Surrogates

The Foundation of our Village

Becoming a Surrogate

You will be a key part of something that is truly unique and special! At Village, we understand that having a vibrant base of quality gestational carriers is the lifeline of a successful surrogacy agency. So, you’ll notice that we spend a significant amount of time recruiting and vetting our gestational carrier candidates to make sure that they are the best possible candidates to embark on a surrogacy journey.

Be a Part of Our Village

We assist our intended parents with growing their families, but we also value, admire, and support our gestational carriers. While our pre-screening process is comprehensive, we feel that ultimately the process benefits our selected gestational carriers as well as our intended parents, so that no one suffers the disappointment of broken matches, or incompatible expectations.

Unlike large national agencies, we do not intend to maintain excessive numbers of candidates in our portfolio who sit in a database for an extended period of time. We elect to work with a smaller number of vetted gestational carriers so that we can give customized concierge service and personalized care to everyone in our village, including you! This allows our gestational carriers to be matched more quickly than at many large national agencies, and to be matched with local intended parents so that you can all have a more personalized and positive experience.

Surrogate Qualifications & Requirements:

We are thrilled to meet and work with new gestational carriers. However, there are several important criteria that all of our carriers must satisfy. To be accepted into the pre-screening process, a Village gestational carrier must meet the following requirements:
