"Being a surrogate was one of the most incredible experiences of my life, and I’m so grateful I chose Growing Generations to guide me through it. From the very beginning, they were kind, warm, and genuinely supportive, always keeping my best interests—both medically and emotionally—at heart. Their transparency, stellar reputation, and incredible staff made my decision easy, and they helped me fulfill this dream not just once, but three times. This is more than an agency—it’s a community, and I couldn’t be prouder to be part of it."

The Process to Becoming a Surrogate
With over 25 years of experience, Growing Generations has worked—and continues to work—with surrogates who reside all over the United States, as well as intended parents who reside on six different continents.
Surrogates are vital to helping individuals and couples grow families of their own. Our team is dedicated to making this a life-changing, fulfilling journey for surrogates and the intended parents. We support and take care of our surrogates from the moment they apply.
The first step to becoming a surrogate is to complete a quick survey to see if you qualify. Once qualified, you will complete our full surrogate application.
After you submit your surrogate application, it will be reviewed by our team. If your surrogate application is approved, you will be invited to schedule a consultation.
This process includes a review of your pregnancy-related medical records, income documentation, surrogacy preferences, and general paperwork. You will also complete psychological screening with a mental health professional.
During this time our matching team works hard to identify the right intended parent match for you. Once matched, your journey begins.
