The face of the moon was in shadow
Almost before we knew it, we had left the ground. All their equipment and instruments are alive.Mist enveloped the ship three hours out from port. The spectacle before us was indeed sublime.A red flair silhouetted the jagged edge of a wing.
If you have already found your surrogate (a friend or family member), this package is for you. We provide the essential framework, including full legal and medical coordination, financial management, and journey support to ensure your journey is secure, seamless, and joyous for everyone.
We connect you with top-tier, independent attorneys specializing in reproductive law to draft and finalize your Gestational Carrier Agreement (GCA) and establish parentage, ensuring you are protected.
We manage the complex logistics and communications with your IVF clinic and the surrogate's medical team, from coordinating medical screenings and medication cycles to the embryo transfer and pregnancy check-ups.
Full transparency on all costs. We manage all journey funds through an independent, bonded escrow account, handling all payments and reimbursements to your surrogate on your behalf.
You will have a single, dedicated case manager as your guide for the entire journey. We provide proactive emotional and logistical support for both you and your surrogate to ensure a smooth, positive experience.
We coordinate with the hospital, you, and your surrogate to create a clear birth plan. Our support continues after you welcome your baby to ensure the final legal steps are completed and your new family is off to a great start.
Want to save on full agency fees by finding your own surrogate but want expert tools, coaching, and safety nets to ensure you are looking in the right places? We equip you to find a match effectively, then we verify that match. Think of this as "recruitment coaching" followed by full management.
Everything included in our Sapling Package plus much more.
Guidance on where to post, how to write your "Dear Birth Mother/Surrogate" profile, and how to navigate social media matching groups safely.
You bring us the leads; we do the initial pre-screening. We vet potential candidates before you get emotionally invested to ensure they meet basic clinic guidelines (BMI, age, pregnancy history).

We review the candidate's insurance policy and medical records prior to full onboarding.
This is our all-inclusive package, designed to manage every detail from start to finish. We are your dedicated partner, allowing you to focus on the joy of the journey. This package includes:
