    Stephanie matched us with a surrogacy agency that was unavailable to return calls and didn't protect us as intended parents when our surrogate began asking us for additional money outside of the surrogacy contract. When I reached out to Stephanie about this her answer was that the agency she matched us with was a good agency when she matched us. This company doesn't care about intended parents

    We used Family Match to help us find a surrogate and were blown away by the entire process. Their team was efficient, knowledgeable, and thorough, but above all, incredibly kind while guiding us through what can be an overwhelming journey. We were also so grateful for how quickly they moved; we received our first profile the very day we signed up. We found our surrogate through their thoughtful matching process and are hopeful that we’ll be growing our family soon.

    The process of matching with a surrogate can feel endless. On our first journey, we didn't even know where to start. Working with individual agencies felt impossible, confusing, and left us feeling completely helpless. FMC took the pain out of our matching experience, and had great candidates ready for our review within days, both times that we worked with them. Instead of going agency by

    We worked with Kaitlin, it’s hard to overstate how wonderful she was. She was unfailingly helpful, super competent, kind, and understanding, and never gave up on us. Kaitlin went above and beyond by coordinating with nurses and clinics when we ran out of patience to do so, and I’m certain we wouldn’t have made it to the other side without her. Seriously! This service is beyond worth it.

    We are forever grateful for Family Match. We had a long long road to have our two babies, and they were with us through all of it. Our main contact was Jenna and she made everything so much easier for us. She was always available to us when we needed her and it felt so nice to have an expert as an advocate for us throughout the process. We truly have family match to thank for doing most of the

  • Derek DolinDerek DolinAug 2026Intended Parent

    We had an exceptional experience with Family Match Consulting from beginning to end. Choosing a surrogate and navigating the surrogacy process is an incredibly important and deeply personal decision, and we always felt that we were in thoughtful, capable, and caring hands. Stephanie and Lauren were incredible throughout the entire journey. They took the time to truly understand what we were

  • Dan SchusterDan SchusterAug 2026Intended Parent

    There are very few people in the world who truly change your life - Family Match Consulting did that for us. After a very long and winding road of attempting to have a child, we came across Family Match Consulting via a referral from a friend. They found us the most amazing surrogate (literally an angel sent from above) and guided us through the entire process. They are the kindest people,

  • Katie BormasterKatie BormasterOct 2024Intended Parent

    Stephanie and her team at Family Match are simply extraordinary. They are the best in the business, hands down. On my journey to find a surrogate I was connected to many different agencies, each time I left feeling more hopeless and more overwhelmed — and frankly pretty anxious that my lifelong dream of having a child was not going to be possible. That all I changed when I met Stephanie. Her high

  • Tamika FelderTamika FelderOct 2024Intended Parent

    Stephanie is a blessing - I wouldn't have been able to bring my son into the world without her help. She was always there for us, even during the holidays when she could have easily passed us on to someone else. I had direct contact with her throughout the process, and her dedication was unwavering. Despite not being a celebrity, I felt valued and supported every step of the way. I couldn’t

  • Juan CampbellJuan CampbellOct 2024Intended Parent

    Stephanie was great to work with. She went above and beyond, even when our son was born over the Thanksgiving holiday. We are so grateful to her for bringing us a baby after so many years of thinking it wasn’t possible. She and her team are amazing.
