For intended parents
You've already given so much to get here. Let's get this part right.
We know the appointments, the waiting, the numbers on the bills. We've lived it. Sojourn gives you a careful, honest match without an agency-sized price tag.
What working with us looks like
Fewer profiles, better ones
You won't scroll a catalog. We bring you a small number of surrogates we've screened and would feel good about ourselves.
Our honest notes
Every profile comes with what we noticed: strengths and concerns. If something worries us, you'll hear it from us first.
One point of contact
You'll have our direct line. No handoffs to a new coordinator every few weeks.
Help with the hard questions
Termination and reduction views, contact during and after pregnancy, delivery plans. We help you talk about them before you commit.
Trusted referrals
Independent surrogacy attorneys, escrow, and insurance specialists. You choose; we make the introductions.
Time to decide
No pressure to say yes on a call. A good match will still be a good match next week.
The second look
“Cleared” should mean something.
We were told our surrogate was cleared. That word did a lot of heavy lifting. Our screening, included with every match, exists so you can see what's behind it before you commit your heart and your savings.
Nurse medical records review
Included
A registered nurse with pregnancy experience reads her prior pregnancy, delivery, and health records and writes up anything that deserves a question before you match.
Psychological evaluation & background check
Included
A licensed psychologist evaluates her and her partner, and we run a background check on every adult in her home, so you know she's emotionally ready, and supported, for what's ahead.
These reviews inform your decision. Medical clearance always comes from your IVF clinic's physician, and nothing here replaces your attorney's advice.
The full cost picture, honestly
Our fee is one piece of your budget. We'll never pretend otherwise. On your consultation, we'll walk through a realistic total with you, line by line.
