Meet our Families Awaiting an Infant Placement

Listed below are a few of our approved families who are hoping to adopt. Prospective birthparents are encouraged to explore and consider the benefits of Open Adoption. Open Adoption allows you the opportunity to maintain a connection and relationship with your child and the adoptive family. With open adoption, you are able to choose and meet the adoptive family and the level of openness that you might want to have with them. Your counselor will discuss the benefits of open adoption with you and provide support through the process of choosing and/or meeting the adoptive family.

Please note that not all of our families may be listed here. If you would like more information on any of these or other families, please call our toll-free hotline, available 24 hours, 7 days a week at 1.888.325.6621.

Linda & Justin Hi!  We are Justin and Linda.  Welcome to our life!  We have lots of parenting experience since our children have come to us both biologically and by adoption.  We believe that we are being called to grow our family through adoption yet again!  We never run out of fun and exciting things to do together and we can’t wait to share many more wonderful adventures with the newest little member of our family! 
 Lowell_Amy  Hi, we are Amy and Lowell! We met in 1999 and have been married since 2005. We live in a charming ranch style home in a wonderful neighborhood with our dog Daisy. Amy has a huge heart and is always there for others. Lowell is loving, adventurous, and enthusiastic. Family and friends are very important to us. Our parents are not far away and they are eager to be active grandparents in our child’s life. We always knew that parenting was for us! We are looking forward to sharing our love and many blessings with a child. We know that if we are blessed to adopt we will love and nurture him/her to be the individual they were born to be. To become parents would make our dreams come true. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us and we wish you the best in your decision.
Rob_Jen Hi, we are Bob and Jen. These are our amazing son’s Austin and Dylan. We have been blessed in our life with two wonderful children and the desire to add to our family continues to grow more each day. Choosing us to raise your child is the biggest gift anyone could give our family and in return we can promise you the best life for your child. It will be filled with love, stability, and dedication to providing the best in every way for this baby. Adoption was such a natural choice for us and I know it must be so hard for you. Reading this paragraph and looking at our picture only gives you a small portion of the life we have, the fun things we like to do, and the life we can offer. Hopefully we can meet and start a wonderful adoption journey together!
Jen, Bob, Austin, & Dylan
Terri_Paul_David Hi, we are Terry, Paul and two year old David, who can’t wait to be a big brother.  We live in a very spacious 5 bedroom home just blocks from the schools and park.  Spending time together anywhere is our favorite thing to do.  David particularly enjoys being outside playing with his cousins or the children in our neighborhood.  Paul and I love being parents and are dedicated to raising a happy and healthy family. We will always be very calm and patient with all of our children.  David was born very prematurely, weighing just two and a half pounds.  After watching him struggle to survive in intensive care for several months, everyday little things don’t bother us.  We never sweat the small stuff in life.  Instead, we look at David’s smiling face and can’t help but smile back at his latest creation.  Thank you for considering us. We wish you all the best.
Jason and Liz Hi, we’re Liz and Jason. We have a three-year-old son, Ryan, and we’re excited about adding another child to our family. As a family, we really value the time we spend together. Ryan likes to play cars with us, we read to him every night, and sometimes he even helps Liz make dinner in the kitchen. On the weekends, we often go to the pool, beach, or playground. Your baby will have a close extended family – grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins are all excited about a new addition. If you’d like, we’d be happy to stay in contact so that your child will be able to build his or her own relationship with you.

Ray and Lois

Hello and thank you for taking the time to learn more about us. We are Ray and Lois. Our family consists of a father, a mother, and two loving sons, ages 6 and 4 years old. We desire to have another child to cherish, love and nurture. We would provide your child a safe, warm, loving home in a community filled with friends. Moreover, your child would not be lacking for hugs and kisses from us and the boys. Education is very important to us, and we work hard to instill a love of learning in our children. We cuddle up on the chair in their rooms to read each night. We are an extremely close family. Whether we are watching our oldest play soccer, swimming at our swim club, going to the shore, or playing on a local playground, we love being together. Laughter is a huge part of our life. Just hearing our boy’s laughter brings a smile to our faces.

Frank and Beth

PLACED

Its a boyHi – we are Beth and Frank .  We have two adopted sons Josiah ( 5 ) and Julian ( 3 ) who are the light of our life.  Spending time with our boys is our biggest priority.  We love taking them camping, playing together, having “fun night” each week and just recently got back from a cruise.  We also spend a lot of time on Beth’s parents farm where we go fishing, go for four-wheeler rides, ride horses and hang out with Beth’s 4 sisters and the boy’s 10 cousins.   We believe in teaching our children through example and try to model kindness, grace, and love towards each other and the people we meet.   Having the opportunity to have another child to nurture and love, and to have a brother or sister for our boys to love and be loved by, is something we are so looking forward too.

Scott and Tina

 PLACED

Its a boyWe are Scott and Tina. While your decision is a difficult one, our hope is that after reading our story, you might feel that our paths have crossed at this time for a reason.  Married since 2003, we have a strong, loving relationship that began as a friendship in 1994. As our lives have developed, we have been blessed with a wonderful home in a historic town, stable careers and loving family relationships. We are active and enjoy the outdoors.
Family dinners, holiday gatherings and summer trips have blessed us with many great memories, but our lives just don’t seem complete without a child. While time has tested us, it has also created two of the most appreciative and loving people you will ever meet. If unconditional support and love can nurture a child, then we may be the most prepared would-be parents around.  We appreciate you taking the time to get to know us. Our hope is for an open, healthy relationship with this child and you, the birthparents, for a lifetime to come.
