dear expectant mother

We are so grateful for this incredible opportunity you are considering giving us. We cannot even begin to imagine how hard this must be for you and want you to know this is a truly selfless decision that shows just how brave and strong you are. Should you choose us, your baby will be loved immensely; there are not enough words to express how overjoyed we would be to receive this precious gift.

We are so excited to become mothers. If you bless us with this incredible gift, our dreams can come true. We will raise your child in a home where they will always be loved and accepted for who they are and whoever they will become. We will support them, encourage them, nurture them, and provide a positive and safe environment for them to grow up in. We know they will grow up to be fearless, confident, and kind-hearted, just like you.

We can't wait to share Dorothy's passion for soccer and Valerie's love of books with your child. We look forward to continuing our traditions as a family and making new ones as our family grows. We hope you find comfort in knowing your child will grow up surrounded by so many people who already love them.

About Us

We are very excited to introduce ourselves to you. Our names are Valerie and Dorothy. We have been together for eight years and married for three! Dorothy works as a Director of Student Development and Valerie is a Recruiting Coordinator. In our spare time, we enjoy walking around local flea markets and farmers markets on Sunday mornings. We also like baking and cooking, especially with all the fresh fruit and veggies we get every weekend! Once a month we host a board game and invite all of our friends over for a fun filled night of playing Cards Against Humanity and Settlers of Catan. But our favorite activities to do would have to be finding new hiking trails and lakes to kayak in around our home state of Connecticut! When we aren’t out finding new adventures to go on, we are at home cuddling up with our four rescue animals.

Our Home & Pets

One of the things we love about our house is the location. We live near multiple lakes and can see the amazing sunsets right from our backyard. Our neighborhood is very inviting and calm, and the school districts are rated very highly! We live in a cottage-style home with a fenced-in yard and a large deck. Our backyard is perfect for a swing set and sandbox! We cannot wait to spend the summers outside playing and building up your child's imagination. We have lived in our house for six years and have made it a home, especially with our four pets. We have two dogs, Edgar and Beanie, and two cats, Shiloh and Ritz, who are all little snuggle bugs and will become your child’s best friend right from the start.

Our Extended Family

Dorothy is an only child, and her mother is very supportive of the process. Dorothy’s grandmother who is an astounding 103 years old, is excited to be able to become a great-grandmother! Valerie has an older sister and a brother and is an aunt to many! Our friends, whom we also consider our family, have been supportive of us since the beginning and are delighted to go through this journey with us.

We have created many wonderful and fun traditions as a family. We host an annual ugly Christmas sweater party for all of our friends! Every year in the fall we go hunting for the best pumpkins and apples we can find at our local orchards and spend hours figuring out the best family costume for halloween! In the winter we search many tree farms for the perfect christmas tree and always decorate it in our matching pjs with a warm cup of coco! These are the traditions we would love to keep and continue as we expand our family.

Our friends and family couldn’t be any more thrilled to help us welcome a new edition into our lives and will spoil them endlessly with love and support.

What Led Us To Adoption

Early on in our relationship, we knew when it was time for us to start a family, we would pursue adoption. In our professional journeys, we have been fortunate to see firsthand the incredible impact adoption has on children and families. We already have so much love in our hearts for our future child and are eager to provide your baby with a home that is loving, supportive, nurturing, and filled with adventures. In these last few years, we have created a wonderful life together and would like nothing more than to share it with a child.
