    Definitely had an amazing experience with this agency! My case manager, Ashley, was an absolute gem! I never felt alone or left in the dark. I had full support from start to finish. I would feel honored and grateful if I am able to be a surrogate for them again.

    I have recently just delivered a healthy baby girl for a beautiful family. I worked with Surrogate Parenting Services. This was my first journey being a surrogate and it was everything I hoped for! All the ladies I worked with were so dedicated to making sure I felt supported and reassured during the whole journey. Ashley was my case manager and was there every step of the way! Answered all my

    After years of walking the infertility journey with close friends of ours, my husband and I thought surrogacy would be an amazing experience. This was my first surrogacy journey and I can’t say enough positive things about SPS. The team was professional and encouraging during each stage of the journey. I spoke with the agency, who offered a lot of helpful information like what it could be like

  • Cecilia SibonyCecilia SibonyApr 2026Intended Parent

    We worked with Surrogate Parenting Services as intended parents and had a generally very positive experience, with a few realities worth noting for anyone considering them. We signed with the agency in December 2022, at a time when post-COVID wait times were still quite long. We were initially told to expect about a 9-month timeline to match, and we received our first potential match in August

  • Nicole SanchezNicole SanchezMar 2026Surrogate

    I recently completed my first journey as surrogate and it truly was an amazing experience. I had Ashley as my case manager and she was there for me every step of the way. She was at most of all my appointments, she advocated for me, she answered any questions I had, and was always a phone call away if I needed her. Also, Christi did a phenomenal job in matching me with an amazing couple. Without

  • Zion RodriquezZion RodriquezMar 2026Surrogate

    My name is Amy and this was my first time being a surrogate. I went into the entire experience not knowing what to expect but the smartest choice I made was choosing SPS. They truly take care of you from beginning to end. SPS is with you every step of the way guiding you and supporting you mentally, physically, and emotionally. I literally walked away from the experience wishing I could do it a

  • Rachel SalazarRachel SalazarJan 2026

    Please do not work with surrogate parenting services!! They are unethical. Agency assigns attorney and that shouldn’t be. Advising an attorney is fine, but they do not get to choose for you. They allow attorneys to handle escrow, that too is unethical. They also require an agency rep to go to transfer and be at every doctors appointment and the birth. That is not something agencies should require.

  • Briza LambarenBriza LambarenOct 2025Surrogate

    Had an amazing experience working with SPS for the second time. Sherri, Heather, Christi and everyone else involved were amazing. Helping someone create or grow their family is a blessing.

  • Bronte RoseBronte RoseOct 2025Surrogate

    I was a first time surrogate for SPS and hopefully this won't be my last time either. I can't truly express how helpful everyone is at SPS. Let me tell you, they are the nicest people I have ever met. Sherri, is absolutely amazing and I recommend her to everyone. Working with her was like having a second mother, she is beyond nurturing and caring. She's incredible. I truly am thankful for the opportunity SPS gave me.
