Learn more and enjoy the journey!

There’s a lot to learn about surrogacy and we’re here to support you every step of the way. We host casual information sessions throughout the year where you can learn about surrogacy requirements and meet women who’ve worked with Northwest Surrogacy Center.

For our surrogates, we host monthly meet-ups and regular gifts to offer support, build community and show our gratitude. For our intended parents, we also offer monthly meet-ups. Surrogacy is a fantastic journey and we’re here to provide whatever level of support you need!

Surrogacy with NWSC during COVID-19

NWSC is committed to helping families achieve their dream of parenthood through surrogacy while also prioritizing everyone’s health and safety. We understand families and surrogates may have waited years to start this process, and we are ready to help you with your journey.

Are NWSC offices open?
Yes, most NWSC employees are working remotely, and all meetings are being held over Zoom. We continue to be available during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 8 AM – 5 PM PST.

Can I still start my surrogacy journey as an intended family?
Yes, potential surrogates can complete the screening process virtually and are available to match with families. If you are interested in finding out more, the first step is to schedule a free, initial consultation over Zoom here. When you are ready to get started, the NWSC fee agreement can be emailed and signed electronically.

Can I become a surrogate during COVID-19?
Yes, we are excited that so many wonderful women are contacting us to start their surrogacy journey and help a deserving intended family have a baby. We are completing the screening process over email, phone, and Zoom. If you are ready to find out more, please complete our online intake form.

Can I be matched?
Yes, we have many loving families and generous surrogates ready to be matched. Surrogates are able to undergo all the screening steps virtually, and we are matching them as soon as they complete that process. Match meetings are held over Zoom, and surrogates and families are also working on their legal contracts as they normally would after a successful match meeting.

Are clinics open?
Yes,the process looks a little different than before COVID-19, but medical screenings and embryo transfers are taking place.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out any time, and you can reach us at info@nwsurrogacycenter.com.

Sincerely,

The NWSC Team
