At Circle Surrogacy, every step of your surrogacy journey, from your first questions through the fertility process, pregnancy, delivery and two months post-delivery, will be carefully guided and coordinated by experienced and caring people who want you to remember this as one of the best times of your life.

At Circle Surrogacy we make sure surrogate mothers have a positive experience, and that they are cherished and respected for their roleAn interview with John Weltman, Circle Surrogacy's president John had his own two children through traditional surrogacy, in a process that started 16 years ago (June of 1991). His family still maintains a wonderful relationship with the surrogate mother of both of his kids, and John explained that this experience has greatly affected his outlook and attitude towards surrogacy. One of Circle Surrogacy's core beliefs, said John, is that "you cannot have a surrogacy agency without admiring the phenomenal women who are doing this". When talking to prospective parents, John wants to make sure they do not think of this as "somebody just delivering a baby to my door step... it is important that the surrogates are cherished and respected for their role and feel good about what they are doing."
