Since 1986, adoption expert Mardie Caldwell, C.O.A.P., has been dedicated to bringing couples and birth parents together in order to fulfill their dreams.

Many years ago I was also searching for a child to adopt. We didn’t know where or how to get started. Through research, determination, and a prayer, our dream of a family became a reality. I started with a plan, a notebook, assistance from a caring adoption consultant, and a lot of hard work; this was my family I was building. We had a few heartaches along the way, but the pain of not having children was worse!

Within weeks we had three different birth mothers choose us. We were overwhelmed and delighted. Many unsettling events would take place before our adoption would be finalized, many months later. Little did I know that God was training and aligning me for the adoption work I now do today. It is my goal to share with our families the methods and plans that succeed and do not succeed. I believe adoption should be affordable and can be a wonderful “pregnancy” for the adoptive couple.

I have also been on both sides of infertility with the loss of seven pregnancies and then conceiving by new technology, giving birth to a healthy daughter. I have experienced firsthand the emotional pain of infertility and believe my experience allows me to serve your needs better.

It is my hope that for you, the prospective parents, your desire for a child will be fulfilled soon. It is my hope for you, our beloved birth mothers placing your babies and older children for adoption that the immeasurable amount of love for the child that you are carrying will be returned to you over your lifetime again and again.

God bless you both in your search for the best for this precious child.

While facilitating the adoption of children by caring, loving couples has been a great achievement, Mardie’s accomplishment was facilitated by her awareness of the importance of love and nurturing in our lives.
