dear expectant mother
We know the path you’re considering isn’t an easy one, and we are so thankful you are considering giving us the opportunity to raise your child with all of the love and care we have. We promise to make sure they know how much you love them and how brave and strong you are.
We are excited to share our lives with your child, teaching and mentoring them, celebrating holidays, traveling together, and supporting them through their extracurricular activities (plays, sports, etc). We look forward to family dinners talking about our day and having family game nights! As a faith-based, Christian family we are excited to teach your child about the love of Jesus Christ. We want them to be able to attend Sunday school, where they can make lifelong friends just like we did.
We can’t wait to teach your child the family values we grew up with, and they will know our family will always stand by their side with nothing but love for whatever the future holds. Thank you for taking us into consideration!
About Us
We met 11 years ago through a dating service, but ironically, we knew each other previously through church and family friends. The moment we met, we hit it off and almost instantly knew we were meant for each other. Being a manager in data management and a water resources engineer, we enjoy the quiet afterwork life we lead just spending time together watching TV (especially cooking shows!) or playing board games. We are foodies and love to try different types of food and restaurants when possible. On the weekends, we enjoy going on nature hikes and visiting our families. Since our parents and siblings live within 30 minutes from us, we enjoy spending the weekends with them catching up, making plans, cooking and eating together, and reminiscing.
Our Home & Pets
We live in suburban Pennsylvania and have a lot of amenities nearby, including restaurants, parks, hiking trails, and both a mall and outlets nearby for shopping. We can’t wait to be able to walk in the park and enjoy the weather with your baby. We are part of an HOA community and live in a three-bedroom townhome. We share a huge backyard that is open to play games or barbecue on our deck while watching our cute Shiba Inu puppy run around in the backyard and play in the grass.
Our Extended Family
As part of an Asian Indian community, we are very close with our extended family. Our families love to gather for holidays and occasions, and we genuinely enjoy each other's company. We enjoy doing different things with family and friends, like going to plays, concerts, games, parades, and taking domestic and international trips.
Everyone in our family is very supportive of our decision to adopt. They know our desire to have children and they are excited for a new grandchild, niece, or nephew. Your baby will be loved and cherished by our friends and whole family. They will shower them with hugs, kisses, gifts, and endless love. We are blessed with prayerful families and friends who will continuously support your baby.
What Led Us To Adoption
We always knew we wanted to have children, we dreamed of 3 kids. However, we struggle with infertility and have gone through multiple cycles of IUI and IVF with no success. It was very challenging to deal with emotionally, but we have not given up on our dream of becoming parents. After speaking with friends who have either fostered or adopted, we know that adoption is the answer to our prayers. We have so much love to give and are eager to welcome a child into 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!
