We DO NOT include:

  • Home Study preparation.
  • Cost of Dossier preparation in your home country.
  • Your air travel from and to home.
  • Your travel between Kiev and Warsaw (if applicable).
  • Your accommodation in Warsaw (if applicable).
  • Your embassy fees.
  • Medical examination fees for the child(ren).
  • Post-placement reports.
  • Your meals.
  • Personal needs: international telephone calls, Internet, taxi on personal needs, etc.


Our fees include advice and assistance on preparation of the above, but not the actual expense involved.  Your financial responsibilities lie with your own country requirements and your travel to and from Ukraine.  Your fees to us ensure that once you are in Ukraine, you are our responsibility and we take care of you completely, except for meals.  Everyone's taste is different, and we would find it very difficult indeed to please everyone.   We stock the parent's apartment with basic foodstuffs, take you grocery shopping, and arrange catering when we are in orphanage cities.    We will fund one trip to an orphanage city outside Kiev and ask that you fund any additional trips.  We feel comfortable making this small stipulation because additional travel is seldom necessary.

 Besides, we provide a basic package: a nice flat, a taxi for business in the city and train for inter-city trips. If you prefer flying instead of train or to go by car to the region or back – you will have to pay for it but we will reimburse the difference.
