dear expectant mother
Dear Expectant Mother,
We know this is not an easy choice, and despite our excitement for the opportunity to love this baby, we respect how difficult this must be for you. We are honored and humbled by your consideration and bravery. This is a journey we can travel together, and at the end, we promise your baby will be loved unconditionally in a happy home with a warm family.
Our three-year-old daughter is so excited to be a big sister, and she has been talking about all of the toys she wants to play with, with her new best friend. While we are blessed to have a supportive immediate family, our closest relationships include our friends as well. Love is not limited to blood ties, and this is especially true for your child. We cannot wait to introduce our son or daughter to the rest of our family.
Please know how grateful we are that you are considering taking this journey with us. Together we can seek the courage and wisdom to set a strong foundation for the baby’s future. Through the bends in the road, we will be there to cheer you along. We thank you for your commitment to this child and your strength in taking the first step.
Love,
Jeff and Jeff
About Us
We are high school sweethearts who have been together for 17 years. Our two families became one when we got married nine years ago. We are both in education and love to help others learn. We love to travel and go to new places or just go to the beach. We also enjoy just staying home and having family nights playing games or watching a good movie! We both work in suburban schools. Jeff V. is an English teacher and administrator, and his goal in life is to help his students learn not just the curriculum but how to positively impact the world. Jeff P. is a school guidance counselor, and he is someone who loves guiding students from all walks of life on their future path. We adopted our daughter three years ago, and she has been the center of our world since she came into our lives.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a suburb about 30 minutes away from a major city. We have a newly built two-story home, and we are within walking distance to our local elementary school, middle school, and recreational parks with water slides. All of the kids in our little cul-de-sac play together, and we have a tight-knit community! We will be able to walk our child to school every day until they go to high school. We are very close to our local library and rec center, and our community is excellent. We have two dogs, Rory and Tonksy, and they are so loving and great with kids.
Our Extended Family
Both of us come from large families. Jeff V. is the youngest of five kids, and many of those siblings have kids now of their own. His parents are very excited to be grandparents for the eleventh time. Jeff P. is the middle child of three children, and his older sister has two kids, with one on the way. We all do a family vacation together every summer in Michigan.
All of us live near one another, and we see each other often. With the children all being around the same age, they have so much fun sharing toys, walking to the park, and spending time with their cousins. Our families are very close, and we can’t wait to introduce our extended family to our new child. We also have a lot of close friends, and in many ways, they are like extended family as well.
Our Adoption Story
We are intelligent, compassionate, and loving people, and we want to share that love with our kids. We are the kind of people who will be at our child’s athletic events or plays and watching their concerts or dance recitals. Our first adoption was such a positive experience, and we have developed such a good partnership with our daughter’s birthmother. We cannot wait to build those connections for our second child. We have been so blessed in our own lives, and we want to share these blessings with our children.

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!
