THINGS TO KNOW

The time it takes to match with a surrogate can vary based on several factors, including your specific preferences, the requirements of the IP(s) clinic, the availability of qualified surrogates, and the necessary screening processes. While many intended parents find a suitable match within a few months, some matches may happen more quickly or take a bit longer.

Our agency program fee covers a comprehensive range of services, including thorough surrogate screening, the escrow fee, maternity claims management, and full journey facilitation—even post-birth—to provide a smooth and supportive experience for all parties involved.

An Intended Parent is an individual or couple who seeks to have a child through assisted reproductive technologies, such as surrogacy or egg donation. They are the legal guardians who intend to raise the child once born, often because they cannot conceive or carry a pregnancy themselves.

Yes, some people attempt independent surrogacy, which can reduce agency fees. However, navigating the medical, legal, and emotional complexities on your own can introduce significant risks.

If you do not have embryos but know you want to utilize an Egg Donor or Surrogate, you can still begin the process. First, you'll need to work with a fertility clinic to create embryos, either using your own eggs or those from an Egg Donor. Once the embryos are created, we can match you with a surrogate to carry the pregnancy. Our agency will guide you through the surrogacy processes, providing support every step of the way.

At Sprout Surrogacy, we require that Intended Parents and surrogates maintain some level of relationship throughout the journey, whether it's simple communication or a closer connection. This helps ensure mutual understanding, trust, and a positive experience for both parties. The specifics of the relationship are based on your preferences, and our agency will guide and support both parties to foster a healthy dynamic during the process.

Working with Sprout Surrogacy offers you a personalized, compassionate approach to building your family. We provide 24/7 support, thoroughly vet surrogates, and offer legal and emotional guidance throughout the journey. Our boutique-style service combines expertise with a deep commitment to all parties involved, fostering trust, transparency, and a successful outcome. Additionally, our Sprout Nurtures initiative supports not just Intended Parents, but surrogates, creating a collaborative and supportive environment for everyone.

An anonymous donor's identity is kept confidential, and neither the donor nor the recipient knows each other. In contrast, an open donor allows for some level of communication or relationship between the donor and the recipient, often with agreed-upon contact.
