Hi! We’re Stefanie and Kenny

We’re hoping to adopt!

Learn more about us by downloading and reading our adoption profile book.

We are so very excited to introduce ourselves. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time getting to know us.

Our home is full of love, laughter, and nurturance and we can’t wait to expand our family.

We are passionate about nature, all relationships in our lives, and about living life to the fullest. We are grateful to have the possibility to enjoy our passions, including travel and sports, while incorporating our love for friends, animals and nature. We are thankful to have a close community of family and friends, and for Roni, our inquisitive, friendly and adorable little pup. 

Our journey began almost 10 years ago when we fell in love and married. We had a strong desire to expand our family and to raise children from the beginning. While our path has taken many different turns, we are truly hopeful that this journey will bless us with a child who we will love unconditionally. 

Your precious child will be welcomed with open hearts and arms. We promise to provide everything in our power to ensure a happy, healthy and prosperous future, and to raise your child with every ounce of love, nurturance, and support that we can give. We would love to learn about you, your family and your thoughts about the adoption.

OUR LOVE STORY

our story began unexpectedly, during a summer almost 10 years ago.

The courtship started with mutual interests that included exploring the outdoors as well as a curiosity for life in general. We found ourselves having fun training for sports, such as triathlons, spending time hiking and biking, as well as discussing all matters of life. The training allowed us to understand one another further, no doubt contributing to the strong foundation that we have as a family unit, and planting the seed for our love to grow. Marriage, as well as hopes to start a family followed shortly thereafter.

Prior to our courtship, we both had independently thought about adoption as a beautiful opportunity to parent. Given that desire, we are very excited to explore this opportunity today. We have a close community of family and friends, including grandma and grandpa, who can’t wait to share their love and spoil the newest member to our family.

We have a variety of diverse interests and make an effort to continuously explore new experiences.

We love nature and enjoy outdoor activities, such as running, cycling, swimming, rollerblading, hiking, rock-climbing and skiing. We love spending time in the park for walks and playtime with Roni. You will also find us enjoying hockey or football sporting events or exploring live arts, such as theater and opera.

We appreciate spending time at home, cooking and enjoying quality time with our loved ones. We have a passion for movies, including action movies of all sorts, Disney movies and cartoons.

We truly enjoy spending time with children at our friends places or in our neighborhood, who love playing with Roni in the park.

OUR HOME

We love living in New York City!

We love our home which not only is filled with sunlight, but is spacious, has outdoor space, and is situated right across the street from one of the largest and most beautiful parks. 

We enjoy the park every season throughout the year, and find it hard pressed to pick a favorite one! We love spending as much time as possible in the park together with our dog Roni, who loves her walks rain or shine. We are fortunate to live near multiple playgrounds in a ¼ mile radius which are ideal for children of all ages. There is plenty of cultural offerings in our neighborhood such as churches, museums, or the best theaters, which we make an effort to visit regularly. There are a number of additional outdoor adventures in close driving distance from our home such as beautiful beaches that we love to visit for playing and swimming, as well as wonderful national parks that offer spectacular nature and scenery ideal for a picnic or a hike. Our neighborhood offers one of the best school districts in the state, and there is an elementary school right down the block.
