Max & Stephane Duret-Cove

are adopting a child from United States of America

Oh hey there! Thanks so much for stopping by and checking us out. If you don’t already know us, we’re Max and Stephane and, at this time, we have officially become first-time dads to our beautiful daughter, Esmé Sofia!

So, while the path to our adoption has joyfully and successfully come to an end, we are now navigating all the new costs that come with being new parents to an infant. We’ve decided to keep this page open as a way to allow our friends, family, and any other kind folks out there to support our newly formed trio as we continue growing together. Any contribution to this fund means the world to us and makes it that much easier to provide for this amazing little girl we are so fortunate to call our daughter.

We are truly so grateful for your support and hope you know the lasting, incredible impact you’ll be making on us and the life of our sweet girl. Thank you once again and we look forward to sharing more updates as we press onward through Fatherhood!

    September 2, 2023

    We are soooo excited to share officially that we’ve been matched and our baby is set to arrive February 24, 2024! It’s been quite a journey getting to this point, but we are so incredibly grateful for the constant support of our friends and families every step of the way, as well as our amazing adoption consultants at RG Consulting and the staff at Open Arms Adoption Agency for being such wonderful guides for us as we’ve navigated this process together.

    More exciting updates to come! But we thank you all so much in advance for all your love and support as we march closer to Fatherhood!!

    We're Officially A Waiting Family!

    March 12, 2023

    We're so excited to share that we've become an official waiting family at Open Arms Adoption Network! This means that any pregnant person who is considering adoption within their network would get to see our profile and potentially choose us as their child's parents, which is a complete thrill ❤️ We connected with Open Arms this past November and almost immediately knew they would be a perfect match for us in helping us grow our family. Keep sending all the positive vibes our way as we continue this waiting game!
