Make Your Dreams of
Parenthood A Reality

Welcome Intended Parents

Congratulations on taking one of the first steps in pursuing your dream of parenthood!

Surrogacy has made it possible for multitudes of deserving people worldwide to become parents and is a meaningful and beautiful family-building experience. While surrogacy can be a long, complex and emotional journey to parenthood, the moment you hold your baby for the first time is so overwhelming and incredible, it’s hard to put into words! Our Founder and CEO, Staci Swiderski, founded this agency after her own journey to parenthood through surrogacy, with a dream to alleviate all pressures involved for other intended parents. Almost two decades later, we still follow those same core values in leading with compassion, transparency, and ethics. As many of us are former intended parents ourselves, we are uniquely qualified to share this journey with you.

Starting Your Journey

Whether you are just starting on the journey to building your family, or you’re exploring surrogacy after infertility challenges, we’re committed to supporting you at each step, alleviating the pressures you face while sharing our expertise and passion until you have your baby in your arms.

Selecting an Agency

We recommend selecting an agency as the first step on your journey to have the support and guidance from the very beginning in selecting a fertility clinic that meets your needs, a reproductive attorney, or an egg donor (if one is required). Another reason is to allow you to work on other steps in the process while waiting to be matched.

Surrogacy for Gay Parents

Gestational Surrogacy is a popular option for gay Intended Parents who wish to be biologically related to their child/ren and is a beautiful way to build your family.
