At Village, we are committed to making your journey one filled with support and assurance from the very beginning.
Through our thoughtful screening and personalized matching process, we help create meaningful connections while protecting your time and emotional investment.
Carrier-Led Compensation
At Village Surrogacy, we don't use a one-size-fits-all compensation model. Each gestational carrier sets her own base compensation, which we then use as part of the matching process with intended parents.

FAQs for Surrogates
Who can become a surrogate? +
While requirements can vary slightly, most surrogates are healthy moms who have had at least one full-term, uncomplicated pregnancy. We will walk you through all medical and lifestyle guidelines early on so you feel confident and informed from the start.
How long does the surrogacy process take? +
From application to delivery, most journeys take about 15 to 18 months. This timeline can vary depending on matching, medical clearance, and transfer timing, but we are with you every step of the way to help keep things moving smoothly.
How are matches made with intended parents? +
We take a highly personalized approach to matching. We spend time getting to know you, your values, preferences, and goals, so we can thoughtfully match you with intended parents who align with what matters most to you. Compatibility and mutual respect are always our priority.
Will I have a say in the match? +
Absolutely. This is your journey too. You will have the opportunity to review intended parent profiles, ask questions, and participate in a match meeting before making any decisions.
What kind of support will I receive? +
You will have a dedicated coordinator guiding you throughout your journey, along with access to our surrogate support network, monthly community calls, and a Surrogate Big Sister who has been through the process before. We are here to support you emotionally, logistically, and every step in between.
What expenses are covered? +
All medical expenses related to the pregnancy are covered, along with additional benefits such as lost wage reimbursement, travel costs, and other agreed upon allowances outlined in your contract.
Will I need to travel often? +
We prioritize local matches whenever possible to minimize travel. In most cases, travel is limited to one to two key medical appointments, and all travel expenses are covered.
Can my partner or family be involved? +
Yes, and we strongly encourage it. Surrogacy is a shared experience, and we welcome your partner or support system to be involved. We also provide reimbursement so your partner can attend important appointments with you.
