We glad that despite hire some one from New York we hired Bal Jagat- Childrens World Inc. for adoption of my son who is now almost 9 years old. From the day we file for an application, Hemlata who is owner of this agency and her daughter Mausami help us getting through every phase of the process without any delay and answer all questions. They even follow up with Indian Central government to expedite the adoption process. Their application fees was reasonable compare to other agencies. They even help us finding a responsive agency in New York to complete our home study and post adoption follow up. It is lifetime bonding with Bal-Jagat Childerns world Inc. as without them not sure how we have had completed adoption in short time frame and completed our family . I highly recommended other prospective adoptive parents to contact them to get guidance and service.
If you are looking for an international adoption agency, Bal Jagat-Childrens World Inc. is an agency that you must look into. They have been in the business for a very long time and know exactly what they are doing. They will guide you through the whole process, preparing you for what lies ahead and giving you the support that you need. They are efficient, they are reliable, and they are caring. They give all families the special attention that they deserve.
I first met Hemlata and Mausami at TiECon in 2012. I had no idea five years later I would come to them for an intercountry (international) adoption. Last week I had my Orientation with both of them, and I walked out feeling very well-informed about the process of adopting a child from India, Pakistan, or Morocco. They spent almost four hours with me! For the value their Orientation fee is extremely reasonable (an attorneys fee would be more than double!).Bal Jagat provides several intercountry adoptions (India, China, African countries, Kyrgyzstan, others). They are Hague accredited, which means if you want to adopt from a Hague-only country, they can still help you.If there is a country you have in mind that they do not directly have a program for, Hemlata is very well connected with other agencies and she can make a new agency partnership for you. For example, I was interested in adopting from India as a possibility and during Orientation, given my preferences to adopt an infant, Hemlata suggested Morocco and answered all of my questions about timeline, costs, and preparation in extensive detail.Bal Jagats Social Workers (who help you with your home study) have been working with them for over 20 years! Hemlata has been doing this since 1983 and Mausami since the early 2000s. Together, their team is impeccable, which is exactly what I need. Mausami is also a licensed notary public, which is very convenient due to all the notary signatures required during the adoption process.If you are interested in adopting a child of any age from any country, call them first. These two ladies are highly ethical, well respected, and very well known in the adoption community. They are helping people from their hearts and will always guide you in the right direction.
I have worked for Bal Jagat - Children s World, Inc. since August 2012 as a social worker. It is run by a mother/daughter team of social workers and has been in business since 1983. I highly recommend this agency. They are extremely ethical, professional and caring. They truly understand all the possible complications involved in an international adoption and will go the extra mile to assist and guide their clients. Also, the training and attention they give to their social workers is wonderful. I recommend this agency with the highest confidence.
Some would say that my recommendation of Hemlata and Bal Jagat is a touch biased, however based on the work she does with this organization most would indulge me.I do know Hemlata on a professional basis, because I am one of her many success stories. My parents went through her organization almost 30 years ago to adopt a child to call their own. I know from reviewing the adoption files, the level of meticulousness and professionalism that Hemlata conducts herself and this Bal Jagat organization. My parents have told me time and time again of how her help allowed them to get me.On a personal note, I have had an opportunity to know Hemlata for the last 14 years or so. She is not related to me by blood, by marriage, or by any legal bond. However she is family to me, and to every other child that she has brought to this country. I have had a chance to attend the annual picnic that Bal Jagat sponsors as my schedule has allowed me, and I can say unequivocally that her passion for her work is evident in her interaction with us. She knows each of us by name, by what we do, and by our familes.It is with these things in mind that I do not hesitate to recommend Hemlata if you are looking to adopt children. Her care and passion for what she does, transcend anything I have ever seen.
The leadership at Bal Jagat is compassionate and serve as dedicated advocates for children around the world. Their commitment to redressing the plight of orphan children stems from social work experiences inside orphanages overseas. Bal Jagat has been matching caring parents with parentless children of all ages for over three decades, and now many of the adopted children are adults who, in turn, now wish to adopt and help other international orphans. The Bal Jagat extended family numbers in the thousands, and every family continues to be a source of joy for Mausami and her mother, Hemlata, founder of Bal Jagat. They are extraordinary people who handle each adoption with meticulous care and genuine warmth.
I met Hemlata and Mausami through my Kiwanis Club of Long Beach. Kiwanis is one of Bal Jagats sponsors because we support their mission and their very strong commitment to it. It was clear to me, after visiting their office, that placing children from all over the world into loving families is much more than a job for them. And, their long record of successful adoptions shows that they are very good at it.
I have come to know Hemlata and Mausami through Bal-Jagats location within our Business Improvement District. They are warm and loving people and it is overwhelming to see the many, many photos of all the children that they have helped families adopt. Id encourage anyone considering adoption to schedule a visit and get to know them.
AMAZING, these ladies will give you the best services. This was my first experience with international adoption and I had so many questions. They always responded within the hour and I wasnt even a client yet. They were very thorough and helped me with recommendations. They responded quickly and very thoroughly every time. I only started the process and they were such good help without me even signing anything. Mausami was willing to meet with me an hour early before they opened so we can work with my husbands schedule. You can tell when someone loves their job and are willing to do anything to help and that is the case in Bal Jagat.Our adoption never begun because of the childs relatives changing their mind but If we do another adoption I wouldnt even hesitate on working with them again. I loved their dynamic and how they were always on top of things, Hemlata and Mausami are fantastic and Im sure these two ladies are going straight to heaven with all the service they have provided to so many families. Hope this review helps another person looking for help in their adoption process, I wish I wouldve found them since the beginning. They are fantastic!
Hemlata and Mausami do what they love and they love what they do. They are competent, intelligent experts in the field of international adoption and they work hard for children and families to find each other. You can rest assured that if you work with these wonderful women, you are in good hands. They are going to do everything that is needed for these complex and intricate adoptions and they are going to do it correctly and with integrity and a strong sense of ethics. I would not hesitate to recommend Bal Jagat, Childrens World Inc.
Hemlata and Mausami are two of the most knowledgeable and caring adoption specialists I know of. Their technical skill in navigating the rather complex and ever changing regulatory environoment surrounding the international adoptions process is second to none. Their professional competence is only exceeded by their warm and caring approach as they work with you to bring a new young life to your family. So if you are contemplating an international adoption, I would highly recommend Hemlata and Mausami of Bal Jagat.
If you are considering international adoption, I would highly recommend Bal Jagat. Hemlata and Mausami are extremely knowledgable and have experience finalizing adoptions from multiple countries. International adoption can be a daunting process. Bal Jagat can guide families to make the process more manageable. If you have questions or wondering if international adoption is a fit for your family, you should definitely contact Bal Jagat for a consult.
I visited our great friends Mausami Momaya and Hemlata Momaya, a mother and daughter social work team who owns and manages an international adoptions agency called Bal Jagat children’s world Inc headquartered in Long Beach.They are experts on international adoptions and have been in operation for over 35 years with well over 5000 adoptions to their credit.Nearly every wall of their office is covered with pictures of successful adoptions from all over the world. They do direct service from several countries but also work with other agencies who have contacts in countries they don’t have direct contacts with.They are fully Hague accredited, the industry standard, and are a 501(c)3 nonprofit. Also what makes this adoption agency truly unique is the fact that they are non-religious. So they can assist couples who may have been denied from a religious based agency.
If you are looking for an outstanding, trustworthy, and professional international adoption agency in Southern California, you will find it in Bal Jagat- Childrens World. Hemlata and Mausami take great care of their clients and walk them through the process with the utmost care, knowledge, and reliability.
I was introduced to Mayo by my husband the other day. He was her Mailman and would tell me about the work with orphaned children worldwide they do to find them loving homes. As I entered there office I was blown away to see the hundreds of children’s pictures displayed on there walls. Many of whom they have helped to find them loving homes. Mayo and her mother Hemlata are two wonderful ladies who have devoted there lives in helping to find homes for children from all walks of life and and worldwide discriminating with no one. They are wonderful ladies who I met and respect what they do every day !!!
We are the luckiest people in the whole world. My husband originally found Bal Jagat and we were fortunate to work with Hemlata and her daughter.We went through the whole home study course with our wonderful social worker Luisa and after the process was complete, with Bal Jagat and Luisa guiding us along the way, we became a forever family with the most amazing, wonderful, beautiful, handsome, incredible, fabulous, son Nicholas who was born in Romania.We were able to get him when he was 10 1/2 months old in Bucharest and now hes almost 13 years old! We give thanks to Bal Jagats Childrens World everyday, for blessing us with our precious son. He is the light of our lives. We are so lucky. We recommend Bal Jagat with 10 thumbs up for the excellent service they provide and for their love and support. Thank you Bal Jagat!Edit Remove
We have been working with Hemlata and Mausami of Bal Jagat for a little over a year now. We came to them with an interest in working with a country that does very few international adoptions but we felt passionate and strongly about trying.From our very first meeting, we were so struck at how informed, thorough and heartfelt they are about what they do. They truly understand the business that they are in and take the responsibility of placing adoptive children very seriously and with incredible integrity. Its how you would hope anyone in this field would be.They have gone above and beyond in being professional, helpful and supportive throughout this process and have gone beyond their responsibility to help us. They are always available and if necessary, return calls and emails promptly; you are never left dangling or in the dark. That was a big concern of ours - how available would the person(s) be that you are working with.The process of adoption can be so overwhelming and they do such a great job of ensuring that you understand every step of the way and do an amazing job holding your hand!We also absolutely LOVED the social worker they assigned to us. She was stellar at her job and such a truly kind and caring person.The whole team is wonderful!
When I realized adoption was right for me, Bal Jagat helped me achieve my dream. Their compassionate, empathetic, professional, and proficient staff expertly guided me through the labyrinthine process. Their active engagement in each step made success possible. Thank you, Bal Jagat!
Hemlata and Mausami are two wonderful ladies with massive hearts working to serve disadvantaged children and find them loving families in the US. The ladies are kind, patient, knowledgable about the process and great to work with. We have been very pleased with our experience and would recommend them to anyone considering international adoption!
Mausami Momaya and her mother run a very professional operation and have placed many children throughout the world in loving homes. They do not miss a detail when it comes to meeting the needs of both the prospective parents and the children they place. Bal Jagat is an excellent agency run by conscientious people.
Although Im still in the process, and their part of the adoption process is complete, I can honestly say they have gone above and beyond to help us with anything we need. We are going through an international adoption, Even though they have no real responsibility with us anymore they continue to keep tabs on us. I cant say enough about the labor of love they provide. They genuinely care, and you can tell they do this because they feel passionate about their work. I truly admire their commitment to helping families successfully adopt a child. They are very honest, and upfront about the whole process. Specifically, they stayed after hours, arranged meetings with us at odd hours to accommodate hour schedule. They helped find ways for us to save money, considering how expensive the whole process is. They made phone calls and helped us arrange the appointments we needed. Guided us through the process of smoothly. I am eternally grateful for all their help. 7 months later, they are still emailing us with reminders to ensure our home study doesnt expire. Its details like this, Im sure, would escape me and had they not reminded us we would forget and could cause a major delay in the adoption process. I love their attention to detail. Mausami and Hemlata Thank you so very much for all your help. And Ana, our social worker, thank you so much for arranging your schedule to accommodate our hectic schedule. We really appreciate it.
I cant say enough about this agency as they really care about the adopting families and the children being adopted. They will do whats in the best interest for you and the children even if it means referring you to another agency. I recommend everyone interest in adopting please give Mausami a call!!!
Amazing Agency that treats everyone as family and goes the extra mile to produce the BEST service available !! Their smiles and attention to detail is not to be outdone. Cant imagine a Adoption Agency that could compare !! They also extend themselves by reaching out to the LGBTQ community to assure them that they too are assured equal access to adopt! Amazing
Looking for information I reached out and this lady took the time to explain me the entire process. Next steps and how I should plan out the process even though based on our status we werent eligible and nor use the services of the agency. I rate them a 5 for the way she went beyond looking for a prospect and provided information out of sheer goodwill.

2020-12-20Really wonderful agency! Hemlata and Mausami are incredibly warm and helpful people and guided my wife and I through the daunting process of international adoption. With their help and partnership with another agency (Children’s Home Society & Lutheran Social Services - Minnesota) specializing in Korean adoptions, we now have a little boy who is 21 months as of writing this!In addition, our social worker from Bal Jagat who did our home study and will do our post custody reports, Katy, is the best!We were so discouraged with the adoption process before we found Bal Jagat, but now we finally have our son and we are just thrilled!

2022-01-07The team at Bal-Jagat Children’s World have all been incredible. Hemlata, Mausami and Maggie have made the start of the adoption process so attainable by holding our hand each step of the way. They are extremely knowledgeable with impeccable attention to detail. While the process of adoption can feel daunting at times, especially with the stacks of paperwork required, having all of them on our team has given us the confidence and encouragement to successfully begin our adoption journey. We’ve been able to rest easy knowing that their years of experience, coupled with their genuine sincerity and empathetic approach, will help us in our pursuit of growing our family. We would highly recommend them to anyone considering adoption.

2021-05-04Bal Jagat is outstanding! Hemlata and Mausami Momaya are tireless in all the marvelous work they do for your adoption journey. My Mom adopted my sister from China through them (and loved this agency so very much!), and now I am going through my India adoption with them and couldnt be more grateful for all they do! The love and care they put in to each persons adoption process is truly unparalleled! Whenever I have a question about anything during the process I hear back right away, and they are so patient with all my many questions. They put in such tremendous effort and thoroughness in every detail along the way. I am so very happy to be going through this process in such capable and trustworthy hands.

2017-11-15I can’t say enough positive things about Bal Jagat - Children’s World. Hemlata and Mausami have a world of knowledge regarding international adoptions. I used Bal Jagat when adopting my two daughters from China. Both times they made it such a positive experience and they are so reliable and friendly. Now 17 years later my youngest daughter is volunteering at their office once a week. She is amazed at all they do and all the pictures of the children they have placed with families are on the walls. If you are looking into adoption this is the only agency to go with.They have 34 years of experience and they are truly in this business for the children!

2017-06-30The Bal Jagat Team is one of the best adoption service agencies out there. As a family run business and an extremely long history of working with children, Hemlata and Mausami do their best to meet all their clients needs and personalize their experience. The pair are the two nicest people you will meet and work extremely hard for a good cause. I would recommend anyone who is contemplating or having thoughts of adoption to visit this agency! You wont regret it!

2018-07-12Bal Jagat Childrens World is one of the best adoption agencies you could find. They have been operating for decades with a true love for children and families. The women that run this service are true angels and they have helped so many. They have even gotten an award from Congress for their caring and tremendous efforts over the years. If you are interested in adopting, there is no better choice than Bal Jagat. They are helpful, motivating and inspiring. My family is so thankful for everything you have done for so many. Thank you Hemlata and Mausami of Bal Jagat!

2018-05-18My experience with Bal Jagat Childrens World as a single adoptive mother was a very positive one, and Id highly recommend this agency to prospective adoptive parents. I first learned about Bal Jagat from family friends who had adopted from China and after meeting with Mausami and Hemlata, I knew I was in good hands. This is a small, family-run agency who are Hague-accredited and very experienced in international adoption. They truly care about the families they serve and want the best for both the parents and the children they bring together. They have been established and well respected in the community for many years and have won many awards for their work. They are always very warm and supportive on a personal level in addition to offering highly professional services and expert guidance at every step. They are up front about the challenges of adopting from different countries, and the process to get approved. The fees are clearly explained and any questions are answered promptly, in detail and with patience. They release an informative newsletter regularly and can connect prospective parents with each other - if so desired - for additional support and friendship. In my case, great friendships developed! I never felt I was asking too many questions of Bal Jagat, and felt supported throughout the entire process. Whether its via phone, email or a meeting at their lovely office, one is always treated with great warmth and respect, and provided with invaluable information. The social worker assigned to complete my home study was also wonderful. She was very professional, thorough with all the requirements and interviews, yet kind and encouraging so I felt we were all working as a team to prepare for a new addition to the family. The translator who was engaged for my China adoption was also very committed and clearly experienced in translating the paperwork as required. The journey towards adoption can be a long one, and there can be unforeseen challenges but Bal Jagat were with me all the way. I am now looking forward to bringing home my baby girl and taking her to Bal Jagat to introduce her to the wonderful people who made it all possible. I urge anyone considering international adoption to arrange an orientation interview for themselves to meet Hemlata and Mausami and to learn more. Thank you Bal Jagat Childrens World for your outstanding service!

2016-03-29Bal Jagat Childrens Agency is an agency with a heart. Their mission is to find a happy home to orphan children from other poor countries. I went to visit their office one time.and I was amazed to see thousands of children photos all over the walls that already found a happy homes. Hemlata and Mausami know all the kids stories by heart when they showed me the photos. I would say Bal Jagat is the place to go if you plan to adopt a child because they are not only an agency with a heart but very dedicated and efficient of what they do.

2017-03-16There is an obvious love for what they do here. It is family-centered: from the agency itself to the pictures of decades of happy adopted children and families. Bal Jagat makes sure that the children are the focus of the adoption journey and that they are well-matched to their forever families. They have been recognized locally and nationally in providing such caring service to both child and parent. They are a compassionate and trustworthy team that families can rely on.

2013-04-10My husband & I found Bal Jagat back in 1990 from a local newspaper that did an article on Romanian adoptions, and Bal Jagat was one of the places listed as helping with Romanian adoptions. This was before we had an Internet access! We are both adopted and decided we wanted to adopt too. We brought our son (13 months), and daughter (19 months) home 6 months later. We had wonderful support from Hemlata, and people she worked with in Romania. We look upon the time we spent in Romania for our adoption with wonderful memories (and we hope to go back there one day)! Our children are both 23 yrs old now (6 months apart), doing well, and we cannot imagine our lifes without them! We always enjoyed the Bal Jagat parties as the children were growing up too! We highly recommend Bal Jagat~Childrens World, Inc!
