Stanton says despite the financial challenges they've been able to put the needs of their babies first:
"All of our international adoptions and some of our local adoptions have bee suspended due to lockdown.
"Although babies are very safe and happy with us, our hearts are currently bleeding for parents everywhere. some of them have been waiting for seven years to have their precious little sausage and now they are still here with us. We continue to love and care for the little ones."
