dear expectant mother
We cannot quite put into words how grateful we are that you are making such an incredibly brave and selfless decision. We have both always wanted children of our own, but due to cervical and ovarian cancer, that is not an option for our family. Adoption has always been in our dreams, and it means the world to us that you might consider our family to raise your precious baby in a happy, loving, and silly home.
We are a couple that loves life and enjoys the simple things, from a s’more by the campfire to soaking up the sun at the beach. We crack jokes, play games, travel, and are always creating new memories. This is something we would love to be able to offer to a child—the chance to make lifelong memories, whether it be picking apples at the orchard, catching lightning bugs in the backyard on warm summer nights, or having the time of their life at Disney World!
We promise to provide every opportunity possible so your child will grow and thrive. They will be so loved by not only us, but also by our friends and family—all of whom cannot wait for us to start this amazing and exciting journey. We cannot imagine what you are going through, but please know that you are not alone, and you have our utmost respect.
About Us
We are Jenn and Eddie, and we love traveling, exploring nature, and going on new adventures. In July of 2018, we shared the adventure of a lifetime and got married in the Bahamas while surrounded by family and friends! Jenn really enjoys reading and crafting, and she has a passion for animals and learning. She is a nanny of many years, a student, and a travel agent that specializes in Disney Vacations! When she is done with school, Jenn hopes to be a wildlife biologist. Eddie enjoys working with his hands and doing projects for around the house. He also enjoys being outdoors whenever possible. Eddie has a passion for helping others and loves his career as a firefighter. In our spare time, you can catch us at the beach searching for beach glass and pebbles, working on the latest projects around the house, or spending time with friends and family.
Our Home & Pets
Our home is a four-bedroom, tri-level style house that sits on over an acre of land and backs up to an open corn field. We have a fenced area that our dogs are able to run and play in, as well as a large garden and a wide-open field leading back to a line of fruit and pine trees. Our neighborhood is filled with children of all ages, and while the neighborhood is set out in the country, we are still within ten minutes of shopping and parks. We are animal lovers and jokingly say we have a “mini farm”: pets include our two dogs, a tabby cat, a Russian tortoise, and chickens!
Our Extended Family
Family is incredibly important to both of us, and nine is the lucky number in our family, since we’re both one of nine kids! Eddie is the second oldest in his family and Jennifer is the oldest. Aunts, uncles, and cousins are also plentiful on both sides! We are both very close to both of our parents, and they couldn’t have been happier when we shared the news of our adoption journey. Tears were definitely shed, as they all know how much adoption means to us.
Due to the size of our families, holidays and birthdays are a blast! We have a few traditions within our families that include opening new pajamas every Christmas prior to opening gifts, big family dinners and cook outs, and even vacations spent together! We cannot wait to share our traditions of tree decorating, cookie baking, and more with a precious child as they grow up surrounded by friends and family that love them.
What Led Us To Adoption
We both come from large families and have always wanted to have a family of our own. However, due to medical reasons, Jennifer is unable to have biological children. We knew from the very start of our relationship we would have a different story than most, and we have embraced it. Together, we have pursued foster care, because we know that every child needs a safe and loving home. We love that we can offer that to children in need, and we are ready for the next step: adoption, to raise a child as unconditionally ours.

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!
