dear expectant mother
Words cannot describe how grateful we are for the love you have for your child to consider making an adoption plan. The selflessness you are demonstrating by considering us to raise your most precious gift is truly humbling. We have thought about this act of love so deeply, and there is no way we can ever thank you enough for this opportunity to parent your child.
We can promise you that as a part of our family, your baby will be loved beyond measure. Every milestone, from their first steps to their first days of school, will be noted in love. Your baby will be welcomed into a home where family is truly everything, and our support of them will be lifelong. We cannot wait to teach, guide, and love your baby, and we can promise you that your baby will always know about the mother who loved them enough to let them spend forever with us. We can only hope and pray that you know how thankful we truly are, and forever will be, to you.
About Us
We met five years ago through mutual friends and quickly realized that we had something important in common - we both love working with children. Jamie is a middle school teacher, and Heather is a pediatric physician assistant. Working with children has always come very naturally to us and has truly drawn us together as a couple. After three years of dating, we had our fairytale wedding at Disney World surrounded by family and friends . Now that we are married, we understand even more the value children bring to a family. We like to spend time with our 11-year-old niece, especially during the summer months, so we can take her to Disney World and to all the local theme parks here in Florida. Our time with her is so important to us, and she is ready for a cousin to share these traditions with.
When we are not spending time with family, we love to travel. We enjoy going on family trips and like to spend time at the beach. We cannot wait to expand our family and include a child in the memories we cherish making.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a two-story home with four bedrooms and lots of room for fun. Our neighborhood is in a gated community with lots of young families with children. We are excited to build memories playing outside, riding bikes through the neighborhood, and having barbeques with our neighbors. Our neighborhood has a pool and a splash pad, which we use all year round in Florida. We love to be involved in community activities, especially around the holidays. We have a heart for rescue animals and have one pup and five cats from local rescue organizations. All of our pets, and especially our dog Benji, adore children. Benji knows many of the kids in our neighborhood and loves to say hello to each one with lots of kisses and tail wags.
Our Extended Family
We both come from close and loving families where traditions are valued and family time is important. Heather has an older brother, a twin sister, and a younger sister. While they each have their own busy lives and families and live in several different states, we make sure to travel to see each one at least once or twice a year. Something we both look forward to each year is visiting Heather’s brother in Hawaii; it is our favorite place to go. Heather’s parents live about an hour away and are a great support for us.
Jamie’s family includes his mother, stepdad, and younger sister, and they live only a few minutes away. We see them each week for family dinners and truly value our time together. Family is the single most important thing to us, and both of our families are so excited to welcome a new child into our lives. We know our child will be just as much of a blessing for them as they will be for us.
What Led Us To Adoption
Adoption has been on our hearts since we first started dating. Heather had an amazing experience caring for foster children in college and has seen firsthand the lifelong impact a loving family can have on a child and a child can have on a family. We have both always felt called to be parents and have made it a point to communicate openly about the different paths to parenthood. We tried for several years to have biological children, but when we were not able to get pregnant, we realized that it was time for our dream to adopt to become a reality. We have so much love to give and are just so ready to welcome a child into our home forever.

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!
