Apply to Become a Surrogate in West Virginia

Your health and safety as a surrogate are our top priorities. You and the child you will carry will always be our most pressing concern, which is why every prospective surrogate must first meet our requirements before joining the program. Please view our requirements list below before completing an application.

• Your BMI must be between 18-33
• You must be a non-smoker
• You must be between the ages of 21 and 44 years old
• You must have given birth previously; no medical complications and no more and three c-sections in total

Upon receiving your application, we will review it closely to decide on whether our requirements have been met.

Step 1: Fill Out an Application

Within the surrogate application, you’ll be asked to provide information about your medical history, especially about your past pregnancies and deliveries.

Step 2: Complete the Surrogate Screening

Our team will complete a review of your application to determine whether you’ve met our program’s requirements. If the requirements are met, we’ll ask that you please participate in a series of interviews with our team so we can discuss your information in greater detail and get to know you on a more personal level.

Step 3: Create a Surrogate Profile

If you are accepted into the program, we will move forward with creating your gestational surrogate profile, which we will share with prospective intended parents during the matching process. These profiles do not reveal private information such as contact details. They simply serve to outline who you are as a person and detail your past pregnancy and delivery experiences.

Step 4: Get Matched With Intended Parents

The matching process consists of two stages:

During stage one, our team conducts separate interviews with the surrogate and her prospective intended parents. Both parties will be asked questions about the particulars of the surrogacy journey to determine if a good match is possible.

During stage two, our team will schedule a group meeting with all parties where we’ll discuss core areas of a surrogacy arrangement. These topics include support systems, how everyone prefers to communicate, and options for planning for multiple fetuses.

If all parties are in agreement, then our team will consider you matched! This is a very important milestone in becoming a surrogate.
