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

I would never...

"use physical punishments on a child. Studies have shown that it is always a negative experience for a child. Starting from a calm and mature standpoint helps the child create a more secure attachment." - Valeria

Dogs or cats?

"I love cats, but we're both allergic so we're a dog household! " - Meghan

My favorite place in the World is...

"Walking in the woods. I feel like I could solve any problem if I could just walk long enough." - Audrey

If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?

"RV. We already have one so I know how great they are! I love that you can drive anywhere! The beach, the desert, the mountains, the lake, anywhere! Your options are limited on a sailboat. My dogs would go nuts cooped up on a boat too. Also- I sunburn easily so I'd be a lobster living on a sailboat." - Becca

My favorite place in the World is...

"home. I've traveled a lot around the world but my favorite thing is to come back home at the end of each trip and enjoy reconnecting with the people and places who help make me who I am at heart. My family is there excited to hear about my adventures but then even more delighted to share a meal and enjoy the beauty of the valley where we live." - Monique

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs and cats! We have an 8 years old cat (from Venezuela) name Cata and an 1 year dog name Nana we love both so much " - Lorena Jiménez

If I could have dinner with anyone—dead or alive—I would pick...

"Taylor Swift, I admire her song writing and vocals, but also her humanitarian efforts. I've been a Swiftie since 2008, and am still going strong." - Alyssa

Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”

"Apart from my family (pets included!), I'd say music. For me, music is my go-to for whenever I need a spark of motivation or shift in mood. It is also something that Bob and I enjoy together. Though we don't always have the same taste in music, we love showing each other new bands and singing along to songs as we power through some housework or while we cook together." - Sam
