Nia


Meet Nia. She is the wife and step-mom of the family. She adores children and is thrilled at the idea of becoming a mom to a tiny person through adoption!!
Nia's whole world revolves around kids. Whether taking care of her two adorable step-sons, or teaching her class of fantastic special-needs kindergarten students, she is happiest when surrounded by children.
Matt had two young boys when he met Nia and he knew that he couldn't bring home anyone but the "one" to meet Maris and Seth. He has always taken great joy in seeing how well the kids and Nia get along, he would tell you that Nia is a natural mother, a strong and independent woman, and a patient and loving friend.
Nia enjoys singing along while Maris plays his guitar and she and Seth have a family tradition of baking brownies together every week. Although the boys were already 7 and 11 when she came into their lives, she can't remember a time when she wasn't with them and loves every moment she gets to spend with them. Some of her best moments in life have come from sharing her favorite places and things with the boys.
Nia loves to sing, cook and travel, and believes that all of these interests can be shared with the newest addition to our family. She is so excited to meet the baby, and the baby's first mom and family, and hopes very much to have a little one to love and cherish soon! She is already making little baby blankets and hats for the newest Ravenstahl :)
