Jen and her team are amazing! They are fast acting, thoughtful and most importantly incredibly kind human beings I was impressed from the very beginning of contacting Jen. They provided me many profiles upfront and pulled me thru difficult times They were always on top of my surrogate's appointments and milestone dates. They took initiative in contacting my clinic/lawyer/surrogate and booking trips for my surrogate They are very knowledgeable and were always super patient in explaining medical situations to me Additionally, the COO has been very considerate in helping me in financial planning. I wouldn't have been able to afford the journey without her help I'm extremely grateful I met Jen and her amazing team and I'll tell my baby how much they helped me go thru this oncein-a-lifetime journey

B, I, & A
There are no words which can express our gratitude to each of you for all you have done for our family. I'm sure you receive notes like this often, because the work you do is life changing- universe changing! My prayer is that our sweet Baby A grows up and brings her own special light to the world to make it a better place, just as each of you do in your unique ways. Thank you for the beautiful hat, for taking the time out of your days to visit us when we were in Nampa, and for your constant support through the good and the difficult. We are so grateful to have found United and to have met each of you
With so much love & gratitude, B, I, & A
Thank you very much for your care and for helping us to become a family!
I researched surrogacy and various agencies for about a year before meeting with Jen from United for coffee while I was pregnant with my last keeper I knew I wanted to be a surrogate and wanted to have ample time to do my research and decide which agency was best for me. Jen did not make me feel pressured to be with United and is just a very genuine person United emailed me following the birth of my last keeper and that meant a lot. It was so caring for the agency to remember I was giving birth when I had not even started any processes with them. I spoke with other surrogates before making my decision to go with United and I could not be more pleased I am currently almost 26 weeks pregnant with the surro baby and United has been SO easy to work with, everything is very clear and streamline I intent to be a surrogate again and will 100% go with United

Throughout my time with United Surrogacy- they have been nothing short of amazing They have made the travel, transfer, and paperwork SO easy If I were to do another journey- i would 100% go through them again. SO thankful for the attention to detail they have given me throughout my journey (over a year, due to no fault of them) They really are there for you, which is a huge bonus with something as amazing as this

I am a carrier that completed my journey with United in June and I could not be happier with my agency I spent a few months researching agencies, and I actually settled on United because of the amazing women running the agency They’re compassionate, knowledgeable, supportive and most importantly ethical Even though I spent about a year doing research on my own, they always made sure to educate as much as possible and always made sure decisions were well informed Of course separate lawyers were used as well as 3rd party escrow What I loved was that their involvement was as much or as little as I needed There was times when I could message them at any day or night and they’d be there for me and times when I didn’t need hand holding and they gave me my space Some other carriers want them at transfer or delivery and they’re there, and in my case I liked it being just my IFs, husband and me They never pushed anything I didn’t want, and they were there for anything I needed A big thing for me as well, they have some of the lowest agency fees I’ve seen That was important because I hate seeing some IPs get taken advantage of United truly cares about everyone and strives to make sure it’s fair for carriers and IPs I can’t say enough good things about them If have another journey I will without a doubt use United again
I'm a second time surrogate and used a different agency for my first journey It wasn't a great experience. In contrast United was amazing. They were easy to work with and made sure my wants in a match were met completely Billing and paperwork were handled efficiently and accurately Overall a great experience and I will use them again
The ladies and support you get as a surrogate is unmatched I was with another agency previously and I did not enjoy anything about them. I have done 2 journeys with this agency and working on my 3rd
