Little Flower Adoptions
Little Flower Adoptions is a Texas-licensed child placing agency: Adoption Home Study Services, Adoptive Parent Preparation/Education, Post-Placement Services, Identified Adoptions, and Birth Parent Services.Little Flower Adoptions is owned by Kris Miller, M.Ed, LPC. She has been the Executive Director and Licensed Child-Placing Administrator since the inception of the agency.
Little Flower Adoptions has been a licensed adoption agency since 2001. We have assisted hundreds of birth mothers with making an adoption plan for their babies and hundreds of adoptive parents with building their families through adoption.
We work a little differently than most adoption agencies. While traditional adoption agencies specialize in matching birth parents with prospective adoptive parents, Little Flower Adoptions primarily works pre-matched cases. So, if you are a prospective adoptive parent working with a Texas birth mother, we are your agency. We will ensure your case meets all licensing standards and legal requirements. We will also ensure that you, whether you are a birth mother or adopting parent, are supported and guided through this process and that the case is in the best interest of the baby.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Adults who are new to the fostering process sometimes feel overwhelmed and wonder if they will have support on their journey. Your child-placing agency is the first resource. Social services caseworkers provide aspiring foster parents with various types of support and connections. These include free educational training programs, helplines, and support groups.
It is important that foster parents build their individual support network, too. Connecting with other foster families with more experience is an excellent place to begin. Texas groups offer foster parent meetups; you can search online for the closest one.
The Texas Foster Family Association provides state training, a regional directory of support services, a summer training conference, and more. Membership benefits include getting access to foster care professionals and learning more about ways to become better caregivers. Children of TFFA members can also get assistance through the Scholarship Fund.
Austin Angels is another support organization that strives to assist foster parents and Texas foster children. They offer care packages and gifts for foster children and their caregivers, mentorship options, and education, among other resources. Foster children and teens can learn valuable skills that help prepare them for independent living, as well.

Little Flower Adoptions has always been outstanding to me and my husband! They are incredibly caring and responsive. Anything we have ever needed they took care of. They were a huge help in the process of adopting our son. I can’t speak highly enough about Kris Miller and Kerry Parish. I don’t understand how some of the other reviews could say anything different about them. Highly recommend! They will take the stress out of adoption for you.

Little flowers changed my life. I chose adoption being pregnant with identical twin girls and the whole process was wonderful. They all made sure they checked in with me throughout the whole pregnancy. It was an amazing experience!!!!!!!!

Our experience with Little Flower Adoptions was amazing. The adoption process can be overwhelming, but from when we first met with Audrey at the hospital and spoke with Kris every question was answered. We cannot recommend this agency enough! Once we were chosen by our birth mom, Kris worked tirelessly as we had to hop on a plane the next day to meet our birth mom and new baby. Kris helped guide us through the ICPC and kept us sane through the whole process. We are so happy that our agency hooked us up with Little Flower Adoptions, and we cannot thank them enough!

This was our first time adopting and Little Flower was so patient with us along the way. As you can imagine, the process of adoption and the hoops you have to jump through can be quite stressful. Little Flower did a great job guiding us through and would promptly reply to the many questions we had. Now we have a beautiful, wonderful son and we are so grateful to Little Flower for their help with this journey.
