Adopting a child while based in Singapore

[Dog Lover]

We are just starting the process of adopting a second child, not sure yet from where ... we have one biological child ... quite nervous about choosing a good agency as we want a very reputable one, would LOVE any recommendations.

Any advice would also be extremely welcome.  I am Australian, my husband is British, and we plan on returning to Australia to live in a few years.

Thank you!

Aliya a longtime board member hear is one of the resident gurus on adoption.  She adopted locally and has all the information.
As you are registered you should be able to PM her.

Thanks ... does nobody else have any recommendations or advice to add please?

[yes]

search the archives for this topic.  there is loads of good information there.

Saw an article a while ago in Expat Living regarding two expat women who had set up an adoption advisory agency here.  Sorry cannot remember anymore about the article but you could try contacting the magazine.

That was Aliya, but she's leaving Singapore shortly and the other has already left.

DogLover: When I get a chance I'll PM you, but I'm sure there's tons of stuff in the archives but sometimes you can't find it!

Always worth double checking with High Comms and MCYS as things change.

I'll PM you re agents.
