Tifphanie and Ryan

We are Ryan and Tifphanie. Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for considering us as potential parents for your child. We are humbled and excited at the possibility. The gift of adoption is profound, and we acknowledge your courage and selfless consideration as you find your way forward. May you feel clear and strong during what must be a very challenging time. May you feel surrounded with love and care. Ryan and I have wanted to be parents for a long time. We are so ready to pour our love and attention into a child. To share our home, our family, and our life. We promise to offer a supportive and loving environment for your child to grow, flourish, and thrive. We promise to do our best to offer safety, security, and sound guidance as they find their way into and through this life. We are open and available to you. We trust that the connection of our families will be a beautiful and enriching experience for each one of us, and that we can all work together to create the best plan for your child’s well-being. We look forward to the opportunity and are excited to meet you.

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 see adoption as a beautiful, brave, and deeply loving choice

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

Our Promise to You

If you choose us, your child will grow up:
• Surrounded by unshakable love
• Encouraged to explore their identity and passions
• Raised with deep respect for you and their full story
• In a home filled with music, laughter, books, and learning
We’re here, ready, and waiting with open hearts.
Thank you for taking the time to read about our family and for considering us as you make your plans for adoption. We are available to you and we are eager to share more about ourselves and to get to know you and your hopes and dreams for your own life, as well as your vision for the life of this child. Our shared interest is to ensure a secure and happy future for this little one as best we can. We promise to make every effort to make sure this child knows that you made your decision from a place of love. We respect and admire what you are doing so deeply, and it would absolutely be our honor to know you and to raise your child, should that be what your heart chooses.

With love,

Tifphanie and Ryan
