About Us
We are Amanda and Jared, and we are so excited to be going on this journey with you. Here is a little bit about us, and we hope to get to know you soon. As a couple, we both have a deep passion for exploring new destinations and immersing ourselves in unique experiences. We're constantly on the lookout for our next exciting adventure. Together, we have traveled to 12 different countries. Our shared sense of humor is a cornerstone of our relationship, and we genuinely enjoy making each other laugh. Additionally, we take great pleasure in caring for those around us and making them feel special. On a typical day, we love spending time cooking delicious meals together, taking our dog for a walk, and unwinding by either watching movies or playing games. These moments of connection are what make our daily life fulfilling and enjoyable.
Our Home & Pets
Our home is a charming two-story, three-bedroom retreat bathed in natural light. It offers ample space for both playful activities and cozy moments with a good book. The backyard is a serene oasis, featuring a hammock and shaded areas perfect for unwinding and relaxation. We are near our town square, and can't wait to take our kid to the playground, to play in the fountain, and to listen to concerts. We have a dog named Luna, who is ten pounds of fluff and love. She is hypoallergenic and doesn’t shed, which is always a bonus! Our school district is made up of 71 schools with a graduation rate of 95.2%.
Our Extended Family
Both of our parents live nearby, as well as Amanda's aunts, uncles, and cousins live in the surrounding area, and both families blend together for huge celebrations and holidays.
We have a chosen family in our friends that we have weekly family dinners, and game nights with. Jared's brother and quite a few of our friends have started families. We enjoy being a part of their journey as new parents.
Our friends and family are our home, and we cherish every moment with them. They are all so excited to welcome and love our new child.
What Led Us To Adoption
Adoption was always part of the plan for Amanda as both she and her mom were adopted. Amanda's mom was adopted into a loving family, and Amanda was adopted by her father shortly after she was born. When Jared entered the picture and saw all the love that comes from an adopted family, he knew right away this would be a fit for him as well. Both of us cannot wait to love our child and show them the world.

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!
