For Surrogates

Become a Surrogate


Give a family their greatest wish, and be supported, celebrated, and generously compensated every step of the way. Surrogates with Heart to Hands earn $60,000 to $100,000 or more.

Private and free. It takes about two minutes.

A gift like no other

Surrogates are healthy women who choose to help build a family for someone else. It is one of the most generous things a person can do, and you are never alone in it. From your very first question to the day a baby is placed in their parents’ arms, you are cared for as a person, never treated as a number.

What your experience could look like

You are never alone

A dedicated case manager who knows your name, checks in often, and picks up when you call.

You are legally protected

Your own independent attorney, paid for by the intended parents, reviews everything before you sign.

You set the pace

The process works around your life, your family, and your schedule as much as possible.

You choose your match

You meet the intended parents before committing. If it does not feel right, you do not move forward.

You are well compensated

Generous total compensation, plus monthly support and bonuses along the way.

You are celebrated

Care packages and a team that treats you like family, never like a transaction.

What you could earn

You set your own base within the range, and we help you decide what is right for your experience.

Do you qualify?

Every situation is a little different, and the quickest way to know is simply to ask. As a general guide, surrogates we work with usually:

  • Are in good physical and mental health and open to thorough screening
  • Are between 21 and 42 years old
  • Have a body mass index (BMI) of 32 or below
  • Have given birth and are currently raising a child of their own
  • Have a stable, supportive home with family or friends behind them
  • Do not smoke or misuse alcohol or other substances
  • Have not taken antidepressants in the past several months
  • Have had no more than three prior cesarean deliveries
  • Are not currently receiving government assistance
  • Live in a surrogacy-supportive U.S. state (we are not able to work with surrogates in New York or Louisiana, or with anyone living outside the United States)

From curious to incredible, here is how it works

  1. Take the short questionnaire. Quick, private, no commitment. Find out if you could be a fit.
  2. Have a casual conversation. We answer your questions, with no pressure.
  3. Complete your application and screening. We guide you through every step.
  4. Meet and choose your match. You decide who you would like to help.
  5. Begin, fully supported. Your case manager and care team stay beside you to the finish.

They are big enough to be confident and knowledgeable, but small enough that I never felt like a number.Heart to Hands Surrogate
