are you an adopter looking for a safe space to connect with other adopters?

Hello,

I'm Suzy, mum to two beautiful sisters who grew in my heart not my belly. As an adopters parenting can feel lonely at times and I'm passionate about helping adopters get the support we need to thrive as parents, not just survive.

When we started to think about adopting, I struggled to find blogs, articles and books written by adopters, sharing the realities of the adoption assessment process, and what parenting children who've experienced early life trauma was really life.

So, when I was on adoption leave with our youngest daughter, I created We Made a Wish digital adoption and parenting magazine. It shares adoption experiences and articles from experts with tips and information about some of the issues we face as adopters, trying to get the support we need for our kids.

I've set up Wish Adopters Club to give adopters a safe space to connect and chat about some of the challenges they're facing. Talking and sharing what we're experiencing helps to come up with solutions and know that we're not alone.

The Club includes a monthly virtual catch-up session where we can go into smaller groups and talk through challenges we're facing.

There is also a monthly virtual workshop from an expert, covering a range of parenting topics as well as wellbeing and self-care for us as parents, and our kids.
