Why you Apply To Be a Surrogate

Becoming a surrogate mother in California or any state is a selfless act of kindness. Most likely you found our page because you want to work with one of the best surrogacy agency in Northern California!

The main reason you are searching for how to become surrogate is to help a family who is in need who wants to complete their family. These families have most likely struggled with infertility for many years at a time, sometimes over 10 years when they come to our agency.

With so many surrogacy agencies, why choose our agency? It seems every surrogate agency has a different compensation plan, and a different track to become a surrogate. Some require you to be a certain height and weight, while others require you to be Covid Vaccinated. Some surrogate agencies require you to reside in California or you won’t get paid the most. Not our agency.

Surrogate Mothers Find Local Parents

One of the defining factors of whether you will want to become a surrogate is whether or not you have intended parents who are located near you. Maybe you value a close relationship, maybe you value the fact that intended parents could physically attend your doctor’s appointments.

We value California residents being matched with California surrogates. This means that if you are a surrogate mother located in California, your intended family will most likely be using a fertility clinic in California.

This will mean that your appointments are just a few hours drive away, or even 15 minutes!

We match surrogate mothers no matter what state they reside in, but typically hope to find everyone a local match.

This means if you are applying to be a surrogate on the East coast, we hope to match you with local intended parents who live on the east coast.
