You should meet with an experienced family law attorney in the county where you live. It sounds like a private placement adoption could help.

You would not be able to get "custody," as you don't have standing. You could apply for guardianship through the probate court. If she agrees to it, it will be much easier and simpler to obtain. Is the father in the picture or has there been a legal father declared through either the signing of an Affidavit of Parentage or a DNA test? That will make a difference. Once you have guardianship you can eventually file for relative adoption of the child.
My firm would gladly help you with this or speak to you about it in greater detail. There is never any charge for the initial consultation.
