Seeking Advice for Nicaraguan Adoption

July 14, 2014

My husband and I are researching Nicaragua for our adoption. We have reached out to MLJ and are also looking into Hope International. Any advice from those who have completed the process would be greatly appreciated -- as well as a PM with your experience if you have used either agency. Also, we are wondering if it is safe for us to bring our two young sons for the extended stay.

Hey. I used an attorney, not an agency. I've lived in Nicaragua for 3.5 years, and yes it is safe to bring your sons. You will just want to be sure to have a safe house/condo to stay while you are in the country. Many adopting families stay at Condo Allyson while they are here.
