“We’ve always dreamed of being parents and now this dream has not only come true, but is also the greatest source of joy in our lives. Our children are such wonderful, amazing, and unique little humans each with their own individual talents, personalities, and of course, needs. From spending quality time with them at home as a family to going on vacation or having local DC adventures, life is so full of joy and we are so grateful.”

"Our son Noah just turned one year old, and we can't overstate the joy that he brings to the world and to our family. We are grateful for Barker's support with everything from compliance processes to emotional support. Barker's staff ensured that the path of our adoption journey was clear and easy to navigate, and we are so grateful for their help!"

When we started our adoption journey, Barker stood out from other agencies with their decades long history and focus on ethics and integrity throughout the adoption process.

From the 5pm call on a Monday until Patrick was placed with us that Friday - it was a bit of a whirlwind to get ready to bring him home. He has changed our lives. Nothing has brought us more joy than seeing all of the "firsts" like his first steps, first trip to Disney World, and the first "I love you."

Now, at 3 and a half, Patrick's personality is starting to shine through - his laugh is infectious, he loves to play with Legos, and can't spend enough time playing outside
