Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia

DELIVER THE ULTIMATE GIFT AS A SURROGATE

Surrogacy is a unique pathway that allows you to give the ultimate gift—the gift of family. At the Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia, our team of experienced professionals and former surrogates stands ready to guide you every step of the way. We ensure a supportive, well-managed process that respects your commitment and bravery. 

WHAT IS A SURROGATE?

At the Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia, we are often asked, “What exactly is a surrogate?” A surrogate, or more specifically a gestational carrier, is a woman who generously agrees to carry a pregnancy for another individual or couple—the intended parents—with the intention of giving them the precious gift of a child. At our agency, we specialize in gestational surrogacy, where the surrogate has no genetic link to the baby she carries; the child is conceived through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) using the eggs and sperm of the intended parents or donors. Before the surrogacy journey begins, both the Intended Parents and the Surrogate sign a contract and the Gestational Carrier is compensated for her efforts.

WHO DO YOU HELP WHEN YOU BECOME A SURROGATE MOTHER

When you make the choice to take part in surrogacy, you’ll have the chance to help all kinds of people create families of their own. The people helped by surrogacy are from all walks of life, of all sexual orientations, and of varying ethnic backgrounds. Some of the people who work with surrogates are married, and some aren’t.

Here’s a brief listing of people who may turn to surrogacy so they can have families of their own:

  • Intended mothers who, for various reasons have been unable to carry a child to term
  • Heterosexual couples who face challenges with infertility
  • Intended parents who are same-sex couples and who wish to have a genetic connection to their baby
  • Intended mothers who have a medical condition that makes pregnancy dangerous for themselves or their baby
At the Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia, we realize how intensely personal the surrogacy journey is. That’s why surrogates in our program choose their intended parents.

GIVING HOPE TO INTENDED PARENTS BY BECOMING A SURROGATE

Why do women decide to become surrogates? The most common reason is to help others. While not a requirement, many surrogates have also finished growing their own families and enjoyed uncomplicated pregnancies. They also really enjoyed being pregnant. At the Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia, many of our surrogates have enjoying working with us so much they decide to sign up for a second or third journey. Surrogates in our program are compensated $60,000+.
