A Meaningful Commitment, Fully Supported

You've already done something most people can't — you've grown a life. And somewhere in that experience, you started wondering if you could do it for someone else.

That instinct is exactly why we're here. We work with women who are ready to make that commitment — and we make sure every step of it is clear, supported, and on your terms.

  • Are between approved age ranges
  • Have had at least one healthy pregnancy
  • Are raising at least one child
  • Live in a surrogacy-friendly state
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle

Compensation

Compensation varies based on experience and individual circumstances. We provide a transparent breakdown during the application process so you know what to expect from the beginning.

Ongoing Support Includes

  • Dedicated case management
  • Legal guidance and contract coordination
  • Medical appointment coordination
  • Clear communication between all parties
  • Support throughout pregnancy and delivery

Meet Whitney Lasater

Whitney Lasater, Founder of Central Valley Surrogacy

I became a surrogate because I wanted to help someone build their family. What I didn't expect was how much it would change me.

I carried three times. I know the appointments, the uncertainty, the moments that are hard to explain to people who haven't been through it. I also know what it feels like when it works — when you hand a baby to parents who have been waiting for years.

That's why I built this agency. Not to manage a process, but to make sure everyone in it feels supported, protected, and never alone.
