Meet Seriah! She needs an adoptive family. Could you or someone you know be the right fit for this kind and creative 7-year-old?

Seriah is a sweet and affectionate girl who loves to play dress-up and read stories. Dolls and teddy bears are her favorite toys. She enjoys singing, dancing, painting and making crafts. She likes playing with other children and responds well to affirmation from caregivers.

In school, Seriah is in first grade and benefits from extra support as she learns. She is willing to learn new things, and her language skills are on target. She needs guidance with everyday skills, such as staying on task and making decisions. Seriah is currently receiving therapy to support her development and emotional well‑being. She is learning about adoption and has expressed that she wants to be part of a family.

An ideal family for her will be nurturing, affectionate and kind. Seriah should be the youngest child in the home, and her future family should have experience working with children. She will benefit from a good routine and stable environment. An ideal family should have access to special education support and developmental therapy services to help her thrive.

If you think you or someone you know could be the right family for Seriah, please email our waiting child team at waitingchild@holtinternational.org! We cannot share photos of Seriah publicly due to country restrictions on privacy and adoption. However, the waiting child team has more photos and videos available to share with prospective families interested in adoption.
