Intended Parents

We need you

Hi! Nice to meet you! First of all, thanks a lot for taking your time to read through our profile. We are D and M, a German/Italian couple living in Bavaria, Germany, right next to Munich and just an hour away from the alps. We have been together 5 years and got married the summer of 2021. In our spare time, we are very lucky to share many interests and hobbies, as we both enjoy skiing, biking, and sailing as well as cooking. Moreover, we love to travel the world and to meet new cultures and countries as often as possible.

Given that we are both coming from big and close families, spending a lot of time with our family and friends has always been very valuable for us. This is also why starting a family of our own has been very important for us since the beginning of our relationship five years ago. As both of us became godfathers over the last years, the desire to find our own family has become ever bigger lately. However, as there are no regulations for surrogacy in our country so far, we reached out to Canada to start this exciting journey.

It is very important for us to be transparent to our future child about the whole process. Therefore, we would also love to embark on this journey with a surrogate who is also open to meet our child in the future. So far, we were very lucky to have a lovely known egg donor who helped us to create 10 embryos (8 PGT-A tested).

We would love to get to know you and are looking forward for a first chat!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your dedication and generosity that helps intended parents to complete their family.

All the best,

D and M

Becoming parents is one of those dreams you fear will never become real, especially when you’re gay and live in a country where only heterosexual couples are allowed to adopt children and surrogacy is not even an option. But since the limits to our happiness are often only in our heads, we rolled up our sleeves to make the impossible come true and finally came here, looking for you! So let’s tell you something about us.

We are G and V, a 33 year old Italian couple of guys who happen to be born just a day apart! We live just outside the city of Rome, in a quiet area surrounded by woods and lakes. We’ve got two lazy cats, like traveling, making home-made pasta and pizza and share our time with the people we love. We both work in education, G as a teacher in middle school and  V as an educator with children with disabilities.

We’re convinced that surrogacy is not only about “people helping people”. It’s more like creating long-life connections between families. Among the thousand things we don’t know about what life after being parents will be like, one thing is certain, being that Canada will be our second home and our child will grow up aware of the amazing journey that brought him/her to life.

There is so much we’d like to tell you, but we hope you’ll enjoy our profile and the video we made for you!

Girl meets boy, they fell in love, they got married, girl got sick and now they need your help… Hey there! We are I and T. Please let us say thank you for taking the time read our IP profile and shake your hand virtually for the first time (our dog Pepper will jump up and give you a virtual kiss).

Our story begins in 2015 thanks to Cupid—OkCupid, that is—where I messaged T first because of a fantastic jacket (yes, he still has the jacket). We fell in love, got married in September 2019, and enjoyed our favourite things in life: camping, cooking (we’re both huge foodies!), badminton, and board games.

We knew all along that we wanted to start a family. We would talk about it while we were dating and have names already picked out. But after years of trying, we consulted with our fertility doctor. As it turns out, Isrene had stage 3 cervical cancer at the age of 30. It fundamentally changed our plans, but we are strong and we don’t give up easily!

You, a person so generously and unselfishly willing to offer your assistance for people you don’t yet know, are already a saint in our eyes. We will always be open-minded and flexible and provide all the support you want and need throughout this journey. Whether it’s early afternoon or 3 a.m., you can always count on us! It would be our privilege to share every special moment with you, from first steps and first words to birthdays, graduations, and everything in-between. All of it.

We can’t image how difficult this decision is for you, choosing from so many deserving candidates. We want to wish you all the best on your surrogate journey, and we are grateful that you read our profile. We hope we would get the opportunity to have you as part of our journey. Thank you so much.

Our life in one question – what’s for dinner tonight?

Hey! This is Jeremy and Federico from Paris, and we hope you are up for a dinner date with us… and many more adventures! In this simple question (we genuinely ask each other all the time), we are not only saying that we love discovering new food, cooking special meals from our respective cultures – Federico is Italian and Jeremy is French. But we are also, and more importantly, describing what we imagine our family life to be like: moments of joy shared around a meal that we would have prepared and enjoyed all together.

We have been together for over 6 years; we met on a student night out and it was not meant to become a thing as we parted ways soon after to study in very different places. But that was only until Federico made the cutest phone declaration on the night of New Year’s Eve 2017 – from then we built a strong relationship from the UK to Montreal, stopping in San Francisco and now settling down in France closer to all our loved ones and with our little dog Riley.

Would you join our family? We believe it is about making long-term connections and opening our families to each other. We are very supported by our friends, brother, and sister as well as our parents who will be absolutely crazy about their grandchildren. We will support you and your family as much as possible every step of the way during the surrogacy process: joining appointments, ultrasounds and why not even planning trips before the birth. We are expert at time zone management, so we’ll always find time to videocall or WhatsApp you a picture of our latest nice meal, a family picture, or a silly pic of Riley!

We never imagined our life without children, and we strongly felt to take a step further and we dived into the surrogacy world to build our family. Why coming all the way to Canada though? Unfortunately, surrogacy is not legal in France and Federico loved his year in Montreal and has family living in Ottawa, while one of Jeremy’s best friends from Uni lives in Toronto. It just made so much sense to continue and embrace the Canadian culture and welcome our kids in this country. We’ve been supported during our journey by our fertility clinic staff in Vancouver, BC where we spent time during our egg donation cycle and had the opportunity to meet with our amazing egg donor Kendra and her partner. We are ready to take the next step when the time is right for you 😊

Dynamic Danish duo dreaming of life-changing collaboration with Courageous Canadian

And now that we have your attention, we are J and V, an awesome architect couple originally from Midtjylland, Denmark, the area where Tolkien got his inspiration for Middle Earth, and which shares absolutely no resemblance to the Lord of The Rings film trilogy. It is flat, windy and beautiful, and our upbringings were loving, adventurous and filled with dark, Danish humor, something we hope to pass on to our future child.

Since early on is our relationship, we have known that surrogacy would be a possible path for us to create the family we dreamed of together. J is born without a uterus, which means that she can’t carry a baby herself. J is lucky to still have ovaries, that produce eggs.
We are extremely humbled and at the same time excited by the fact that women, like you, create such hope and possibility for us to have a family, although J’s body has a small defect.

We think our families did a great job in creating a path for us to grow into two harmonious adults with an excellent flair for good design, which we take full advantage of in our jobs and when we go hunting for treasures in flea markets. We love the everyday life we have created together and like many others we have the dream of starting a family – we’re excited, scared and ready for the next step, and hope to find that special someone who will join us on this journey. And we hope that someone is you.

We are Joan and Xavi. We live in Andorra, a small country located in the middle of the Pyrenees, between Spain and France. Our country is beautiful, surrounded by nature, mountains, snow, fresh air, roads, lakes, Romanesque churches, and history, lots of history. But unfortunately, we are not lucky enough to have regulation about surrogacy, as in Canada. That is why we have traveled to you to make our dream come true.

We have turned to surrogacy, and therefore to you, in order to make our dream come true. Since we met more than four years ago, we both knew we wanted to create a family. We both grew up in homes where family is the most important thing. We can’t imagine a life where we don’t create a family as in the Andorran culture, family ties are strong, and children grow up surrounded by the love of extended family. We are surrounded by the noise of children all the time. We have many nephews, nieces, friends’ children, and whenever a pregnancy happens, we love to be a part of it. All these children would be a part of baby’s life.

Our wedding at the city hall in Paris, France. «Famille» = family = children. We didn’t know we would ever be able to get to this point as same sex marriage had been illegal in France. To be recognized as equals in the eyes of law with the right to married and have a family, that was our will, as any other French citizen.It was possible for us to create a family now wish to fulfill on the one piece missing. That is a child and to be parents. With that, let us help you get to know us a bit better, so when we do speak, we can genuinely connect and form a lifelong relationship with you, as this is our wish as well. JP and Arnaud = Our love story.

Being the youngest of the family, JP became an uncle at the age of 12 because his siblings had 9 children overall. Before it was possible to dream of having a family, we worked in professions where we could make an impact. JP through teaching students and Arnaud through nursing. It was one way towards acceptance. Tending to patients, caring for them and JP enthusiastically filling his students with knowledge. After everything changed, Arnaud’s desire was becoming crystal clear, to have a family. No one in his family had any children. From there, our mutual desire to have a child grew to where we are now, writing to you today.

We became excited at the idea of the new options available to us, talked to friends who had gone through the surrogacy process, opened our hearts to a child and decided to move forward choosing Canada as having a meaningful connection is important to us. Plus, we have a long relationship and love story with Canada, but for that you’ll need our whole profile!

Projecting ourselves in a possible life where our dreams may become true. A surrogate may choose us one day, maybe you will choose us, and a new family will blossom. A decision that will be a radical shift for us, starting a collaborative relationship and teamwork with you.

What is next?

What you will become in our family pattern is something we will build together, as a long-term relationship, just like ours. We are convinced that we will be good parents and able to bring support, care, health, and education to our child with a strong friendship community background to grow up in France. Some of our best friends who had their children, a few of them via surrogacy or in-vitro fertilization. By choosing us, we are certain that our story will not end there. We want to build this story with you in the long term, because we want to tell our child his/her/their story, our story including you and your commitment, kindness, and generosity.

We are looking for a smart independently minded woman who isn’t afraid to speak her mind and set us straight (pun not intended) when it comes to how best to bring a baby into the world. We are looking for a woman who knows her own mind and what she wants even when we, the pesky parents, doubt her intuition. We are looking for a woman who loves life and doesn’t get offended when we buy her increasingly larger clothes and tell her that yes her baby bump does look big in that! Above all, we are looking for a wonderful woman who rises above life’s challenges with a smile and a solid sense of humour… because we are determined that you are going to have a lot of fun with us for the next 9 months and beyond!

Hello, we are M&M. No, not the chocolate snack, but the couple who live in London and were born and raised in Japan and Scotland. To condense our story, it is a feat no less, but here goes. After everything we’ve been through it is family and family values that drive us to complete our family through a sibling journey. Hang tight, you may need a google map for this journey….

M.is an art and textile teacher at a secondary school in London. Teaching 11-18 years old and seeing them from cute gigglers, grumpy teenager phases and excellent young adult phases (in most cases) She loves planning lessons and it gives her fantastic feeling when students enjoy the experience. M. started his career as an English teacher in Japan but changed paths when he moved back to London and did an MBA along the way and is now an HR recruiter. He loves his job because he gets to speak to hundreds of interesting and talented people every year and has the opportunity to offer some of them life changing jobs, which is really rewarding.

We struggled to have a baby after we married in 2014 which led us through 6 IVF treatments before and during the pandemic. We finally decided that surrogacy was the best route for us to have a child and our precious baby was conceived with the help of our surrogate in Ukraine. We were due to travel to Kyiv when Russia started their horrifying invasion so we had to act quickly to be with our daughter when she was born. We travelled to the Ukrainian border to pick up our brave surrogate and her son to drive them to Romania where she could safely give birth and Baby M came into the world.

We would like to meet someone who we can go through this journey with for more than financial reasons because we also know that a surrogacy journey is not for just a surrogate and intended parents, it is a huge project that affects everyone around you. The reason we looked at Canada for our second child was that our friend introduced us to a couple who had their son with a Canadian surrogate. They had a very positive experience and are going to have their second child with the same person, and we think that Canadians, British and Japanese share similar values of support and respect, which will bond us along the way.

As all surrogacy babies are, Baby M was a special baby who has been loved so much long before her birth and she has received so many people’s help and love to come into the world. We are incredibly lucky to have her, and she brings unbelievable joy to every moment with us. Now we are hoping that she can grow along with her sibling like both of us did, if there is anyone who will kindly help us again. Thank you so much for even considering becoming someone’s surrogate. It is incredible that there are people like you to bring light to someone’s life again. Our first child’s story sounds extreme, but we want you to know us more as a family, a couple and individuals. We would love you to visit our profile and get to know us more and hope we have some opportunities to have conversation. Lots of love M&M&M.

Our love story is unique in the sense that we got to spend a majority of the first stages of our relationship during the pandemic lockdown. Being from different cities, this allowed us to spend every single day together when so many things were uncertain in the world. What remained certain was our love for each other and the mutual desire to have a family.

M is an Early Childhood Educator and has met so many funny, kind, and spirited children during his career as well as their families. S works for the federal government at the executive level making a difference in the ways to improve health and dental care across the country.

We are extremely grateful to whoever is reading this because it means that you are considering surrogacy and we would be over the moon excited if we had the chance to start our family because of you.

We would love the chance to get to know you more and discover our mutual quirks and qualities in common.

Hello! I’m a single, 35 year-old kindergarten teacher from Ontario. I spend my days providing children with a fun and creative environment to grow, but want so badly to bring that world home with me. I have always put others first, and made sure that everyone around me was taking care. Now it is finally time to put parenthood as a priority. There is only one dad here, but that does not mean there will not be another one day. However, the support system around me is so wonderful. My mom lives in my house and is so excited about the prospects of becoming a grandmother again. My sister, brother and friends are all there for me 100% and can’t wait to do all the fun activities that you realize you miss once you grow up. Creating a world of fun, love and wonder for a child is so exciting to think about. Our family is one that is very special to be part of.

In my research I’ve learned surrogacy in Canada is such an amazing opportunity. I have already met so many people that have gone through surrogacy or been a surrogate, and have seen surrogates in Canada are always in it because they genuinely want to help people become parents, and I know bringing someone like that into my life will be such a great experience.

Thank you for considering this path. You will make someone very happy. I hope that we get the opportunity to share more about our lives with each other

I am a fun person who enjoys being active. I sing, dance, kick box, bicycle, ski, skate, swim, play underwater hockey. I have a good moral compass and am willing to try anything that is whole-heartedly fun and life affirming. My friends, teachers, workers and people from all walks of life really enjoy my light and company as I do theirs. I love to share my life and believe that togetherness in any activity or experience is always best. Is it not what makes life experiences most memorable? I have a beautiful daughter through surrogacy and I have a wonderful relationship with my previous surrogate. I hope to have another amazing journey with a new woman who can join our family. My surrogate would be someone my children and I would always hold near and dear to our hearts. You are forever special to us and we are so grateful to have you in our lives.

We believe that this path of growing our family will create a strong bond between surrogate and intended parents. Since most people will never experience or understand surrogacy, it would make our incredible story so precious.

We enjoy entertaining our large family and friends and we would be honoured to have you be a part of our lives. There will be laughter, tears, pain, and joy but through it all we hope to make a lifelong friend in the process.  We realize that this gift of your body & mind can never be repaid but you will forever have love and gratitude from our family.
