We are happy to supports two mums undertaking a surrogacy journey, however it is a rarity. If you are conceiving a child together and one of you is carrying the other's biological child with you both intending to be parents, that is co-maternity or shared motherhood rather than surrogacy or egg donation (despite what some fertility clinics may call it).
Brilliant Beginnings helps intended parents opting for surrogacy, whether in the UK or internationally, to find the route so they can complete their family.
If you are two mums in the early stages of looking at surrogacy, then an Options Review meeting can help you to get to grips with the legalities, practicalities and key considerations that go along with surrogacy.
Our Options Review meetings cover:
An Options Review meeting will last around 2 hours and is priced at £500 plus VAT. This includes a detailed letter which we will send to you after you meeting detailed everything we’ve discussed.
We have offices in London and Burgate where we can meet for a face to face meeting, or if you prefer we are able to carry out these discussions over the phone, via Skype or Facetime.
In our role as your surrogacy agency, we will act as your sounding board for your concerns and queries. We will also be able to raise the key considerations you need to be aware of as same-sex intended parents. from which clinic to choose, to how to ensure you have parental rights for you child.
Our matching and management process is a fully comprehensive one, taking you through the initial discussions to meeting your surrogate, on to pregnancy and birth. Depending on where you are undertaking surrogacy, how we support you will vary, but rest assured you’ll never be left wondering what comes next.

Brilliant Beginnings only works with countries where there is a good foundational system for surrogacy. Although surrogacy is available in many countries, we only operate in the UK, US and Canada.
Surrogacy is completely legal in the UK, but the systems are not yet ideal for simple surrogacy. It means that having a trusting and open relationship with your surrogate is of paramount importance, and this is where Brilliant Beginnings can help.
Our bespoke matching and management service in the UK ensures that you have a great relationship with your surrogate, that suits both parties, and which makes your surrogacy journey a happy and fulfilling one.
Additionally, we are able to support surrogacy arrangements with friend or family member who is acting as your surrogate.
