Your Journey Home Begins with a Single Connection

A boutique approach to the world’s most significant journey.

Choosing to grow your family through surrogacy is an act of profound hope and courage. At Onne Life, we understand that this path is more than just a series of clinical steps—it is a life-changing relationship that requires a foundation of absolute trust, legal certainty, and unwavering support.


Rooted in the heart of Vermont, we bring the 'Gold Standard' of New England surrogacy law to families from across the globe. As a surrogate-led agency, we move beyond the automated approach of national firms. We focus on a boutique, high-touch experience where you are never just a file number. From our first consultation to the moment you hold your child, we are your dedicated partners, managing every legal, financial, and clinical detail so you can focus on what matters most: becoming a parent.


Whether you are just beginning to explore your options or are ready to take the next step, welcome to Onne Life.  We are honored to be part of your story.

Matches Made by Experience, Not Algorithms

Large agencies often use automated databases to "check boxes." We don’t. As a two-time surrogate, I hand-select matches based on shared values, communication styles, and journey expectations. We don’t just find you a carrier; we facilitate a partnership where both sides feel a genuine, enthusiastic "Yes!" before ever moving forward.

The Vermont Gold Standard

While we serve families nationwide, we are rooted in Vermont—one of the most surrogacy-friendly jurisdictions in the world. Our process is built around the Vermont Parentage Act (VPA), ensuring streamlined Pre-Birth Orders (PBOs) and ironclad legal security for all families, regardless of marital status or genetic connection. You get the world’s most secure legal framework, no matter where you live.

Radical Financial Transparency

Surrogacy shouldn't come with "sticker shock." Unlike agencies that hide their fees behind consultations, we provide clear, tiered program options designed to fit your specific needs—whether you need full-service coordination or you’re bringing your own surrogate. No hidden administrative "surprises," just honest cost-modeling from day one.

Surrogate-Led Advocacy

We aren't just clinical coordinators; we are advocates. Because I have been in the delivery room as a surrogate, I know exactly what your carrier needs to feel supported, safe, and motivated. A supported surrogate is the foundation of a healthy, low-stress journey for you. At Onne Life, you benefit from a perspective that "corporate" agencies simply don't have.

Why Parents Choose Onne Life?

National Legal Security. Boutique Personal Care. 

The Heart of a Surrogate.


Most surrogacy agencies fall into two categories: giant corporations where you are a "file number," or tiny boutiques that lack legal depth. Onne Life was built to be the best of both. We offer the professional infrastructure required to protect your family, delivered with the one-on-one attention only a fellow surrogate can provide.

Safety Without Compromise: 
Our 4-Pillar Screening

In surrogacy, "safety" isn't just a medical term—it’s the legal, physical, and emotional foundation of your future family. At Onne Life, we don't just "check boxes." We utilize a rigorous, multi-layered screening process to ensure that every surrogate in our program is medically capable, legally secure, and emotionally prepared for the journey ahead.

Comprehensive Medical & Reproductive Review

Before a surrogate is ever presented to you, her medical history undergoes a deep-dive audit.

  • Clinical Standards: We review 5–10 years of medical records, focusing on previous healthy, full-term pregnancies and uncomplicated deliveries.

  • Clinic Alignment: We ensure every candidate meets the strict ASRM (American Society for Reproductive Medicine) guidelines to maximize the chance of a successful transfer and a healthy pregnancy.

  • The "Vermont Gold Standard" Legal Vetting

    We eliminate legal ambiguity before the first contract is signed.

  • Clearance & Backgrounds: We conduct thorough criminal, financial, and background checks on every surrogate and any adult living in her household.

  • Jurisdictional Safety: We only work with surrogates living in "surrogacy-friendly" states where your parental rights are protected. By leveraging the Vermont Parentage Act (VPA) standards, we ensure a streamlined path to your Pre-Birth Order (PBO).

  • Psychological Readiness & Support 
    Mapping

    A successful journey requires more than physical health; it requires emotional resilience.

  • Professional Evaluation: Every surrogate undergoes psychological testing and an interview with a licensed mental health professional specializing in third-party reproduction.

  • Support System Audit: We vet the surrogate’s home environment and support network to ensure she has the stability and personal backup needed to focus entirely on her health and your baby.

  • The Founder’s "Surrogate-Eye" Review

    This is the Onne Life difference.

  • Lived Experience: After the clinical and legal checks are done, I personally interview every candidate. I look for the "intangibles"—reliability, communication style, and a genuine motivation for helping others.

  • The "Yes" Factor: I only admit surrogates into the program whom I would personally trust to carry for my own family. If I wouldn't match with them, I won't ask you to.

  • "I only admit surrogates into our program whom I would personally trust to carry for my own family."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q. What is the current wait time to match?

    At Onne Life, we prioritize Bond-Focused Matching over a "first-come, first-served" list. While many agencies have wait times of 12–18 months, our boutique approach focuses on active, intentional recruiting. Typically, intended parents can expect to be presented with potential matches within 4 to 8 months, depending on their specific criteria. We believe the right match is worth the wait to ensure a lifelong, positive connection.

    Q. How does being based in Vermont benefit me if I live elsewhere?

    Vermont is widely considered the "Gold Standard" for surrogacy law. By partnering with a Vermont-based agency, you are tapping into a legal framework that is incredibly secure, inclusive, and streamlined. We utilize Vermont’s progressive statutes—such as the ability to obtain Pre-Birth Orders regardless of your marital status or genetic connection—to set the highest possible benchmark for your journey, no matter where your surrogate resides.

    Q: Can we pursue surrogacy as an LGBTQ+ couple or single parent?

    Answer:Absolutely. In fact, it’s in our DNA. The name ONNE is an acronym of the first family I helped build as a surrogate: ON (the fathers), and NE (the babies I carried for them). My agency was founded on the success and beauty of a same-sex surrogacy journey. We don't just "support" LGBTQ+ and single parents; we were built to celebrate them. Because we are based in Vermont, we utilize one of the most inclusive legal frameworks in the country to ensure your rights as a parent are protected from day one, regardless of your marital status or sexual orientation.

    Q. How do you screen your surrogates?

    Our screening process is informed by my personal experience as a two-time surrogate and my professional background in family support and building. We go far beyond the standard medical and psychological checks. Every Onne Life surrogate undergoes a rigorous multi-point vetting process, including background checks, financial stability reviews, and deep-dive interviews to ensure they are physically, emotionally, and motivationally ready for this life-changing commitment. We only work with women I would trust with my own family.

    Q. What is the first step to get started?

    The journey begins with a complimentary Consultation. This is an informal, no-pressure conversation where we discuss your goals, answer your specific questions, and see if our boutique, high-touch approach is the right fit for your family. From there, we move into the intake phase and begin the search for your perfect match.  If you would like to learn more about the Onne Life process or have questions, book your consultation call below!
