Re: Child custody
She can transfer custody to you through a court action, but the father will need to be named as a party to such a case. If he does not consent, then it may not be easy to get this done, though it may be possible.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
