Our Story
Dear Birth Parent,
Thank you so much for considering me to become a part of your and your child’s life, and for taking the time to get to know me.
The respect I have for you and the incredible decision you have made cannot be put into words. The love you have for your child is obvious, and I want you to know that I will always provide a loving and safe home for your child. They will always be my #1 priority, and I will love them unconditionally . Your child will be raised in a home full of love and laughter. They will know about you, your love for them, and the precious gift you have given. We will always love and think of you.
About me
I live with my new puppy, Luna Bella, who is an 8-month-old Mini Dachshund. She is the cutest and most snuggly little bundle of joy. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood, full of other families with kids. There are several parks within a mile radius, and a children’s library with lots of activities geared toward early childhood development for children under 4. There are two schools within walking distance as well with incredible facilities available to the community, and the neighborhood has lots of activities for kids happening year-round. It is a perfect neighborhood to raise a child!
Another perk is that my brother lives a mile away with his wife and two daughters, whom I am very close to. My nieces (6 and 8) are absolutely thrilled about gaining a new baby cousin they can play with and teach things to. My mother lives just 15 minutes away, whom I see often. My father is deceased, but I have a wonderful relationship with my stepmom and stepsister who also live in the area. Family is very important to me, and I spend a lot of time with them. Everyone is very supportive of my adoption journey and they are excited to meet the future newest family-member-to-be!

Thank you again for considering me as a potential parent to provide a loving and safe home for your child. If you were to choose me, my hope is to foster a trusting and open relationship, with your child’s happiness and needs always being the top priority. If you are not comfortable having very much and/or any involvement, however, I fully respect and support that decision as well.
I wish you all the best in your journey!
Warmest regards,
Kimberly

Dear friend, Thank you for taking the time to consider me as a potential mother to your child. I know this is an enormous decision and I am very grateful. I hope that by looking through my profile you will get an idea of what your child’s life would be like if I were to be chosen as their adoptive mother. Here’s a little more about me: I am a single professional woman, living in a large city. I have always wanted to be a mother, and I have had many people in my life with positive experiences of adoption. Some words friends and family would use to describe me are: Loyal and trustworthy, creative, a deep thinker, and independent. My job requires me to be a leader and stay very organized. So when I’m not working I keep things as relaxed as possible; slow weekend mornings at home are my favorite! One of the things I’m most grateful for in my life is my education. I attended some great schools and they taught me a love of lifelong learning. I am also a lover of beauty and style. I enjoy fashion and interior design and I love the ways you can use both to express yourself. Aside from adopting, one of my biggest goals is to someday travel to Australia, Japan, and East Africa, all places I’ve never been! I have a strong community and my family and friends are all very excited to welcome a new child. My family consists of my parents, my brother, my sister and her husband and their two sons. They all live in another state but we make it a priority to visit often. I also have many friends who will be great “aunties” and “uncles” to a child I bring home. My neighborhood is very walkable and there are lots of small children who enjoy the nearby parks, play areas, and all the things that come with city living. I love to read, play tennis, go birdwatching, take long walks with my dog, and go on road trips. I’m very interested in interior design, and I’m an animal lover and have always had pets. I speak French and would ensure a child also learns a language other than English so they can see the world and communicate with many different people. I would also make sure they are exposed to the arts, sports, and culture as much as possible. I live in a big city close to lots of great museums, parks, restaurants, cultural activities and public transportation. It is important to me that people take the opportunity to see as much of the world as they can. I have been lucky to travel to many different countries and really value learning about other cultures and ways of life. I can’t wait to share the same perspective and opportunities with a child. It is my hope to provide a child with an enriching, safe, healthy home. And I hope over the next few pages you start to envision the kind of life–full of love, learning, and opportunity–that I hope to give your child. Kindest wishes, Meredith

Dear Birth Parent, I’m Mary-Kate and my journey toward motherhood has been a path of deep hope and strong intention. For five years, I poured my heart into trying to conceive, and while my body couldn’t carry a pregnancy, this experience only made my desire to be a mom stronger. This reality beautifully showed me that motherhood comes in many forms, and what truly matters is the immense love and care I am ready to give. Exploring adoption now brings me a profound sense of peace and joy, as I know this is the true path to building my family. I would be incredibly humbled to be chosen to care for your precious child. I am ready to learn and grow as their parent, offering steadfast support and walking alongside them throughout life’s journey, always there for whatever they need. I’m a responsible and generous person who loves family. I grew up with six siblings, so I’m naturally social, flexible, and very comfortable with friendly chaos. Being “Aunty Mary-Kate” to 12 nieces and nephews—from toddlers to teens—has already prepared me for the joys and challenges of raising a child! I like to keep moving and am always planning the next fun thing, whether it’s trying a new sport, traveling, or finding a local adventure. I speak Spanish and French so I love any excuse to practice. My biggest dream is to build a life with a loving family of my own. My heart has lots of room for one more. I can’t wait for life to be all about playing with the toys on the floor, bathtime and reading stories at bedtime. That would be magical! Thank you for reading my story. I am so grateful to be considered as welcoming a child into my home would be the greatest honor. Kindest regards Mary-Kate
