Story of Adoption from France

As a brand and as a close-knit family too, we are guided by a special mission. We support сool parents who are not afraid to beсome the whole new universe for their kids. Especially if they met each other not since birth.

Baking cookies together with Noël Family is one of the most inspiring things we have ever experienced. Nicolas and Clotilde are raising nine kids. Three of them are adoptees with special needs.

Nicolas and Clotilde knew that in France there are a lot of kids with disabilities waiting for a family. They wanted to help these children, because all of them deserve to be loved. Marie, Frédo and Marie-Garance recognized their family in the first minutes of acquaintance. Frédo was two and a half y.о. He took his parents by the hand and told them "Let's go! You have come to get me".

These children break down stereotypes. Their singularities help them to discover the world in their own way, create and think outside the box. When their older brother Baudouin saw Marie for the first time, he fell in an infinite love for this little girl. He decided that she was beautiful and that she did not have Down's syndrome.

Nicolas and Clotilde's favorite memory is the moment when their older children asked them to adopt another kid. It is thanks to them that Frédo is a part of the family now. Children understood that love could do anything. That love could overcome difference. 

At the same time the reaction of relatives and friends became an unpleasant surprise. Some people were really cruel in their words and behavior. This made Noël Family suffer, but it also made them grow. Their unique children allow them to meet fantastic people full of light and joy. 

Advice from Noël Family:

“Live one day at a time. Without pressure, without useless objectives. Let yourself be guided by your children. The most important thing is to love them as they are and not as we would like them to be”.
