dear expectant mother
We can’t imagine what you are facing right now, but we want you to know we would provide your baby a loving home with a rich life of opportunities. We feel like parents already but without a child.
We are eager to decorate trees and bake goodies. Since Jenna is a teacher, she is looking forward to reading and singing songs with a little one. A little one in our home will get a ton of love and structure and would receive the support needed to enjoy academic success. David is eager to share his love of movies and art and to read his favorite books (including The Stinky Cheese Man). We want to give a little one lots of love and the tools needed to grow and develop into a healthy and whole human.
Our home is full of love and laughter. Mistakes are embraced, and personal growth is paramount. We have a comfortable home, stable employment, education, and an extensive amount of love we are excited to share. A baby in our home would grow up with happy memories that involve laughter, games, traveling, and love.
About Us
David is a social worker and gets great satisfaction knowing he is making a difference. In our community, David ensures elderly and delicate people get the help they need. While he loves his work, he looks forward to leaving his job with the county to be a stay-at-home dad if we are blessed to have a child. Jenna is an elementary teacher and has been a teacher for 13 years. We enjoy community theater, board games, and traveling. One day, we want to take a little one on a cross-country road trip and share the beauty of our nation. We take frequent road trips and just finished working on the musical, Chicago. David hosts a podcast about movies in his spare time, and Jenna quilts, writes, crochets, and reads. Jenna has also presented at several state-wide education conferences.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a quiet neighborhood, where families live up and down the road. We have a big backyard, where we set up a pool in the summer. We have two cats, both Siamese, and two dogs (one black Lab and one corgi/Australian shepherd.) Our home has four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. Our home is conveniently situated near the school Jenna works at. We live near the park that serves as our city’s center, and where our small area has festivals and street dance parties.
Our Extended Family
Jenna’s father and stepmother live in a nearby town, as does her aunt and uncle. We meet monthly for a family breakfast. While we are all excited about adoption, Jenna’s father is especially excited and keeps talking about being a grandpa for the first time.
David’s family lives a distance from us, and we visit them every year for Thanksgiving. Although they are far away, we speak frequently. During the summer, we visit their property along a river, where we boat, barbeque, and share good times. Both families are big on laughter and conversation.
Jenna has been a part of the community theater family since 2008. David joined in 2010, and that is how we met. We host a monthly game night and have a rich circle of close friends.
What Led Us To Adoption
Jenna was adopted by her stepfather at the age of eight. Her life was so wonderful she always knew adoption would be a part of her plan when growing her family. After years of trying to have a child naturally with no luck, we decided to make adoption our only plan. We want to share our wonderful life and home with a little one, and we are eager to complete our little family. We deeply believe in creating memories, and we have several routines and traditions that celebrate our blessings.

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!
