"I'm so grateful they are the agency I went with."
I started my surrogacy journey not really knowing what to expect. SurrogateFirst set the bar pretty high and I am so grateful they are the agency I went with. Ashley Mareko made the entire process feel so much less intimidating than I had expected going into this as a first timer. She answered all my questions and no matter what I needed, she made sure my needs were met. Everything from my transfer day to delivery day and beyond have been celebrated and have made the process feel so special.

How do you find me a surrogacy match?
We take your profile, our current intended parents’ profiles and look for the best fit for both of you. We have years of experience matching surrogates and intended parents. You are a key part of this process; we will always have both the surrogate and intended parents approve the profiles. When both parties feel that there could be a possible match, we then set up a video meeting for you to get to know each other.
Will I have to pump/ breastfeed?
That is completely your choice. Some IP's may ask that you breastfeed their baby after birth. Surrogates are compensated at a rate of $200 a week for her efforts and time pumping. Intended parents will pay for supplies and shipping if need be.
Can I choose my own OB and hospital?
Yes, we work with you to find the right insurance plan and doctors.
Am I able to work out as a surrogate?
Yes, you can continue your healthy lifestyle and exercise as long as the doctor sees that doing so will harm neither you nor the baby.
Will I use my own eggs?
No, SurrogateFirst works with the intended parent’s embryos
