Kairo needs an adoptive family

Sweet two-year-old Kairo needs an adoptive family! He is curious about the environment and actively explores the objects surrounding him. Kairo loves toys, especially those with sensory stimulation. He’s a little timid around strangers but feels comfortable with familiar people.

Kairo can stand up by himself and can walk when led by one hand. He’s happy to try new foods, though he does have his favorites. He doesn’t have much verbal speech yet, but he doesn’t let that stop him – if he wants something, he gets it himself! His foster parents are working with him to stimulate his cognitive development. He’s also learning to use a spoon and fork.

Physically healthy, Kairo has been diagnosed with generalized developmental disorder and various developmental delays. This precious boy needs an adoptive family to meet him right where he is and help him reach his potential!

To learn more about Kairo please get in touch with our Bulgaria team and visit his individual profile to see his pictures.

CCAI’s Bulgaria Program

CCAI placed its first Bulgarian child in 2015 and the program has been growing ever since! Like most intercountry adoption programs today, Bulgaria places older children, children with medical needs, and/or sibling groups. The biggest “need” is for families open to children 8 and above and to children with medical conditions. In fact, families open to children with Down syndrome can often be matched in as little as 3-6 months from dossier submission!

CCAI’s parent preparation resources give families the tools they need to successfully welcome a special child into their hearts and home. The Bulgaria program is running strong and CCAI warmly invites families to view just a few of the many children waiting for their forever families.
