• Laura & Megan

  Thank you so much for taking the time to look at our profile. We admire your strength and the love you have for your child. We live in a friendly and diverse neighborhood in Philadelphia near lots of parks and playgrounds. Our block has a long tradition of amazing block parties where every family comes out to play and eat together. For as long as we can remember, we have both wanted to build a family through adoption.

• Sarah & Patrick

  We are Sarah and Patrick. We live in Northern NJ in a community less than an hour from Manhattan. Having a family was always important to us, and we are excited to welcome a child through adoption. After meeting in 2007, from the start we knew not only would we fall in love but also […]

• Tina & Mike

  Hi! Thanks for checking out our profile. We’re Mike and Tina, and we’ve been married for 11 years. In some ways, we’re very different. Mike is quiet and reserved, and loves to play and watch sports. Tina is talkative and energetic, and loves music and theater. But we both have common values and morals: being honest and truthful, treating others the way you want to be treated, cherishing those you love. These beliefs keep us committed to each other and to our family. 

• Kate

  Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read about me and my family as you consider the possibility of making an adoption plan for your child. I am an American who grew up in Europe, in a number of different countries. I came back to the United States while I was in high school, then I went to college in New Hampshire and graduate school in New York. I’ve been working in nonprofit organizations in New York ever since. I have a house in a quiet neighborhood with good schools, across from a conservation area.

• Lisa & Theo

  Hello my name is Lisa, and my name is Theo. I am a Special Education Preschool Teacher, and I am an Artist/Stock trader and we have been married for seven wonderful years. We are honest, compassionate, caring, committed and fun loving people. We were both like this when we were single and are even more like this as a couple. We can’t wait to share our lives with a child, a life filled with unconditional love, support, and adventure.

• Katherine

  My name is Katherine. Thank you for looking at my profile. I know you face enormous and overwhelming choices. I realized that I wanted to become a mother one day when I was driving home from spending a weekend with my nephews in NY. I found myself missing them already on the drive home, and I decided I didn’t want to have to drive away anymore. My mom taught me the value of caring for others and showed me how to be a mother by being an amazing mother herself. I hope to pass on that gift to a child as well.

• Lauren & Emily

  Hi! Our names are Lauren and Emily. (Lauren is the one with short hair; Emily has long hair). We’re honored to be considered as prospective adoptive parents. We are looking forward to sharing our lives with a child, and all the new adventures and challenges that will bring. We met in 2005 while working together as AmeriCorps members at a local housing program. Lauren pretended to be real tough, but Emily didn’t buy it. We were friends for many years until we started dating about five years ago. We were both surprised by how well we understood each other and got along! Emily appreciates Lauren’s steady cool and Lauren appreciates how Emily expands her comfort zone.

• Whitney & Robert

  Hello! We are Whitney and Robert. We met over ten years ago, and have been married since 2015. We are so thankful that you have chosen to learn about us and our dream of becoming parents. Although we don’t know you, we admire your thoughtfulness and bravery for considering adoption. We offer our heartfelt support as you plan the future for yourself and for your child. There are all sorts of factoids that can be scrambled together to explain us: we are people who place a premium on friendship and loyalty (we met at a mutual friend’s wedding); we love seeing the unfamiliar world (Whitney lived in London for a semester in college, and Robert has traveled around the country twice); we are “culture vultures” (museums, concerts, theater, movies, restaurants, books – we love it all). We are also big baseball fans. In short, we love being alive and are determined to experience as much of what is good on Earth as we can.

• Melanie & Joost

  Hello! We’re Melanie and Joost. Thank you for taking time to learn about us! It is an honor to be considered as a potential adoptive family for your child. We admire your courage and love in considering an adoption plan. We met while in graduate school and have been married since 2009. Sonja joined our family 4 years ago, and has brought such joy and love into our lives. We are both ready and excited to provide unconditional love to another child and to begin a new step on our parenthood journey. We are committed to providing a loving, safe, nurturing home where children can laugh, play, learn, grow and find support for achieving their individual dreams. Any child joining our family would be welcomed into a large family with loving grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, and friends. We are all very excited to welcome another child into our family!

• Eric & Tyler

  Hi there! Although we have not yet met you, we admire the strength, courage, and love you have for your child and we are humbled that you would consider allowing us to be part of your journey. We are grateful for the time you are spending getting to know us. We are two smart guys who can be serious when we need to be, but would much rather be adventurous and a little silly. Whether it’s a hayride with our nephews, surprise birthday trips, visiting every random tourist attraction we can find, or just quiet nights at home on the couch with our dogs, we try to pack as much fun into life as possible. And we can’t wait to share our crazy, wonderful life with a child.

• Johanna & Brad

  Hello!
  We are Johanna and Brad, a graphic and museum designer and attorney living in Brooklyn, NY. We’ve been together for 15 years, married for 10.
  While we realize this is a difficult time for you, we are very excited to share with you a brief window into our lives. We always knew we wanted to raise a child together, and we have been looking to start a family for several years now. We have chosen adoption as the way to build our family. We know that raising a child will have its unexpected challenges, but we are ready for the task. We are fortunate to have supportive family, steady jobs, and a wonderful home. Most importantly, we have a strong relationship filled with love. We are excited to be able to share this all with a child. We hope you can share in our vision.

We can’t imagine the emotions you are feeling right now, and we are honored that you’ve decided to learn more about us as you make a plan for the future.

• Rachel & Rich

  Thank you for considering our family as you explore the options that will be best for your baby and for your family. Rachel was adopted also. Because of her journey, we are familiar with the beauty, and struggles, that come with adoption. While no two adoption stories are the same, we believe Rachel’s experiences will help guide us in honoring the history and legacy of the child who joins our family through adoption. We are so excited to share our love with a little one.

Samantha works as an event producer and Caleb is a professional musician. We feel fortunate that we get to do what we love every day of our life and are SO ready to enrich those days (and nights!) with a baby. The both of us are committed to raising a child that knows and is proud of their history in a loving, respectful, and diverse environment.

Jon teaches writing and Henry teaches math. We’ve been together for five wonderful years, and married for the last year and a half.
