Dear Birthmom

However, you have our promise and guarantee that not only will your baby know about you throughout their life, but will also be greatly loved by many people and will be more than taken care of. We will also send you pictures and updates for as long as you like. This baby will be loved, educated, read to, and cuddled to no end!
About Us
It must have been fate, or even destiny, that led us both to our final destination to find love. EHarmony was that final destination. Our pages were instantly matched. After 9 months of dating, I got the best proposal. It was on a stormy night during a scary movie. I am 15 years and counting a Preschool Teacher and my husband is an IT guy. Some of my favorite things to do in my spare time is crashing on the couch with a book from my favorite author Janet Evanovich and working out. My husband loves sports so he is usually watching his favorite teams the Blackhawks and Cubs. We love going on long walks, going to the movies and we also love dancing.
Our Home & Pets
We purchased our adorable Cape Cod home in December of 2015 and couldn’t be happier with the spacious home. Joining us in this adorable home are our two precious fur babies. One is going be 12 and her name is Millie aka Mimers, and then we have our 6-year-old Misteva aka Isty. Mimi is my brave little girl with the gentlest soul ever. Isty, is a champion snuggler and follower.
Our Extended Family
Both of our families were overly excited when we told them we going the adoption route. My mom, aunt and brother-in-law were all adopted. My husband also has a cousin that was also adopted. We have 2 beautiful nieces. I have an older sister and my husband has an older sister and a younger brother.
What Led Us To Adoption
Like most couples, when we decided to have children we tried the natural way first. When we were unsuccessful, we sought help and tried via the IVF/egg donor route. After a few routine tests, it was discovered that I couldn’t physically carry a baby to term. While there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t feel heartbroken and have an endless longing to fill my house with a baby to love, I am very excited and feel very hopeful to grow our family through adoption. We have so much love and cannot wait to be parents.

Choose a Family for
Your Baby With Confidence
As you browse our list of hopeful adoptive parents, you can feel confident in knowing that all of the adoptive families working with Angel Adoption are prepared to offer your baby a safe, stable, and loving environment along with a wealth of opportunities for a happy and fulfilling life.
Each adoptive parent has been thoroughly evaluated through a home study course conducted by a licensed agency. A completed home study means the family is emotionally, physically, and financially ready to adopt a baby.
The home study process includes assessments of each parent’s character, marital stability, financial situation, lifestyle, and medical history. The agency also runs background checks to verify there is no record of criminal activity or child abuse. In addition, a social worker will inspect the family’s home to ensure it is a safe environment for a child.
Furthermore, Angel Adoption requires each family to be educated on adopting and parenting. After a baby has been placed with the adoptive family, a social worker will continue to monitor and supervise the family. We go to great lengths to make sure all the families you have to choose from are going to be excellent parents for your baby!
