly and our consultant Kelly Keen. Working with Hello Baby was an absolute dream and having Kelly as our guide to hold our hands as we navigate unknown and emotional territory was exactly what we needed. We had already completed our home study and had been waiting to be matched with a birth mother for almost two years — but once we started working with Hello Baby we were able to make the connections we needed and were matched within ONE MONTH! We are forever grateful to Kelly and Hello Baby for helping to bring our daughter home to us, and would recommend them to anyone looking to build their family through adoption. ❤️”
