I'm looking to adopt a baby
I’m Rachel! Thank you so much for stopping by my profile to hear about my story and learn a little about me as a prospective parent.
I have the utmost dignity and respect for you as you consider the best option for your baby. I teach bravery and courage for a living and I deeply appreciate the bravery and considerations in this decision you are weighing. If I am the right fit for you, I promise you that a child will always know who you are. You will be spoken of with care and respect daily.
I was born to be a mom – in fact, my staff at a former job used to refer to me as “Mama Rach!” I always knew I wanted to be a mother. Although life hasn’t yet brought a special someone to start the journey of parenting with, I am VERY MUCH ready to be a single mom. While I would still love to meet a great guy and partner, please know that a child will always come first.
I have so much love in my heart and my diverse friends and family are so excited to welcome, love and cherish a new member of our “village.” I have friends of many different races and they have all committed to helping me best parent a child if s/he may be of a different race.
I hope you consider me and my extended family to welcome and love your child. It would be the honor of a lifetime.
Thank you,
Rachel
