International Surrogacy
International Surrogacy Program
Shining Light Baby is proud to offer our extensive experience and dedicated support to Intended Parents from around the globe. We understand the unique challenges and concerns that come with pursuing surrogacy from a distance, and we are committed to making your journey as seamless and stress-free as possible.
Why Choose Surrogacy in the United States?
The United States is a leading destination for surrogacy due to its favorable and well-defined legal framework. Many countries lack comprehensive surrogacy laws, making the process challenging or even unfeasible. In contrast, numerous states in the U.S. have robust surrogacy regulations that protect the rights of both Intended Parents and Surrogates. This legal clarity provides peace of mind, knowing that your journey is supported by enforceable agreements and recognized parental rights.
Comprehensive Support for International Intended Parents
At Shining Light Baby, we prioritize keeping you informed and connected throughout your surrogacy journey. We understand it can be overwhelming to choose an agency, especially from a distance. Rest assured that with Shining Light Baby, you are in great hands. Our experienced professionals are well-versed in the unique considerations for International Intended Parents, and we are genuinely committed to making your parenthood dreams come true.
We provide the level of communication you need, ensuring that you feel supported every step of the way. Our team handles all logistical matters, so you can feel confident knowing we are by your side, even from afar.
Translation Services
Effective communication is crucial, and our Co-Founders are fluent in Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. If your primary language is Spanish or Mandarin, we provide direct translation services. For other languages, we are happy to arrange professional translators to assist you throughout your journey, ensuring clear and effective communication from your initial consultation to the birth of your child.
Customized Support
We recognize that every Intended Parent’s situation is unique, especially for those coming from abroad. Our agency is here to accommodate your specific needs and requests. Whether you have existing circumstances that require special attention or need customized support during your journey, we are here to help. Let us know your requirements so we can provide tailored consultation and assistance.
Matching with a Surrogate in a Legally Friendly State
Shining Light Baby ensures that you are matched with a Surrogate in a legally friendly state. This guarantees that you can have an enforceable surrogacy contract and establish parental rights either before or shortly after your baby’s birth. This legal foundation allows you to obtain the necessary documentation for your child’s citizenship in your home country, ensuring a smooth transition home after your baby’s birth.
Expertise in Surrogacy-Related Insurance
Navigating insurance can be complex, especially for international Intended Parents unfamiliar with the U.S. system. Shining Light Baby is well-versed in surrogacy-related insurance options. We will guide you through available insurance plans for surrogate pregnancies and newborns, providing clarity and support during our consultation.
Travel Arrangements
As an International Intended Parent, you can expect to visit the United States 2-4 times during your surrogacy journey. This typically includes visits for initial medical screening, key milestones such as the 20-week ultrasound, and the birth of your baby. Shining Light Baby assists with all travel arrangements, ensuring that your visits are smooth and well-coordinated. We will also help you obtain your baby’s passport and any additional certifications required for international travel.
