Understanding Adoption & Children

 

How Adoption Affects Children

The first few months and years of a baby's life can have a profound impact on the baby's ability to develop deep feelings of trust, pleasure and security.
Called attachment, this special bond between a baby and caregivers is established after the infant routinely has his or her needs met by a loving, reliable, and nurturing caregiver.

Early attachments also have a pronounced influence on the baby's overall brain development. Through these first attachments, the baby learns:

  • I am loveable and have a joyous impact on the world.
  • I am competent at getting these people around me to meet my needs, and I'm important enough that they want to.
  • I can trust people to be there for me.
  • The world is a safe, nurturing, predictable place to be.
