Could you be a candidate for surrogacy in Fresno? Los Angeles Surrogacy works with candidate surrogates from all over California. Our mission is to help intended parents from all over the world fulfill their dreams of becoming parents, and match them with the right surrogate mother.
In our experience, no matter where you are from, California is the best state to undergo the surrogacy process. With our experience and knowledge in the field, we love to be the guiding light both for intended parents and for surrogate mothers.
Why Start the Process of Surrogacy in Fresno?
California is, in our opinion, the best place in the world to pursue surrogacy. California surrogacy laws are the most progressive in the country. Contracts can be customized to the exact needs of both surrogates and intended parents.
In California, intended parents and surrogates are represented by two separate lawyers. This ensures that both parties are safe and comfortable in their demands and duties.
The Golden State does not discriminate based on sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion, or any other label. California also offers the most advanced medical technology in the world, with many different IVF doctors and fertility clinics to choose from.
Fresno is also home to a progressive social environment: this is great for making friends and finding support in your journey. The city is also a beautiful place to sojourn during your surrogacy journey if you don’t already live there. It is a base for Yosemite National Park, and the waterfalls and rock formations here are breathtaking.
Finding a Surrogate in Fresno
Los Angeles Surrogacy conducts a thorough surrogate screening process, ensuring all prospective surrogates are both physically and mentally fit to fill the role of surrogate mother. Initial screening interviews are conducted by one of our case managers, then medical doctors and psychologists respectively perform physical examinations and emotional wellness checks.
After a background check and lifestyle coaching, we discuss personal preferences with candidate surrogates. This includes any specific wants and needs they have for their journey as a surrogate. These preferences are later compared with intended parents’ preferences to find a perfect match.
Intended Parents Applying for Surrogacy in Fresno
Similar to the surrogacy screening process, the intended parent application process will begin with an interview with a Los Angeles Surrogacy case manager. This interview will provide answers to intended parents’ questions, a feel for what the surrogacy process will look like with Los Angeles Surrogacy, and an understanding of the responsibilities of an intended parent.
Then, we conduct background checks and ask for personal information, proof of employment, and living arrangement. We detail your current lifestyle habits and ask about your support system at home.
Lastly, we ask about your preferences so we can find your perfect surrogate match.

What is the Cost of Surrogacy in Fresno?
Surrogacy costs range greatly from case to case, because every journey is unique and requires different things. Costs cover the surrogate compensation and reimbursements (if necessary, for things like maternity clothing and travel), IVF price, legal fees, and your agency fee. All in all, surrogacy as a whole costs about $150,000-250,000.
At Los Angeles Surrogacy, we offer many different financing options to assist intended parents in their payments.
Surrogates: Undergoing the Process of Surrogacy in Fresno
Before you decide to embark on your journey as a surrogate, there are a few qualifications you will need to meet.
A candidate surrogate needs to:
- Be aged between 20 and 39.
- Have a healthy BMI.
- Have already had at least one successful pregnancy.
- Be raising one or more of her own children in her own home.
- Not receive government assistance.
- Reside in the United States legally.
- Not be taking any drugs: the list includes nicotine, antidepressants, and recreational drugs.
One major qualification that all prospective surrogates have to meet is the desire to pursue surrogacy on their own accord, and not for anybody else. And of course, all surrogate mothers must understand that the baby they carry is not their own, as it is not biologically related to them, but rather they help a person or a couple start a family by delivering a miracle.
If you meet these requirements and are interested in starting your journey as a surrogate, contact us here and let’s get you set up with a meeting!
Surrogacy Compensation in Fresno
Surrogate compensation varies in a range, because each case is unique. For example, surrogate base compensation can change based on how many children the surrogate carries, how experienced the surrogate is, and if the surrogate needs a C-section during delivery. Reimbursement numbers fluctuate depending on the surrogate’s job and how late into the pregnancy she is able to work, as well as how maternity clothes, vitamins, travel accommodations, and other pregnancy-related expenses accumulate.
With all of this in mind, a surrogate typically makes between $30,000 and $80,000.
