When people hear about surrogacy, they often think of the parents hoping to welcome a baby. But surrogacy also transforms the lives of the women who choose to become surrogates — and their families.
For many surrogates, the decision to carry a baby for someone else is deeply emotional and personal. But it’s also a practical and powerful way to support their own family’s future, whether that means paying off debt, creating stability, or reaching long-term goals.
Here’s how surrogacy doesn’t just give — it gives back.
Surrogates are generously compensated for their time, effort, and emotional investment. First-time surrogates in our program receive over $60,000 in base compensation, bonuses, allowances, and reimbursement for expenses.
This money isn’t just a paycheck — for many women, it’s a launchpad.
As a parent, your surrogacy journey becomes part of your family’s story. Many surrogates share how the experience taught their children values like kindness, generosity, and compassion. Your kids will watch you do something brave and selfless, build a relationship with another family, and follow through on something meaningful. Surrogacy doesn’t just support your future financially — it models the kind of character you want your children to see.
Surrogacy is a journey of strength and purpose. Many women walk away with more than just compensation — they gain confidence, pride, and deep personal growth.
It is important that you’re guided and supported by professionals at every step. At Chesapeake Surrogacy, you’re surrounded by a team that values your health and voice.
For moms who love being pregnant but are done growing their own families, surrogacy is a way to use that gift again — in a new, purpose-driven way.
Worried about managing appointments, childcare, or work? Our agency will help with all of it — because we know you’re juggling a lot already. Surrogates in our program receive:
Monthly allowances for small costs
Reimbursement for lost wages, childcare, and travel
A dedicated case manager to help organize everything
Mental health support if and when you need it
You’re not expected to figure this out alone. You’re cared for, listened to, and respected every step of the way.
t might sound unexpected — but many surrogates say that their journey actually brought them closer to their own family.
Their children watched them do something meaningful
Their partners felt pride in their selflessness
Their households experienced new financial peace and purpose
They all grew through the experience, together
“It felt like a team effort. My husband supported every step, my kids were curious and proud, and now I have this story I’ll carry for life.” – Tessa, 36
