George and Carolina
Hi! We are Carolina & George from Maryland (Near Washington, DC). We are so excited about creating a loving home for a little one through adoption. We got married 20 years ago and we are best friends. Our struggle with infertility lead us to the beautiful path of adoption… and hopefully to you!

CAROLINA
& GEORGE
from MARYLAND (NEAR WASHINGTON, DC)
We are so excited about creating a loving home for a little one through adoption.
We got married 20 years ago and we are best friends. Our struggle with infertility lead us to the beautiful path of adoption… and hopefully to you!
We admire and respect your courage and want to express our sincere gratitude for considering us as potential adoptive parents. We have been dreaming about becoming parents for a while and we would be truly blessed to have the opportunity to raise your child.
We promise to provide your child with a happy and stable home, filled with unconditional love, laughter, fun and endless opportunities for growth. We will raise them with strong family and personal values. Our child will be surrounded by family and friends who will love and support them throughout their life.
We would like for your child to learn about their birth mom and family and keep a relationship. We are Latino and heritage is very important to us. We promise we will do our best to incorporate the traditions of their birth family into our own in a meaningful way.

Story
We met 25 years ago, when we were in medical school. It was clear we had many things in common, including our love for science, music, and art. It was love at first sight.
We come from large families and we like to celebrate every milestone together. We built a lot of beautiful memories that we will forever treasure.
We were raised in Colombia and moved to Florida to pursue our careers. We did not know anyone, but we met friends, that soon became our chosen family. Six years ago we had the opportunity to move to the DC area, so we drove with our 3 cats to start our new life chapter.
OUR CAREERS
We’re both physician scientists and work studying the brain and infectious diseases. We love science and hope to teach this love to our child. We both work from home. On the weekends, we love to walk around the neighborhood, go to bookstores, visit friends and go to museums or arts exhibits. This area is very rich in culture and nature, and we cannot wait to share it with our little one. We have a lot of parks and all-year-round activities for all ages including summer concerts, the zoo, activities in the local library and many more things to do!

GEORGE

George has the biggest heart and is a very sensitive person. He is a great listener and likes to help his friends and family. He loves our cats, and he’s the CCO, Chief Cuddler Officer.
I HAVE NO DOUBT GEORGE WILL BE A GREAT DAD. I AM SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE HIM AS MY GREATEST SUPPORTER.
A PLACE
Called
HOME
We live in the Washington DC suburbs. Although we are in an urban area, we are surrounded by trees, creeks and some lakes. There are a few nature trails in our neighborhood and parks. Our favorite seasons are Spring and Fall because of the explosion of colors. We also like the winter, which is mild in this area, so you can still do a lot of activities. The beach and the mountains are also a few hours away.
Our neighborhood is very diverse and is in a great school district. We have a lot of families with children and a lot of dogs. Our cats enjoy people and dog watching from their window perch. Overall, is a very peaceful place with little traffic. At home, our favorite place is the basement because it is where Caro works on her arts and crafts and George on his Lego projects.
- A LITTLE ABOUT -
OUR
CATS
Our small family has three cats called Pita, Cookie and Lulu.
They are a very important part of our lives.
They love playing and making us laugh. They are very affectionate and love to be close. Pita is very “chatty”. Cookie is very chill and loves people. Lulu loves to play and goes to George’s desk and “asks” him to play.
HOBBIES
Carolina:
I love journaling and besides writing, I use it to create collages with stickers, stamps, paper and washi tape. I also like to decorate and make cards for family and friends on their birthdays, Christmas and Valentine’s Day.
George:
I love playing the piano, reading and learning new things. One of my favorite hobbies since I was a child is building blocks. I’m currently working on a Formula 1 car that has a lot of pieces. I love the challenge to create and put things together.
