We promise to support your child emotionally as they express their individuality. Our parents are very loving and made sure we were exposed to any interests we had early in our lives. It would make us proud to share the same opportunities with your child.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our profile. We would be honored to speak with your regarding any further information you would like to learn about us throughout your decision-making process.
About Us
We are a very fun loving couple and are excited to become parents. We met in college and have known each other for ten years. We have been together for nine years and have been married for a year and a half. We are always there for each other. Scott will randomly come home with flowers for Teri and tell her, “these are just because I love you.”
Teri is a big kid at heart and loves making people laugh. She puts her friends and family first. She is a child developmental therapist working with children between ages 0 and three, who have developmental delays and a variety of disabilities.
Scott has a good sense of humor, a laid back personality, and he is a very hard worker. His career is in the field of international export, and he builds strong connections all across North America and Asia.
Our Home & Pets
We live in a three-bedroom split-level house with one-and-a-half baths. It’s on a corner lot in the suburbs. We enjoy having a fenced-in backyard where we have BBQs and play outdoor yard games when the weather is nice. Scott enjoys cooking steaks on the grill and Teri enjoys relaxing on the patio. Our family enjoys helping us with yard work and we have future plans to create a garden where we can grow fresh vegetables. We are within walking distance to our assigned schools which are in a highly-ranked school district. Multiple parks are within walking distance along with Teri’s health club, which offers a variety of child-friendly activities to promote health and wellness at a young age.
Our Extended Family
If you choose us, your baby will be welcomed into a large extended family. We have four grandparents, one great-grandmother, two aunts, four uncles and four first cousins. And this is not to mention our circle of friends who have young children. We can’t wait to bring a baby to friend and family gatherings. Scott is a twin, and we are open to welcoming multiples into our home. Scott’s aunt adopted two of his cousins from Uganda, Africa. We also have multiple friends that were adopted and have been a great support to us.
We enjoy spending holidays with family, and we are always kept busy with family events such as birthday parties or just a day together with family if we haven’t seen each other in awhile. Teri has family on the east coast in New York, New Hampshire, and Connecticut. The east coast has always been a second home to Teri.
What Led Us To Adoption
We talked about having a family before we were married. We talked about the “what if’s” if we could not conceive a child biologically. Adoption was always an option we kept open. After a few months of trying to become pregnant, we endured testing and it was determined we had infertility challenges. We explored our options and discussed where to go from here. That was when we were referred to Angel Adoption. We are excited to grow our family from two to three by adoption.

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!
