Ben and Drew

Hello! Our names are Ben & Drew!

We live in Columbus, WI along with 2 cats, Mim & Twix, and our tortoise, Gus.

We are both daycare workers, Ben works with 2-3 year olds and Drew works with 4-5 year olds.

In our free time, we like to visit family, cook/bake, work on crafts, garden, along with the occasional relaxation. Our family loves going on adventures and seeing new places. Our goal is to take a trip to Hawaii one day. Every July, we take a week to visit Drew’s extended family on a beach in Oak Island, NC. Drew’s family has been doing this for the last 30 years.

Our extended family is vast and very supportive of an impending baby in our future.

Keith and Jessica

Hello, we are Keith and Jessica!

We both work in the financial community. Keith is a Financial Control Analyst. Jessica is a Quality Control Analyst. We live in south eastern Wisconsin on 4.5 acres outside of town. We have been married for almost 5 years.  We have 2 miniature goldendoodles, a cat, and a tortoise. We spend lots of time outdoors camping, hiking, gardening and playing with our dogs.

Both of our families have been touched by adoption; Jessica and her siblings are adopted and Keith’s half-sister was adopted.  Our families are very supportive and excited for us as we continue on our adoption journey.

Thank you for taking time to read a little about us. We will be praying for you and we wish you the best as you navigate your decision.

Melissa and Troy

Hello! We are Melissa and Troy from Sussex, just outside of the city of Milwaukee Wisconsin. We have always dreamed of becoming parents, and are excited to be on our adoption journey. We are a family of four with our Shorkie, Zoey, and our Mini Goldendoodle, Lucy.  In our free time, we love to go to the dog park, garden, and hang out with our family and friends. We enjoy going to our family’s cabin up north, exploring the many parks and trails around our neighborhood, and going on family vacations.

We understand that this is one of the biggest decisions you may ever have to make in your life. We hope that we can show you that we would make great parents for your child. We will love them unconditionally and wholeheartedly. We promise to give your child a childhood filled with many fun and wonderful experiences.  We would welcome an open adoption and see the 
value in maintaining birth family connections.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to share a little about ourselves, and look forward to answering any questions you might have. We truly wish the best for you in whatever decision you make. Love, Melissa & Troy

Alex and Drew

Hello! We are Drew and Alex from Stoughton, Wisconsin. We are currently a family of 5 with two dogs (Emmy and Lily) and a cat (Lenny). We are so excited to be on our adoption journey, as this is a dream come true for both of us. Alex is a District Manager for one of Wisconsin’s most beloved stores, Kwik Trip; and Drew is an Accountant for the county we live in. In our free time, we love to travel as much as possible. We are so excited to add a child to our adventures and explore the world together! We also love to spend time with our dogs at the dog park, bike, camp, attend local festivals, and spend time with family. Drew is excited to teach our future child how to cook a five course meal and be a professional bowler, while Alex is excited to teach about everything Harry Potter and Pokémon.

We are so excited to have an open and transparent adoption with you. We know how difficult of a decision this is to make and will stand by your wishes and beliefs wholeheartedly. It takes a village to raise a child and you will be part of our village. Thank you for your consideration!

Andrew and Rachel

We are Andrew and Rachel, and we’ve been together for 7 wonderful years, married for 3 of them. Our family includes three adorable cats: Cookie, Tigger, and Snuggles. Both of us work in the healthcare field—Andrew as a Metrologist/Engineer for a Cancer Diagnostic Organization, and Rachel as a Nurse Recruiter for a Healthcare Organization. We find our work deeply rewarding because it allows us to help others and gives us a strong sense of purpose.

We live in the suburbs of Madison/Deforest with a great school district, in a friendly neighborhood with a park and plenty of kids to play with. Our home is a cozy 4-bedroom, 2-bath house with a den and a fenced-in yard. We’re lucky to be near many fun activities for children, like the zoos, children’s museums, apple orchards, parks, pumpkin patches, and Wisconsin Dells.

Spending time together is incredibly important to us, and we have a passion for learning new things! We cherish our weekly movie nights, love cooking new recipes, and thrive on enjoying new experiences. Rachel is practicing Spanish and French, while Andrew is learning German. Traveling is one of our greatest passions—we’ve explored places like France, Japan, Italy, and Hawaii, and we love bringing new cultures home with us.

We have a fantastic support system, with friends and family who show us unconditional love. We enjoy having cookouts with friends and family, celebrating holiday traditions, and creating our own family traditions. Our family values are built on open communication, love, and unwavering support.

We understand that this is a difficult decision, and we are deeply grateful for you considering us. We are here to support you in any way you may need. We look forward to sharing all of our adventures and family with your child. We are thrilled to be a part of your adoption journey and can’t wait to make beautiful new memories as a family in our home!

Nathan and Jessica

Hi there! We’re Nathan and Jessica, a couple deeply in love for 17 incredible years. We’ve always known that we wanted to raise a child, sharing our joy and experiences with them. After a journey through infertility, we realized that adoption was our path, an answer that came as naturally as our love did when we first met.

Our promise to you and your child is unwavering: We’ll lead with love, learn and grow together, and provide the best education we can offer. Your child will be cherished, loved like none other, and surrounded by a diverse, nurturing environment filled with opportunities to thrive.

Our journey wouldn’t be possible without the profound love and bravery that you bring. We see you, honor you, and are excited to welcome your child into our family. They will know their story—how your strength and our commitment united us in love.

We can’t wait to meet you and embark on this beautiful journey together!

Kevin and Lyndsey

We’re Kevin, Lyndsey, JD and Leia (our dog). Both of us have been blessed with stable, loving families who have nurtured us throughout our lives. Finding each other back in 2008 (yikes that was a long time ago!) was a true blessing. Our journey has led us to our son, who has filled our lives with indescribable joy. 

Now, we’re thrilled about the possibility of expanding our family. Family is everything to us. We cherish every moment we’re together, whether it’s exploring our city and state, traveling further afar, hiking, spending time with loved ones, or simply having a cozy night at home. Our house is a place of unconditional love and acceptance, and we promise to make sure every child feels valued, safe, and cherished. The same is true for anyone who loves our children.

We live and work in Racine, WI – Lyndsey works in Human Resources and Kevin is a Financial Advisor. Our house is a character filled tudor-style home. While we’re both Wisconsin natives, we moved to Racine not that long ago and still enjoy getting to know our new city and all it has to offer. This summer we took sailing lessons at the yacht club and Kevin is a member of the curling club in the winter. Because of our proximity to Milwaukee, we’re never short of things to fill our weekend with and particularly enjoy trying new restaurants, walking along the lake shore, and regular visits to the Milwaukee Public Museum. 

We’re so grateful to have the chance to share a bit of our story with you. Know that you’re in our thoughts, and we wish you all the best as you navigate this journey.

ABOUT ORGANIZATION

What our clients say

 

I can’t imagine a better experience than working with Cindy! She was incredibly thorough and detailed in her explanations of every step of the process. She was INCREDIBLY responsive and even helped us with things that were technically not in her job description. We ended up leaning on her more than any other person in our adoption journey. She was also extremely thoughtful and kind to the birth mother, which is the most important thing in my opinion. We are so happy with our new baby boy and cannot thank her enough for helping us through this process.

Adoption Ave & Cindy are wonderful. As a biological mother, my pregnancy and adoption were a happy experience.

A picture of Cindy can go in the dictionary to define “bubbly”. She is also organized and fiercely protective of birth mothers. I’ve been in contact with many families and adoption agencies before finding Cindy… the difference is day and night. She spoke to me with respect and kindness, she is passionate for her work and has decades of experience. Both myself and the biological father felt comfortable and welcome from the first time we met her.

I knew that I could contact her at any time for questions or support and sometimes did. Even after the adoption, she was receptive to me reaching out, even about unrelated topics & I believe that Cindy and I will have an ongoing connection.

The adoptive parents also loved her! She took charge of the “behind the scenes” stuff and that went so smoothly – I didn’t have to lift a finger even once to get support and legal requirements arranged. Thanks to her experience, she set us up with a strong legal team and the parents were able to leave Wisconsin with the baby in less than a week! We expected to be stuck for much longer.

Cindy and the adoptive parents are among the most amazing people I’ve met in the past years. I highly recommend them & I am so glad that I didn’t settle for anyone else.
