dear expectant mother
We would like to begin by expressing our admiration for the strength it takes to consider adoption for your baby. It is a courageous and selfless decision, and we would be honored to be considered as a family for your child.
We were able to realize our dream of becoming parents with the adoption of our daughter, Olivia, in 2016. We share an open adoption with Olivia’s birth mom through pictures, social media, and phone conversations. The openness of this relationship truly has been the best experience for all. Olivia has brought great joy into our lives, and we look forward to adding to that joy with the addition of another child to our family.
We can’t wait to share this love of family, the joy of playing and enjoying sports, reading books together, and playing games. We are excited to share these values with our children, as well as the importance of a good education, learning to appreciate the simple things in life and treating others with kindness and respect. Please be assured that your child will be loved by us and our families unconditionally. We will provide your child every opportunity in our power to grow up in a loving home, where they can realize their dreams.
About Us
We are extremely lucky to have found each other eight years ago, and one of the things that brought us together was our desire to have children and a family. We both come from hard working and very supportive families, who encourage us to be the best we can be. As a result, we are both goal-oriented and hard-working, but it is not all that we are. We enjoy traveling, going to sporting events, and spending time with our extended families and friends. We were also blessed with the birth of our adopted daughter, Olivia, in 2016 and would love to have the opportunity to welcome another child to our growing family.
Our Home & Pets
We found our dream home six years ago. It is an “open concept,” walk-out ranch with a completed lower-level recreation room that leads to our spacious backyard and pool. We love our home, as it is a great place to raise a family and welcome our extended family and friends frequently in an open and relaxed manner. In addition, we live in a close-knit neighborhood with other families, and our kids are always playing together.
Our Extended Family
Danelle has one brother, and although their parents are divorced, her mom and dad are friendly, and her dad’s second marriage added a wonderful step-mom and three step-brothers to the family. She also has a very large extended family, with several aunts, uncles, and cousins. Joey’s family is a bit smaller. He is the youngest of three, with two older sisters. Regardless of size, both sides of our families are very close with us and we visit often with all of them.
We love spending holidays with our families and enjoy playing games, joking around, and making fabulous dinners to celebrate any occasion. Our families were so excited to welcome our daughter and will be overjoyed with the addition of another child into our close-knit unit.
What Led Us To Adoption
Having children and starting a family has been a dream for both of us. We began trying to conceive a child on our own as soon as we were married, and we tried several different options to make that happen. After our last IVF treatment was unsuccessful, we decided the best way to start a family was through adoption. Danelle’s extended family had adopted in the past, and as a result she has three cousins that joined the family and is Godmother to one of them. We adopted our daughter in 2016, and it has been the best decision we could have made. With the love and support of our families, the addition of another baby would be welcomed with open, loving arms.

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!
