    I worked with Guidance Surrogacy as a GC in 2025 and am in the process of starting my second journey. To put it simply, Brook is fantastic. She has always gone above and beyond for me, from the beginning to the end of the journey. If something needs done, she gets it done! I cannot recommend this agency enough.

    I worked with Guidance Surrogacy as an IP. Brook and the other employees at Guidance did a phenomenal job walking my husband and me through all the steps of the surrogacy process and connected us with a wonderful surrogate. I would recommend them to anyone!
