    As a first-time surrogate, I was nervous and had a lot of questions. Open Arms made me feel supported, protected, and respected from the very start. I was also included in the matching process, which meant a lot to me. They helped me find the right intended parents based on my values, beliefs, and what felt comfortable for me. That level of care made the whole journey feel much more personal and safe.

    What we appreciated most was their honesty about timelines. They never overpromised, but they also never left us feeling forgotten while we waited. The wait was painful at times, but Open Arms helped us stay patient and believe that the right surrogate was worth waiting for. In the end, ours truly felt like an angel.

    My Sub Zero freezer was making a loud grinding noise. The technician found a failing evaporator fan and swapped it out in under an hour. Now it is silent again!

    As international intended parents, we had a lot of questions about the legal process, embryo transfer, insurance, costs, and how everything would work from another country. Open Arms explained things clearly and stayed patient with us, even when we needed extra reassurance. Their guidance made a very overwhelming process feel possible

  • Calista FletcherAug 2026Intended Parent

    A great experience, and what stood out to us the most is that Souad checked in personally during our journey, and that made the experience feel very different from what we expected. It showed us that Open Arms really treats this work as something personal, not just professional

  • Kheira Ben BellaAug 2026Intended Parent

    Open Arms made a complicated process feel much more human. We always felt like there was someone in our corner, especially during the moments when we felt anxious or unsure

  • Charmain KahimiseJul 2026Surrogate

    I chose Open Arms as a surrogate because they made me feel respected from the very beginning. I never felt like I was just being moved through a system. My coordinator genuinely cared about how I was feeling, and I loved that she herself is a surrogate mom

  • Monika WilkJul 2026Intended Parent

    We came to Open Arms after a long and difficult fertility journey, and emotionally we were exhausted. We had already been through so many disappointments that it was hard to trust the process again. From our first conversation, the team made us feel safe, understood, and never rushed. They were honest about what could take time and never tried to make promises just to make us feel better. What…

  • Maddox HughesJul 2026Intended Parent

    Waiting for the right surrogate match was emotional, but our coordinator kept us updated and reassured. That consistent communication meant more to us than they probably realize

  • Lana TrowJul 2026Intended Parent

    As first-time intended parents, we had so many fears going into the surrogacy process. We worried about timelines, matching, legal steps, and whether we would feel supported after signing. Open Arms never made us feel like we were asking too much. They answered every question with patience and helped us feel less alone
