At Independent Surrogacy Support, we provide personalized guidance for both intended parents and gestational carriers navigating their surrogacy journeys.
What sets us apart from a traditional agency?
We offer the same level of expert support you’d expect from a full-service agency—without the high agency fees—and with a more personal support every step of the way.
Whether you're just starting out or already matched, we’re here to walk alongside you, offering compassionate and experienced support from beginning to end.

I'm Shannon!
I’m the founder of Independent Surrogacy Support and have completed three surrogacy journeys myself. With both personal and professional experience navigating the surrogacy process, I understand how important it is to feel supported and informed. I’m dedicated to guiding intended parents and surrogates through each step of their journey with personalized care and support.
