The Creation of Canadian Surrogacy Community
Canadian Surrogacy Community was founded on the belief that compassion, kindness, and support should be essential in all aspects of creating a family through surrogacy. The struggles and grief that accompany infertility make every journey matter on a personal level. You are not a number to us. The programs designed in CSC have evolved through experience. Constant growth is essential to improving and offering a superior level of care. It starts with the woman who created the company – Angela Pickering
“Life is a circle of giving back because the world is about helping others. That’s why we exist at all. I grew up as a “fixer” and I didn’t really know what that meant until I began to empower myself to think outside the box and truly understand my strength as a woman, a Mother, and an entrepreneur. Canadian Surrogacy Community is how I’ve decided to spend my days finding deeper meaning in life.”

“I had the great pleasure of being introduced to Angela and the Canadian Surrogacy Community through a dear friend. I had always been interested in being a surrogate but never knew how to go about it. I was blessed with two beautiful children of my own and was heartbroken to watch others struggle or be stripped of the ability to create a family of their own. Angela was wonderful and so supportive. She walked me through the whole process and provided ongoing support throughout the entire journey. Any questions I had she was there to help me answer. Anything from a great tea to drink for the nausea to explaining to me multiple times what each drug is for. The Canadian Surrogacy Community is such an imperative part of the surrogacy journey for both the surrogate and the intended parent. Without Angela and her team so many of us would not have found our perfect match. Thank you CSC for your tireless support, compassion and love you provide to this community. You truly make dreams come true.”
Start Your JourneyFrequently Asked Questions
Here are a few of the questions that are commonly asked by surrogate mothers. If you have any other questions for our team we would be happy to answer them.
Why do you want to become a surrogate?
The answer to why is very personal to each woman who makes the choice of surrogacy. I can only speak for myself, but I feel that life is about helping others. If you can, you simply should. It’s the view on life that I’ve always had. It was important for me to teach a valuable lesson to my children about giving back to others. I wanted to make an impact in someone else’s lives in the best way I knew how. Having babies was a breeze for me! So it just made sense. But through the process I also saw the ripple effect when you create life – it never is just the parents of the baby that are changed. Everyone around you and them sees and begins to process your choice differently. It’s incredible to experience such beauty unfold.
How much are they paying you?
Canadian Law does not allow for women to be compensated for being a surrogate, but she can be reimbursed for an array of expenses related to the pregnancy.
