About Us
Hi! We’re Jessica and Kyle. We met in the summer of 2012, on Jess’s birthday to be exact. We were working for the same company in Florida and met through mutual friends. By the winter of 2013, we were moving in together and adopting our first kitten. Six years, one wedding, three pups, another kitten, and a few moves later, we settled in Georgia. Kyle is an avid golfer and CrossFitter who works in revenue analytics, while Jessica works in marketing. She spends her extra time volunteering with local animal shelters and searching for the country’s best ice cream! Together we enjoy traveling, renovating houses, trying new restaurants, and spending time with our family and friends.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a small, family-oriented suburb in Georgia less than 20 minutes from some of Georgia’s best attractions (museums, sporting events, zoos, aquariums, parks, and more), so there’s always plenty to do. Our neighborhood is quiet and a great place for kids to play outside, learn to ride their bikes, and go for long walks. We are big animal lovers and have a soft spot for the ones that need a little extra love. Over the years, we’ve brought in some senior pets and ones with special needs. Our current fur-babies are Harlow (a blind, senior mini-dachshund), Snoopy (another mini-dachshund that had paralysis), and Wulfie and Edgar (two domestic short-haired cats). All four of them have been exposed to children of all ages and are always loving.
Our Extended Family
We’re both the babies of our families. Kyle and his brother are only three years apart and grew up playing hockey, golf, and soccer together. We have a five-year-old niece and an eight-year-old nephew on Kyle’s side, and they are very excited to welcome a new cousin into their lives! Kyle also has 42 first cousins alone—many with their own young children as well—so your child will be part of a large, close-knit family.
With their age difference, Jess’s brother and sister were often like second parents as she was growing up and have always been two of her favorite people. Their presence in her life has always felt meant to be, and she’s consistently thankful to their biological parents for bringing them into her life. While Jess doesn’t have quite the large extended family that Kyle does, she is equally as close with many of her cousins and their children. Jess's extended family grew up taking trips to the beach all together, and they continue that tradition today. We’re looking forward to watching your child grow up with their cousins, just as we did.
What Led Us To Adoption
Jess has always had a personal connection to adoption. When her parents were first married, they were told having children wouldn’t be in the cards for them, so they adopted her older brother and sister. Then, in their early forties, they were surprised to find they were pregnant. (Jess always has liked to make an entrance.) Even though she is 13 and 10 years younger than her siblings, they’ve always been very close. When we decided we were ready to expand our family, we also found out it probably wouldn’t happen naturally. After two years of working with our doctors and multiple rounds of IVF, it became clear we’re being called to write our own adoption story.

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!
