Meet our
Waiting Families

We are the best choice because…

"We are the best because we offer love and stability in a child's life. The Child's safety will always be the most important factor to our child rearing. I not only want to be a friend to our child, but also, someone that they look up to. I have always dreamed of being a mother and creating wonderful experiences for my child and having a close and connected relationship with them, while also encouraging them to be their own individual person. Jackie and I both value the importance of education, creativity, travel and experiences to help shape the future of our child." - Caroline

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"we live in the suburbs in the PNW. We have access to all kinds of parks, nature, and events, as well as living feet away from a highly rated elementary school!" - Steven

Dogs or cats?

"Definitely dogs" - Mike

When we argue, what’s it about?

"Who's turn it is to clean up the cat/dog throw up." - Audrey

In five years our relationship with our child’s birth mother will…

"I hope we are genuine friends who communicate regularly. I would love for us to have a healthy relationship to bless not only our lives but the life of the child we both love fiercely." - Becca

What scares you?

"Even more than my distaste for snakes, I am afraid of doing too little to improve my community. Many organizations like Boy Scouts stress that you should leave a campsite better than you found it. I would be horrified if I did not give my community the same respect." - Alex

What is the best word to describe our family?

"Resilience " - Lorena Jiménez

My best friend would describe me as...

"Calm and consistent." - Sean Scott

My philosophy on parenting is...

"to provide unconditional love and support while fostering independence and curiosity. I believe in teaching through example, approaching discipline with empathy and patience, and prioritizing open communication. My hope is to create a home environment that nurtures confidence, stewardship, and authenticity, allowing children to grow into individuals who are true to themselves and deeply compassionate toward others." - Sam
