About Chesapeake Surrogacy Center

We coordinate every stage of the gestational surrogacy journey, working closely with fertility clinics, legal professionals and independent escrow agencies, intended parents and surrogates feel supported and informed from the first conversation through delivery.

Compassionate, Accessible Surrogacy

Our mission is to make gestational surrogacy in our local communities ethical and accessible for all.

We believe the surrogacy journey should feel supported, informed, and thoughtfully guided from start to finish.

Surrogacy is both an emotional and financial commitment. That’s why we center our approach on transparent communication, clearly defined milestones, and fair, predictable fee structures — so you always understand what comes next.

As an experienced case management agency, we work with trusted, independent professionals at every stage, ensuring that intended parents and surrogates receive experienced, unbiased guidance throughout the entire surrogacy process.
