Who We Are
Tifphanie: Musician, creative spirit, nurturing soul
Ryan: Nature lover, steady presence, devoted partner
Married for 5 years and together for over a decade
We share a deep commitment, laughter, and lots of music in our home
What connects us most is our shared values:
• Respect and communication
• Creativity and exploration
• Deep empathy and unconditional love
Both of us had always pictured ourselves with children, and we hoped to start our family right away following our wedding. When we were unable to do so, we started to discuss the possibility of adoption as a way to expand our family. We each have cousins who were adopted as babies, and who were a very integrated part of our respective families. We also have friends who have adopted and one of Tifphanie’s friends is a birth mother who placed her baby for adoption over 20 years ago. To us, the possibility of adoption is a profound privilege. The opportunity to parent a child and grow our family is a sacred one.
Our Home Life
We live in a peaceful, safe neighborhood surrounded by nature.
Our days are filled with:
• Music (we play and teach!)
• Outdoor hikes and adventures
• Cozy family dinners
• Visits from our loving extended family and close-knit community
Our dream is to raise a child in a warm, nurturing environment full of joy, discovery, and love.
From Tifphanie
“I’ve always wanted to be a mother.”
As a music teacher and doula, I’ve spent years caring for and supporting children and families.
• I’m nurturing, intuitive, and grounded
• I see parenting as a sacred responsibility
• Adoption is a path I’ve held in my heart for many years
From Ryan
“I look forward to late-night feedings, bedtime stories, and tiny hands wrapped around mine.”
I grew up with strong family values and can’t wait to share them.
• I love being outdoors and exploring with children
• I’m calm, patient, and always ready to listen
• Becoming a father is the greatest role I could imagine
Why Adoption?
• We’ve always known we wanted to adopt
• We believe every child deserves unconditional love and security

We promise to honor your story and speak of your love with reverence and gratitude.

If you choose us, your child will grow up:
• Surrounded by unshakable love
