Our Ethos
SteppingStones’ is child -entric: our priority is to find a home for every child and we facilitate this by matching the child’s profile with prospective parents who have a valid ASA and express an interest in adopting a child.
Our Promise
SteppingStones customises our services to each family we work with as we appreciate that no two adoption journeys are alike. We understand that you will probably be excited yet anxious at the same time and may also have a lot of queries. Since 2019, the experienced SteppingStones Team has been here for prospective parents, providing them with necessary information generating solutions to issues that are encountered along the way. More importantly, we are committed to supporting and guiding you by exploring your needs as well as ascertaining your profile, preferences, mindset and commitment to go through with the adoption journey to determine if you may safely navigate the adoption landscape and achieve your dreams of parenthood.
Our Process and Fees
SteppingStones has the contacts, resources and expertise to facilitate child adoption.
We’re committed to a transparent, ethical process for biological mothers/families, adoptive parents and everyone involved. This includes the extent of our fee disclosure which are comprehensively outlined to ensure that adoptive parents encounter no hidden costs. In Table 1 below, SteppingStones Fees and all other fees and charges are given either as a base rate or in an indicative range which is commensurate with the estimated amount and complexity of professional work to be rendered on a case-by-case basis.
As such, we encourage all prospective adoptive parents to contact us at email: admin@steppingstones.com.sg or mobile: 8878 9804 to schedule an informal, no obligation chat session.
Should a potential match occur, the SteppingStones Team will go through your estimated case-specific fees, process and timeline as well as other relevant terms and conditions so that your decision on whether to proceed will be on a fully informed basis. Only when the Adoption Agreement is signed with us will your case formally proceed and fees become payable.
SteppingStones does not solicit the payment of a deposit as a gesture of interest or commitment. In line with our commitment to be your long-term parenting partner, SteppingStones Fees includes post adoption journeying: conducting workshops and running parent support groups to enhance your parenting expertise and skills.
