Redefining Support for Intended Parents

At Surrogacy Is we know deciding to pursue a surrogacy journey is a big decision and it can often feel overwhelming and uncertain. Imagining ourselves in your shoes is what drives us in our commitment to make sure we’re doing what’s right to take care of you. To us, that means offering comprehensive IP (intended parent) perks that just make sense. See first-hand how much heart we put into every journey!

What You Can Expect Working With Us:

No Deposit Until Match

No Deposit Until Match

We don’t believe in up-front costs for intended parents. In our eyes, your surrogate match is the essential first step in starting your journey with us and we’ll never ask you to pay anything until we’ve found her—and even then we break our deposit into two installments. (The second installment is after she is medically cleared).

There can be a lot of uncertainty in surrogacy, so we want to make things as easy and affordable for you to make sure you’re with the right surrogate to move forward with.

90 Day Match Guarantee

90-Day Match Guarantee

90 Day Match Guarantee

At Surrogacy Is, it pains us to hear how long IPs sit on wait lists wishing for the chance to start their journey. We made a vow as an agency to never feed hopeful parents false promises and to do whatever we can to start them on their journey to parenthood faster. That’s why we’ll never have a waitlist.

Since starting our surrogacy advocacy support group, we’ve talked to and educated 80+ potential surrogates on average every month. Because of this sheer value of new passionate surrogates, we’re confident we can find your perfect match in 90 days—or less. In fact, our match time is usually less than 21 days for intended parents (Seriously!)

Thorough Screening of Surrogates

Thorough Screening of Surrogates

By the time you see a surrogate’s profile, she’s been thoroughly vetted through our pre-screening process.

This includes…

  • A full profile review
  • Collection of medical records
  • OB clearance
  • Virtual home visit
  • Insurance review with ART Risk
  • Criminal backgrounds
  • Psychological clearance.
Low Case Loads Per Journey Coordinator

Low Case Loads for Every Journey Coordinator

Low Case Loads Per Journey Coordinator

We’ve worked hard to build a team that puts their hearts into every journey. That’s why we have specific teams for every stage and limit each Journey Coordinator to 25 cases. This allows our team to be fully equipped to give every family the time and attention they deserve, including 24-hour support for whenever a question or concern comes up.

IVF Concierge for Your Surrogate

IVF Concierge for your Surrogate

We know IVF clinics are extremely busy. We offer additional support to every surrogate through our IVF concierge, which includes teaching your surrogate how to take her medicine from our RN team and community of experienced surrogates. With the whole Surrogacy Is team on your side, you’ll never have to worry about whether your surrogate is taking her medication correctly.

Mental Health Support

Mental Health Support for BOTH IPs and Surrogate

Mental Health Support

Surrogacy can be an emotional process. If both sides have the opportunity to discuss their emotions with a professional psychologist, it creates a solid foundation for a beautiful, less stressful journey and relationship. We’ve partnered with a mental health specialist who’s a Dad through surrogacy himself, so he can relate and offer first-hand advice throughout the process.

Birth Order Help

Birth Order Help

It’s our goal once your baby is born that you can fully bask in the new joy of parenthood. That’s why we’ll work closely with the hospital so they know about the surrogacy arrangement and the birth clerk has all the necessary legal paperwork in place before you and your surrogate even walk through the door.

Birth Order Help
Postpartum Assistance

Postpartum Assistance

Postpartum Assistance

Even after your baby is born, our support doesn’t end. We’ll be here to help with any postpartum assistance you may need. If you need help setting up lodging in your surrogate’s city, figuring out arrangements to travel back home with your newborn, or even advice on how to bond with your new little one, we’ll be there.

Your Dream of Becoming a Parent is Closer Than You Think!

At Surrogacy Is our intended parent timeline makes parenthood more attainable. See the steps you can expect to complete on your journey.

Surrogacy Timeline

For Intended Parents

Meet the Team

Meet the Team

To get started, you’ll meet with our IP Relations Manager to discuss all your hopes for a surrogacy journey and how our agency can help. If you decide you want to work with us, we’ll immediately start prepping you for the next step.

Profile Creation

Profile Creation

Our IP Relations Manager will meet with you again to share her best tips on creating a thoughtful profile that shows your family’s unique personality so we can later share it with our pre-screened surrogates.

Matching

Matching

Next, you’ll work with our Matching Coordinator to find your perfect surrogate match. As soon as she gets your profile she diligently looks through all our surrogate profiles to find the most compatible match based on each side’s preferences. Usually, she will have a profile for you to review within 24 hours. Before a match call is even set up, we allow the IPs to review a surrogate’s profile first, if they like her then we share their profile with the surrogate. If the surrogate agrees that she likes the IPs too, we send her medical records to be reviewed by the IP’s fertility clinic. We do this just in case they see anything that would prevent moving forward with her. This saves time and potential heartbreak later. If the clinic says the surrogate meets their specific protocol, we set up a match call over Zoom. After the call, each side gets to decide if they want to move forward. If all agree, a match is made—and that’s when we ask you to pay the first installment or your agency fee.

Medical Screening

In-Person Medical Screening

Once your match is official, you’ll be introduced to your Journey Coordinator and she will work with your surrogate and IVF clinic to schedule her medical screening. Your reproductive endocrinologist will perform several tests to evaluate your surrogate’s reproductive health. This is sometimes the perfect time for a surrogate and intended parents to meet for the first time in person! After she passes her medical screening at the clinic, you’ll pay the rest of your agency fee.

Legal

Legal

Our team will help with recommendations for separate representation for both you and your surrogate to navigate one of the most important aspects of your surrogacy journey—the legal contract! The legal professionals we turn to all have 5+ years of experience in surrogacy law and have drafted several surrogacy contracts. During the legal process, our team will help maintain a happy relationship between you and your surrogate by acting as the liaison to help facilitate communication about legal matters.

Insurance

Additional Insurance Set-Up (If Needed)

When your surrogate is screened with us our team will have her current insurance policy (if she has one) reviewed with ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) Risk insurance professionals. When you review her profile you’ll know what her insurance situation looks like and if she will be needing additional coverage. If there is a need for additional coverage, ART Risk will help compare options, costs, and exclusions. You will need to have the insurance plan set up and funded in your trust account before your surrogate starts her IVF medications.

Escrow

Fully Funding Your Escrow

After matching, our team will help you set up your escrow account with a trusted third-party escrow company, but after your legal contracts are finalized, we ask that you fully fund your account for your whole journey. Having your account fully funded (with some buffer for just-in-case instances) means we’ll never have to come back and ask you for additional money throughout your journey. Throughout your journey, we’ll manage all the reimbursement requests while keeping you in the loop at all times—so you can avoid the awkwardness of discussing finances with your surrogate.

Med Calendar

IVF Med Calendar

Your surrogate will start taking her IVF medication to prep for the big transfer day. Our team offers 1:1 IVF guidance to make sure she understands her med calendar, knows exactly how to take all her medication and how to store it, plus we’ll share our seasoned tricks to make taking shots easier and less scary for her.

Transfer

You’re one big step closer to meeting your baby! We’ll help make this emotionally charged day easier by coordinating the lodging and travel arrangements for your surrogate. We’ll also be there to give guidance and support to both you and your surrogate—while sending all the sticky, positive vibes from our whole Surrogacy Is team.

Pregnancy

Pregnancy—Providing Support for Both IPs & Surrogate

To ensure the best care, we’ll help you find the right healthcare professionals with surrogacy experience. We’ll actively help coordinate appointments and facilitate communication between both parties so the bond can continue to grow. Besides medical support, we also provide ongoing emotional support for both sides from caring mental health professionals.

Delivery

OH-MY-GOSH…the big day is here!

We can also help you with finding a place to stay in your surrogate’s city.

Parenthood

Your new baby is here! As you settle into life as parents, we’ll continue to be that friend who is here and willing to help with anything and everything you might need. Do you need help organizing a plan to get back home with your new baby? Or do you need to figure out how to ship breastmilk? Maybe you even need some tips on doing something special for your surrogate. Whatever it is, we want you to ask us so we can take whatever off your plate so you focus more time on snuggling and loving on your new baby.

Common Questions—Answered

We know 90 days sounds unbelievable, especially since some agencies are putting intended parents on a 2-year waitlist, but we don’t make promises we can’t keep… and finding you a surrogate in 90 days or less is our promise to you.

The surrogacy support platform we’ve created means hundreds new women reach out to us every month to learn about surrogacy. Our education and support are unmatched so surrogates are eager to work with us. That means we’re confident we have the perfect surrogate waiting to meet you!

OH, we put so much time and effort into matching. We aren’t one of those agencies who will present you with a profile just so we can cross you off our list. We look at personalities and preferences to find profiles that align with one another on both sides. The match is what makes or breaks a whole journey, so you can trust that we’ll take this process very seriously.

We believe that surrogates should be compensated and treated fairly—it’s why we based our whole surrogacy advocacy group on this. We worked hard to develop our packages with both the surrogate and the intended parents in mind. We believe our packages not only attract potential surrogates but also helps your surrogate feel more cared for and more appreciated throughout her journey. This enhances the relationship between both of you and makes the whole process easier and more relaxed. Helping you take care of your surrogate is an extension of how we’re taking care of you and your future baby.

It’s true, compared to a lot of agencies ours is still in our beginning years (Our first agency baby was born in 2024 🎉) But when it comes to surrogacy, our team is anything but new to the game. Our founders, Casey and Sunshine, have been in the surrogacy industry for a combined 24 years, and together they have carried 6 surrogate babies. Through their work and experience, they’ve learned the ins and outs of several agencies in the industry and built a Surrogacy Is team of passionate surrogates and industry professionals wanting to make a difference.

Backed by this expertise and drive, our team has truly created an agency different from anything out there. We put our heart and soul into going above and beyond with our support for our intended parents and surrogates. This is not the norm in the industry, but we believe it should be!

If you want to chat with someone who’s been in your shoes before, we have multiple sets of intended parents who have been so happy with their experience working with us that they’ve agreed to chat with any new IPs considering our agency. If you’d like to connect with them, let our IP Relations Manager know when you connect with her!

Choosing to become a parent through surrogacy can be a bit of a rollercoaster, with lots of moving parts like finding the right surrogate, dealing with legal stuff, figuring out costs, building relationships, and ironing out any kinks that pop up. The right agency, like Surrogacy Is, can be your guide, making the whole ride smoother and less stressful.

Are we the real deal?

Check out more stories on Insta!

It’s simple… we’re different than any other agency. 

And it’s because of that difference, that we have some of the highest surrogate-to-intended parent ratios in the industry.

So, to start… your match times are significantly shorter working with us. 

Maybe matching in 90-days instead of sitting on a waitlist for a year or more might be enough of a reason to choose us, but there’s more than that.

We’ve created a system where our surrogate candidates are more informed, more supported and more excited about their journey. And that creates a smoother journey overall for everyone. 

It’s important to know that, while the primary focus in a surrogacy journey is typically you and your goal to complete your family, it’s important to know that this is your surrogate’s journey as well. Knowing that, we can help your journey become the best journey it can possibly be, again, for everyone.

Surrogacy is generally categorized into two types: gestational surrogacy and traditional surrogacy. In gestational surrogacy, embryos are created by the intended parents via in vitro fertilization and then implanted in a surrogate, who is often referred to as a gestational carrier. This surrogate carries the child or children to term, yet shares no genetic ties with them. This form of surrogacy constitutes the majority of surrogacy agreements today.

On the other hand, traditional surrogacy involves the surrogate becoming pregnant through artificial insemination, thus establishing a genetic link with the child or children she carries for the intended parents. Please note, at Surrogacy Is, we exclusively offer gestational surrogacy services.

Absolutely! At Surrogacy Is, we fully support and work with all kinds of aspiring parents. Whether you are a single individual or a couple, irrespective of sexual orientation, we are here to assist you in your surrogacy journey. Being single does not exclude you from our services; we believe everyone who wishes to become a parent should have the opportunity to do so.
The overall duration of the surrogacy process can vary and largely depends on a range of factors. As a general guideline, intended parents should anticipate about a year and a half from when they engage with our agency until they welcome their child. However, this timeline can be expedited or extended depending on the legal complexities involved and the specifics of the in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. For instance, if you already have embryos prepared, the process is likely to be quicker.
Surrogacy Is is open to everyone. We provide support to all individuals and couples, no matter what your background or family setup is. If you’re looking to start your journey to parenthood, we’re here to assist.
Oh my gosh, yes! We’ve had the pleasure of assisting many LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples on their journey to becoming parents. We collaborate with legal experts who really know their stuff when it comes to surrogacy law for the LGBTQIA+ community.
Does Surrogacy Is work with heterosexual couples? Absolutely! We’re here for everyone. That includes individuals and couples of all types, including, of course, heterosexual couples. At Surrogacy Is, we believe everyone who wants to start a family should get the help they need.
Choosing to become a parent through surrogacy can be a bit of a rollercoaster, with lots of moving parts like finding the right surrogate, dealing with legal stuff, figuring out costs, building relationships, and ironing out any kinks that pop up. The right agency, like Surrogacy Is, can be your guide, making the whole ride smoother and less stressful.
Every surrogate has to pass our screening process before we match them with any aspiring parents. Additionally, our surrogates go through 2 screening process, initially with our surrogate advocates, then if they choose our agency, another full screening process. Once they get introduced to our intake team, we have a chat about their health and previous pregnancies. Then, we take a look at their medical records to make sure their past pregnancies went smoothly. Lastly, we do a background check.
Before we match you with a surrogate, we’ll talk about what you want in terms of how many embryos to transfer and your thoughts on selective reduction. That way, we make sure your surrogate is on the same page with you about these things, even in cases where the pregnancy results in twins.
Absolutely! At Surrogacy Is, we’re all about being open, honest, and staying connected. We think it’s great to build strong relationships that can last. After all, we’re all on the same team in this journey! That being said, the type of relationship you want will be something you both decide, likely prior to your match. Remember, you and your surrogate are designing your journeys to meet what both of you need. It’s up to you both to determine what you’d both like to get out of this journey, other than the obvious bundle of joy at the end!
Starting your journey with surrogacy starts off with filling our our Intended Parent form at https://surrogacy.is/intended-parent-quiz. Once that’s complete, a Intended Parent coordinator will connect for a Q&A call, and general consult. It’s a chance for you to tell us your story and why you’re looking at surrogacy to expand your family. We’ll go over how everything works here at Surrogacy Is, what we offer, and answer any questions you might have.

When surrogates are asked if they would do it again, most of them are quick to say an absolute YES! 💯

Some may even joke that surrogacy is addicting—but the truth is the feeling you get from surrogacy is hard to recreate, and that’s why many surrogates come back to it again or are passionate about being a part of the surrogacy community. It’s indescribable and a life-changing experience for everyone involved.

As a mom, it’s so easy to wish for the next thing. You think, “Man, I can’t wait for my little one to start walking …. or start school….or start driving.” (It never goes away no matter how young or how old your kids are, BTW).

It’s great to look forward to the future but don’t let it stop you from appreciating the now.

Savor those sweet embraces while carrying your little one around. Enjoy the extra time with them before you have to share their attention with homework and friends. Relish in the moments you get to hear their chatter while chauffeuring them around. Those moments will be gone before you know it. And you’ll find yourself wishing for them back.

The future will be beautiful… but now is beautiful, too. So hang in there, mama, and squeeze in these moments while you can. 🫂

Surrogates give their IPs the ultimate gift: a new baby to love for a lifetime. 🤗

Some IPs are so thankful they want to show their appreciation to their surrogate outside of her compensation. This could look like sending sweet gifts to her children or treating her to her current cravings. 😋

While gifts are never expected, a kind gesture from IPs can make a surrogate feel especially cared for and can help form a sweet bond between each side.

📣 Did you ever receive a gift from your IPs that you loved?

"How can you feel a baby move around inside of you and not get attached?”

Like Andrea, a lot of surrogates just know they can do it. Before even committing to surrogacy, they’ve shifted their mindset to know this baby isn’t theirs and that they are doing something incredible for someone else.

One of the biggest misconceptions in surrogacy is that a surrogate will get attached to the baby—and for the majority of surrogates, that is just not the case.

📣 What other misconceptions did you have to clear up once you told your friends and family you were going to be a surrogate?
