About Circle Surrogacy
Thirty years of building families — because someone once did it for ours.
Circle Surrogacy was founded in 1995 by a small group of former intended parents who found the agency they wished had existed for them. Three decades later, we've helped bring more than 2,900 children into the world.
What we believe
Four commitments that shape every journey.
Honesty first
We give you real numbers, real timelines, and the answer to hard questions on the first call — not the fifth.
One team, one journey
Your case manager, matching specialist, and legal team stay with you from consultation to homecoming. No handoffs.
Care for both sides
Intended parents and surrogates are treated as equal parts of the story. Neither can succeed without the other.
Built by people who've been there
Many of our team members came to this work through their own family-building journeys — surrogate, donor, or parent.
Leadership
The team you'll actually work with.
