Have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of no greater than thirty (30)
Live in a surrogacy-friendly state (unfortunately, if you live in Michigan, New York, Nebraska or Louisiana we can’t accept you)
Have a support system of friends and family. If married or partnered, the spouse/partner must also be willing to cooperate and participate however necessary
Love & Kindness offers a standard benefits and payment package which can be further customized to your liking. The compensation varies depending on your location, surrogacy history, and the final results of your payment package selection.
If you’re interested in becoming a surrogate with Love & Kindness, we have an application online form you can fill out right at the bottom of this page.
Based on guidelines set by fertility clinics, we can work with surrogates nine (9) months after a vaginal delivery or one (1) year after a cesarean delivery.
Of course! Since you’re being a gestational carrier (which means you’re not providing your eggs), you don’t even need to have tubes at all! You’ll be pregnant through in-vitro fertilization (IVF) embryo transfer.
No! You do not need your own medical health insurance to become a surrogate. Your intended parents will be responsible for all your pregnancy-related medical expenses and will purchase a health insurance plan for you if necessary. But if you already have a health insurance plan, Love & Kindness will review the policy to see if it is appropriate to use for surrogacy. If it is and you save intended parents’ money, then you’ll be paid an extra five thousand dollars bonus after the delivery!
No, all the fees and expenses are covered by the Intended Parents via funds in the escrow account. However, there are times where you may have to pay an upfront cost for things like co-pays, deductibles, and travel expenses (such as hotel check-in deposit or food), and be reimbursed later.
Your financial package will be addressed in your gestational surrogacy agreement with your intended parents. Love & Kindness will work with a professional escrow service to distribute funds to you, according to the terms on the contract. The payment comes in two forms, mailed check or ACH direct deposit.
Unfortunately no. Surrogacy can be a physically and emotionally taxing process; you need the support from your significant other to be a successful surrogate. If you’re legally married, we will also need your spouse’s full cooperation to ensure the intended parents’ parental rights legal proceedings are done smoothly. If you happen to be estranged from your spouse for a long time already but you’re still legally married to him/her, or if you’re in the middle of a divorce/legal separation, please discuss your situations with us fully so we can address it with professional legal help from a qualified attorney.
Yes. An SSN is needed to conduct financial background and criminal history checks for any woman who applies for our surrogacy program. ALL information you share with Love and Kindness is kept private, secure and confidential.
Intended parents and the surrogate will video chat through Zoom or Skype before the match is confirmed. During this chat, both parties can openly ask questions about each other and the program. We’ll also confirm important matters regarding the process.
Intended parents can visit and communicate with the surrogate to the degree both parties are comfortable with. Even if your intended parents are not able to meet you in person during the pregnancy, they will definitely meet you at the birthing hospital!
During the medical process of your surrogacy, carriers are expected to abstain from sexual intercourse two (2) weeks before and two (2) weeks after the embryo transfer. The recommended timeline and guidelines may change, however, depending on your IVF clinic.
