👋 HI, I'M STEFFANY AYE
I didn't plan to work in adoption. After grad school, the only job opening was in adoption. I said, "I don't know anything about adoption." They said, "You'll learn."
They were right.
I founded Adoption & Beyond in 1998, an adoption agency that actually answers your questions, explains the process, and walks you through every step. I spent over a decade creating genuine connections between birth and adoptive families. Then life threw me the most beautiful plot twist—we adopted our daughter, Shayla. My husband and I already had four kids, but when the call came about an 8-year-old girl who needed a home, we said yes.
That experience—both professional and personal—provided on-the-job training and taught me what truly matters. Adoption works when you have the right information and support, not just at placement but long after the "welcome home" balloons are gone.
Today, with 30+ years in the adoption profession, I walk beside families navigating this journey with transparency and education.
