    I have had the most positive and supportive experience as a two-time surrogate with Northwest Surrogacy Center! NWSC was always available to answer any questions, but also made the process very easy to follow-there were no guessing games as to where I was in the process or what was going to happen next. I was also matched with the most incredible IPs, who I am still in contact with and still very

    I have done two full surrogacy journeys (1 – failed) with Northwest Surrogacy Center and they have been amazing every step of the way. From the first initial intake call I had, I felt that they truly cared about their surrogates and intended parents. They are thoughtful to your requests during the matching period and they were there to answer any questions I had without hesitation or judgement.

    I just finished my first surrogacy journey with NWSC in November, and I couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience. They thoughtfully matched me with an amazing couple, always checked in on me, and got back to me with any questions I had with great timing. From the very start to even after I had the baby they have always been so helpful and kind. I’m forever grateful for them for making this surrogacy dream of mine the most amazing experience. I would recommend them a million times!!

They are always making sure you're okay and love surprising their surrogates with gifts! Not once did I ever feel rushed or

    I have loved everything about working with Northwest Surrogacy Center! From start to finish the process was flawless, with an easy to follow timeline of events and clear communication. I really enjoy the relationship I’ve built with my case worker over the last 2 surrogate journeys, and if a third journey is in my cards, it will 100% be through NWSC!
