Hello! We are Matt and Ciara (it sounds like "Kira"). We have always wanted the opportunity to give a child an unconditional, loving home. We have so much love to give and have such a heart for being good parents. We want to share our lives with our child, showing the beauty of the world but also to protect and to guide them through anything, providing stability and comfort along the way.
We cannot wait to welcome a child into our lives, and create wonderful memories both at home, as well with traveling, education and experiences. Things like time with family or getting into sports are things we’d love to share as parents! We cannot wait to be a beacon of support and comfort for our child, for their whole lives. We will provide them with safety, comfort, education, experiences, laughter, and family.
We’d love to talk or answer any of your questions. To learn more about us, please call or text Lifetime at 1.800.923.6784.

About Our Home
We live in New Jersey in a beautiful, four-bedroom Colonial home on an acre of land. It's a nice town, with highly rated schools and many activities for families. Our area is popular for farm visits, especially during the fall, so it's remote, but still not far from New York City.
In Closing
Thank you for considering us as you decide what you want for you and your child. We'd be honored to become your child's adoptive family and would love to learn more about you both. Raising a child together has been a dream of ours and we're excited to imagine where this path to adoption will lead us. If you'd like to learn more about us, or set up a call or video chat, just ask Lifetime! We would love to hear from you.
