Hello! We’re Viberlie & Joel from San Jose, California. From our hearts with love, we would like to thank you for considering us. We are a fun-loving, active couple who loves outdoor adventures and traveling. We also love staying home doing home projects, nurturing succulents, working in our garden, and cooking together. We absolutely can’t wait to add a child to our lives!

We are excited to share that same love with a child. We cannot wait to shower a child with affection and care. We know that making this decision is not an easy one for you, and we thank you for taking the time to read our profile.

We met in 2007 through a mutual friend. We enjoyed each other’s company and became good friends. We remained friends until 2010, when we knew there was something more. We have not been apart ever since! We tied the knot in 2019. Building our family was always part of our dreams, and we learned along the way that this would not be possible to do naturally. We know that adoption is the right path for us, and we embrace it with open arms.

They say opposites attract and that’s true for us! Viberlie loves staying at home, taking care of our home and our garden of succulents. Joel loves to go outside and swim, bike, and run. We combine what we both love, and appreciate each other’s interests. And we will do the same as our family grows.

I love to travel and have great appreciation for big lands full of nature.

If given the chance, I would love to live on a farm where I could harvest my own garden and raise chickens and cows.

I am a proud Laboratory Technician. At work, I am one of the first responders.

I come from a big family, and I grew up seeing my parents, my siblings, and my extended family support and guide each other through both good and tough times. I am now included in making family decisions, and I can’t wait for our future child to be surrounded by the same love and support.

“Viberlie is the woman Iadmirethe most when it comes to her love for her family.” – Joel

I love being physically active. I like to challenge myself by breaking my own personal bests in triathlons and marathons.

I have always been involved in customer relations as part of my work. I provide technical support in the field of Information Technology.

I am the “phone a friend/brother” at home. I love that family and friends know that they can always count on me, whether they need words of encouragement or just a good laugh. I can’t wait to be at your child’s side as a father.

“Joel’s dedication and discipline in life make him the man he is today.” – Viberlie

We are San Jose, California locals. Whenever we have free time, we are out in the park for a good walk or run. Exploring our local parks is a great way for us to have a healthy chat about our plans for the future. We currently live close to parks and good schools. If we are not outdoors, Viberlie is with her succulents in our small garden and Joel is in the garage for a cycling session. We can’t wait to share our home with a child!

We are lucky to have a loving and supportive community of friends and family. Viberlie was born in Pangasinan, a town in Philippines. Spent most of her teens here in America, when the family migrated in 1999. Viberlie comes from a big family. Being the 8th sibling, Viberlie got the chance to be the great auntie Viber. She has taken care of her nieces and nephews since they were little. Viberlie is eager to share her nurturing role with her future child.

Joel grew up in Manila, Philippines. He received a traveling work opportunity in 2000. He’s worked in China, Thailand, Singapore, and many places here in the US (Oregon, Arizona, Texas, and California). Joel comes from a small family. His parents passed away awhile ago and Joel took on many adult responsibilities at a young age. This experience has helped prepare Joel to become a father. Even though his siblings live far away, they are excited for Joel to become a father. They phone at least weekly. They are quite eager to be grandparents as this will be the first family grandchild.

Thank you again. We know this is not easy and we are very grateful that you are considering us to be part of your child’s life. Our prayers are with you always.

We promise to give your child unconditional love from day one. We will provide your child the best education to support your child’s dream. We promise to teach them the importance of respect and kindness. No matter what, your child will be welcome in our hearts.
