Types of Intended Parents We Help

At our surrogacy agency, we are proud to support and guide a diverse range of intended parents on their journey toward building a family. Surrogacy is a deeply personal, emotional, and transformative experience, and no two stories are ever the same. That’s why we offer compassionate, expert support tailored to the needs of each type of intended parent.

Below, we’ll explore the various types of intended parents we serve, each with their own unique paths, challenges, and hopes. Whether you're just beginning your journey or you're ready to match with a surrogate, our agency is here to walk with you every step of the way.

Heterosexual Intended Parents

Heterosexual couples often pursue surrogacy due to medical or fertility challenges, including conditions like uterine factor infertility, repeated pregnancy loss, or unexplained infertility. Some have gone through IVF cycles without success, while others may have been advised that pregnancy would be medically dangerous.

For many heterosexual intended parents, surrogacy represents hope after years of trying to conceive. Some have already been through the emotional rollercoaster of assisted reproductive treatments, and now turn to surrogacy as a last or best option to achieve parenthood.

Our agency helps guide heterosexual couples through every phase of the process — from legal arrangements to embryo transfers to ongoing communication with their surrogate. We also coordinate with fertility clinics to ensure seamless integration of medical procedures and support services.

LGBTQIA+ Intended Parents

Inclusive Support for Diverse Families

We are proud allies of the LGBTQIA+ community and are honored to assist individuals and couples of all gender identities and sexual orientations in building their families through surrogacy.

Many LGBTQIA+ intended parents work with egg or sperm donors in addition to a surrogate. Gay male couples, for example, often choose to use eggs from a donor and create embryos using one or both partners’ sperm. Lesbian couples may pursue surrogacy if one partner cannot carry a pregnancy or if they’re building a family through shared parenting.

We understand that LGBTQIA+ parents often face unique legal, cultural, and logistical challenges — and we are well-equipped to help navigate those. Our experienced team provides not only logistical support, but also emotional support in creating affirming and inclusive experiences.

We also ensure our surrogates are enthusiastic and supportive of working with LGBTQIA+ families, fostering respectful and positive relationships throughout the journey.

International Intended Parents

Cross-Border Family Building

Surrogacy in the U.S. is a beacon of hope for many international intended parents. With legally secure options, high-quality medical care, and experienced professionals, the United States is a preferred destination for families from Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, and beyond.

For parents living in countries where surrogacy is banned, restricted, or legally uncertain, U.S. surrogacy offers a safe and ethical path to parenthood. However, the process can be complex — involving visas, international law, embassy appointments, and citizenship for the child.

That’s why our agency specializes in supporting international clients. We coordinate with international attorneys, translators, and travel experts to make sure the entire process is as smooth as possible — from embryo creation to bringing your baby home.

We also help international families navigate U.S. immigration and passport processes, often referencing trusted government resources such as travel.state.gov and uscis.gov.

Cancer Survivors

Hope After Healing

For many cancer survivors, the desire to have children remains strong — even after facing a life-threatening diagnosis and undergoing treatments that affect fertility. Chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery can impact reproductive organs, and some individuals are advised to preserve embryos or eggs before starting treatment.

Years later, when cancer is in remission and life is moving forward, surrogacy can provide the opportunity to finally become a parent.

We deeply respect the courage and strength of cancer survivors and work closely with their medical teams to ensure any ongoing health considerations are taken into account. We also support survivors emotionally — understanding that their journey is about much more than medical logistics.

Our agency believes in second chances and helps survivors build the families they dreamed of before diagnosis. We also help coordinate with government resources and patient support networks, including cancer.gov.

HIV/SPAR Intended Parents

Parenthood with Dignity

Surrogacy for individuals living with HIV has become safer and more accepted in recent years, thanks in part to the Special Program of Assisted Reproduction (SPAR). This initiative, available in select U.S. fertility clinics, uses sperm washing and rigorous medical protocols to ensure the safety of the surrogate and child.

People living with HIV can now become biological parents with virtually no risk of transmission when proper protocols are followed.

We proudly serve HIV+ intended parents and work with clinics that participate in SPAR and follow CDC recommendations. Our agency understands the stigma that still exists around HIV, and we are committed to confidentiality, dignity, and respect in every interaction.

Thanks to modern science, legal protections, and education, HIV should never be a barrier to parenthood. For more information on HIV and reproductive health, we recommend visiting cdc.gov.

Conclusion

Your Journey, Our Mission

Surrogacy is not a one-size-fits-all process. Every intended parent walks a different road — whether they are a heterosexual couple facing infertility, a same-sex couple dreaming of parenthood, an international family seeking legal clarity, a cancer survivor rebuilding their future, or an HIV+ individual embracing hope.

At our agency, we don’t just match parents with surrogates — we match them with possibilities, dignity, and real support.

No matter where you come from or what your journey looks like, we are here to help you write the next chapter. You deserve a team that understands your story — and believes in your dream of becoming a parent.

Let’s build your family — together.
