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
