Aylin is a Creative and Sociable Freshman Searching for a Loving Family

Aylin is a girl with a great sense of humor. Those who meet her immediately note her big smile, and it is clear that she takes pride in her appearance. Aylin enjoys working on craft projects, being outside in the community, movies, dance and choir. 

Aylin's Social Development

Aylin is now in her freshman year of high school and enjoys her classes. She easily makes friends and enjoys spending time with her peers. In the past, Aylin needed some support with peer engagement and managing the routine and structure of a school day.  However, she has been able to utilize her coping skills to address and manage any new situations. 

Best Family Match

Legally freed for adoption, Aylin is very much looking forward to becoming part of a loving family. Her social worker feels that she will do best in a family with a mom and dad, two mothers or a single mother. Aylin will do well as an only child or with other children in the home. She has mentioned liking little kids. A family for Aylin must support her relationship with her younger sister who resides in Worcester County. Aylin also visits with her biological mother twice a year, as specified in an open adoption agreement.
