Have you ever thought about becoming a surrogate for someone and giving them the greatest gift anyone ever could? Do  you know what is involved in the process? Maybe you know of a couple already but don't know where to start. I can help put you in touch with the right people to explore your options both as intended parents or as someone that is interested in becoming a surrogate. This is an amazing gift but is not right for everyone. Get the information you need by messaging me.  Here is some information to get you started.

  Just what is Surrogacy? 

Well surrogacy  is a method of assisted reproduction where intended parents work with a gestational surrogate who will carry and care for their baby (ies) until birth.  A surrogate is often used by Intended parents  to start or grow their families when they can't do so on their own or chose not to. 

For full information on the details that follow please reach out to me and I will put you in contact with an amazing agency to help you along your journey. If you use the agency I work with you can receive 25% off all labor packages. 

Pricing for labor packages are the same for surrogacy except your care with me starts sooner than the normal time frame for a non surrogacy pregnancy.  For a surrogacy pregnancy I start working with you from the moment you get a positive test. 

I can also combine packages of fertility, birth and postpartum if wanted or any combination of the three. I strongly believe that having a doula is a great resource for every stage of pregnancy for both the intended couple and the surrogate. I am here to help you all which is why my services start early and are not limited to just the surrogate but  to everyone involved but my prices stay the same !  I can also work with any budget to make everyone comfortable and add or delete services to get where you need to be
