dear expectant mother
We have so much admiration and respect for your consideration of an adoption plan. As someone who has chosen adoption for a baby in the past, we know that this decision is the most difficult to make and one that is done with the greatest amount of love. We believe in honesty and feel that it is critically important for a child to know where he or she came from. Please know that your story will be shared and your child will come to know that your decision was based on courage, compassion, and unconditional love.
We are incredibly excited to grow our family and provide your child with all the opportunities to explore their interests and hobbies as well as grow their natural talents. We have two beautiful boys who are thrilled to welcome a new baby into our home, making it a place where your child will have a family to love and cherish him or her. We welcome you to ask any questions that you may have as we want to be completely transparent. Thank you so much for reading our letter, and we wish you all the best on your journey.
About Us
Our love story began 25 years ago, and we are proud to have built a strong marriage; we just celebrated 15 years of marriage. We grew up on opposite sides of the country, Patricia in New England and William in Southern California. However, we found each other in the workplace when William relocated to Massachusetts. We have very diverse backgrounds: Patricia’s parents immigrated from Portugal, while William’s family came from Germany, Scotland, and Mexico. William’s mother was born in Buenos Aires. William is fluent in Spanish and Patricia in Portuguese, and both of us are fluent in Italian. Our hobbies include traveling, cooking, water sports, and cycling. Patricia is currently working as a college professor in a nursing program. William works as the director of sales and marketing for a company that makes specialized computer systems for first responders.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a beautiful community, surrounded by the ocean, on a dead-end street, where our children play and ride their bikes to school. We have a large yard and great neighborhood, which includes numerous children and families. Enjoying a campfire in our backyard and grilling outside is a routine family ritual that we want your baby to be part of. We live close to the city, which enables us to take advantage of everything urban living has to offer. Our boys enjoy Little League baseball, karate, music, swimming, and sailing. We have an English pointer who joins us in many of our outings. We also rent a beach house every summer, where we can swim, surf, and enjoy everything coastal living has to offer.
Our Extended Family
Family is very important to us, and we are incredibly grateful to be surrounded by such a large circle. Patricia’s family lives 20 minutes away. Patricia and her mother are extremely close; they are best friends. Patricia also has a brother and sister. Her extended family also lives close by, consisting of many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Seeing all of them regularly is our most favorite way to spend our time, not to mention the fun that all of the kids and cousins share. We can’t wait for your child to join us.
William’s family lives out West, so time with them is limited to a couple of times a year. William’s mom has driven across the country in a camper to see us on several occasions, and that has been quite fun. We spend holidays and birthdays together celebrating, and we make a whole day out of Sunday lunch, just enjoying good food, catching up, and being together.
What Led Us To Adoption
We are blessed with two wonderful sons but have always wanted to expand our family. Not only are we as parents excited about adoption but our boys are over the moon about a baby joining our family. Many years ago, William was touched by adoption when he helped create an adoption plan for his baby. Given that experience, we feel that we can relate to and understand many of the unique challenges that this journey entails. We promise to always provide your child with unconditional love and support and a life of boundless opportunities. If you choose to place your baby with us, it would be a tremendous fulfillment of our hopes and dreams to expand our family.

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!
