If you are looking for adoptive parents for your child, how important is a stay at home parent?
What things are you looking for in adoptive parents?
We are now waiting to adopt and I worry that the things we think are important and that we emphasized in our "Dear Enpectant Parents" letter might be different than what the potential birthparents consider important.
My husband is at home and will stay at home which is a bit unusual--any thoughts on that??

Like you, my husband is the one staying home with our new baby girl. I had a few weeks with her on my own before he took over and I will tell you, I miss it! But he is doing great with her, so I am happy.
As for what a bmom thinks, our bmom seemed to be under the assumption we would be placing the baby in daycare and both continue to work, so I don't think it is a major issue in their selecting aparents. She likes hearing how great my husband is with our little one and I think she is glad to know that he is home with her, but I don't think it would have been any different had we told her we were going to have the baby in daycare. She liked us from the start and did not know our plans for child care until after selecting us (we did not mention this in our letter). But you never know what someone will see in yor profile to make them connect with you and ultimately chose you.
