Hello! We are Molly and Oliver . We are adoptive parents Finn and are very excited to be adopting again. We appreciate you taking time to learn more about us and considering us as an adoptive family.
We incorporate laughter into each day. We are fun, caring, energetic and aim to be kind, hard-working and generous.
Molly has a unique ability to strike up thoughtful conversations with friends and family and to teach Finn through crafts, sensory play, imagination and reading lots of books. She loves music, spending time outside, and being with the people she loves.
Oliver, who is bilingual, speaks German to Finn and spends his time playfully chasing him around the house, swimming with him at the pool, and running around the playground. He loves dragon boating, traveling, and cooking.
Finn is our almost 3 year old who we adopted from birth. He brings so much joy and energy to our life. He loves anything that has to do with a ball, climbing, and pushing his cars and trucks through the dirt.
Thank you for considering us for this very big decision ahead of you. We’re grateful for the courage and love you’re already showing your child.
Truly yours,
Molly, Oliver and Finn

Expectant mothers who choose to make an adoption plan may qualify for some level of financial assistance during their pregnancy. However, each person's situation and specific needs are different. Your adoption social worker can help you determine what level of assistance you qualify for and deserve. Many expectant mothers qualify for financial assistance to cover basic pregnancy and living expenses, including but not limited to - transportation reimbursement, utility assistance for phone, water, and electricity/gas, maternity clothing and supplements, etc.
It won't cost you anything. If you choose to place your baby for adoption, all of your medical and legal fees will be covered and you may be eligible for financial assistance with other pregnancy-related expenses.
Yes. Even if you don’t know the identity of the birth father, you can still choose to make an adoption plan. However, every adoption situation is different. The adoption social worker you’re assigned to will get to know you and your story first, and then guide you through the process accordingly.
You can make an adoption plan at any point in your pregnancy, even after the baby has been born. But, it's important to start the process as early in your pregnancy as possible. Connecting with those resources will allow you to gain access to important medical services, including prenatal care, to help ensure a healthy pregnancy.
One aspect of your adoption plan is the "Hospital Plan" an outline of how you'd like your hospital stay and delivery to go. You can craft this on your own or with the help of your adoption social worker. But everything is up to you. You’ll be able to choose who comes to the hospital with you, who is in the room with you during delivery, and how much time you’d like to spend with the baby before signing the final papers.
As part of your adoption plan, you'll determine whether or not you’d like to have an open or closed adoption or something in between. Open adoptions may include phone calls, messaging (via social media, email, or text), and/or periodic visits each year. Closed adoptions may include no contact at all or annual updates provided to the birth parent(s) by the adoptive family. Each post-adoption relationship is different and can vary based on what an expectant mother chooses in her adoption plan.
