A Guardian Angel Adoptions
A Guardian Angel Adoptions is a fully licensed adoption agency established almost two decades ago. As we longed for children and became mothers through adoption we realized the love we have for women experiencing unplanned pregnancies, precious adopted children and adoptive families. Together we have created a team of adoption specialists with years of adoption experience and expertise and the same love for the clients we serve.
We feel privileged to work with expectant mother/birth mothers, precious babies and adoptive families every day and strive to care for them as we would our own families. We are grateful beyond measure to serve and care for you on your adoption journey. The name chosen for our agency explains our belief that there are “angels” all around us and we know we are never alone in this precious work.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Utah families receive monthly foster care payments to help offset the costs of raising a child. This stipend is meant for room and board, clothing, and related expenses.
The amount you receive varies based on a child's age and needs. Children that require more attention and care have slightly higher rates.
Foster youth have their medical and dental needs covered through Medicaid. This insurance should be enough for any doctor's visits, therapy sessions, dental exams, etc. Foster children also qualify for free school lunches.
Utah parents can take advantage of mentorship programs that allow them to learn from more experienced foster families. It's an excellent way to connect with others and build a support network. Plus, you'll have someone else to turn to if you have questions.
Utah Kids Belong has an app that gives foster parents access to special discounts from foster-friendly businesses. It's also an easy way to connect with faith-based communities, which may offer other types of support.

So I had my baby girl June 8th and during my time here my case worker was named jolynn and she was very nice but then again something was just off. Like I felt alone and also felt as if me or the father wasn't really ppl they cared about but more so the baby. When I was in the hospital and the day that I was about to sign my relinquishment papers, me and the father decided to keep her because we couldn't just see her and connect with her then just let her go. And also we ended up having somewhere to raise her. Jolynn made me feel pressured to give her away. Like she kept asking me things like " so what about the future" and "it's okay to give her for adoption" and "it's hard raising a baby. As if we don't know that. and then later that day, another lady named Flossie called me basically saying "how do you know that the people your going to won't turn their backs on you and that you may not be stuck in a situation where social services get involved" I was just like wow, their true colors came out. They just wanted my baby and for me to get those papers signed. It's like they had no faith in us

I've just got to say how amazing they were through the whole process. They are caring and very supportive of the decisions you are about to make. My personal experience went a little like this jolynn was my case manager and she was so caring she took me to my doctors appointments, we went and did things like lunch and coffee they made you feel like f. They pay for all your expenses as she did for me! I had a counselor her name was summer and she is so bright and happy and her energy is contagious which was always good energy she made me feel happy about the decision I made to place my beautiful baby boy up for adoption. As did jolynn I would recommend them to anyone. So if you are about to place your child up for adoption I would recommend them fully they will meet all your needs and wants if you want an open adoption it will be open if you want a closed adoption it'll be closed they respect any decision you are about to make and are with you every step of the way I just wanna say and give a huge thank you to jolynn summer and Jenna you ladies are thee best and I'm so thankful for everything you guys did for my baby boy and I. So like I said before IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO PLACE YOUR CHILD UP FOR ADOPTION CHOOSE A GUARDIAN ANGEL ADOPTION AGENCY THEY ARE THEE BEST AND I LOVE THEM ALWAYS

I’ve chosen adoption three times, and each time I’ve gone through Guardian Angel. I love how easily and efficiently my needs were met. I feel like with anywhere anyone goes, and with every business, there will be someone who frustrates you sometimes, as a couple times there has been for me here, but it wasn’t anything that was quickly resolved or handled. I do believe Guardian Angel has changed quite a bit over the years for the better, and this year seemed to be more loving than the last. Adoption is emotional, and difficult, and I feel like a lot of the negative comments on here are from Birthmoms who, even years later, still aren't sure in the decision THEY MADE THEMSELVES to adopt. I feel like those comments reflect on Guardian Angel negatively, and I feel that it shouldn’t. With Guardian Angel, YOU ARE IN CONTROL. You’re able to choose your family and how much contact you have with your baby afterwards. They make sure you have consistent medical care, and respect your choice and accommodate your choice of male or female doctor (I would suggest the female one personally 😉) if you haven’t already been seeing one of your own. My space and privacy was respected at all times. I love that no matter how long it’s been after adoption, Guardian Angel still emails or calls to check in and make sure you’re still well. I really feel like the love is there along with the gratitude, respect, and understanding of what a Birth Mother is, and does is truly a selfless and beautiful thing.

I have actually chosen adoption twice and both times I went through The Guardian Angel Adoption Agency and I absolutely love them . My first experience with them went so well I went with them the second time I found myself in a 'situation'. I love them I love there adoption agents and I love everything they stand for. They treated me with the up most respect and kindness and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. I could go on and on about them but I would definitely recommend them. I LOVE THE GUARDIAN ANGELS!!!!!
