Our Services
Gestational Surrogacy in Arizona is all we do. And our clients appreciate our dedication and resources.
Arizona Miracles’ network of reproductive specialists can assist you with all, or just part, of the complicated surrogacy process. Whether it’s helping you handle the legal and administrative requirements, finding the perfect qualified surrogate, coordinating the medical specialists that you’ll need, or providing emotional support, we’re here for you.
We offer a complimentary initial consultation to determine if surrogacy is the right choice for you based on your personal situation and your unique parenting objectives. We’ll explain in detail each step in the gestational surrogacy process and answer all of your questions. If you decide that surrogacy is a viable option, we can then assist you with specific facets of the process or be by your side every step of the way.
Our mission is to ensure that you are fully informed and emotionally prepared to start or grow your new family.
Arizona Miracles is dedicated to providing any and all services requested by our clients to help them in their quest to build a family. Our combined experience and knowledge enable us to perform any of the multitude of tasks associated with Gestational Surrogacy. You can participate as much or as little as you want of these activities, or we can, or we can work together. The decision is entirely yours.
Here are some of our services. These can be mixed and matched any way you see fit, or started and stopped during the process.
Overview and Backgrounder - This is an in-person session where, over several hours, we provide a detailed overview of the entire process from start to finish. Each phase is broken down to elemental levels to ensure you understand what is involved. We also provide tips, tricks and recommendations to ensure maximum success. If you live too far for in-person, we provide it over Zoom.
Planning - We will provide a customized plan for you. We start with multiple interviews. Using the results, we formulate a plan for the entire process, start-to-finish. This will be a step-by-step guide to help you accomplish your goal in the most efficient way possible with greatest odds of success. We will also provide a list of trusted business partners that we recommend for legal, medical and all other needs you will have. We will help and advise you at every step, through initial contact and surrogacy agreements through to delivery, transfer and closeout.
Ongoing Service - Once a plan is agreed upon, we schedule a 30-minute weekly meeting to check on status, resolve issues and plan for the week ahead.
Direct Management - If you have ever worked with a professional project manager, you may be familiar with this type of work. Instead of the plan described above, we deliver an actual project schedule, down to day-to-day activities. We will also perform issue resolution and risk analysis. The weekly meeting expands from 30 to 60 minutes, to cover all the open tasks, issues and risks.
Assistant - There is a mountain of paperwork involved in this process: contracts, parental rights, payment agreements, insurance, reimbursements, and more. We take on the responsibility of filling out those forms and delivering them where needed. Your role is just review, approvals, signatures and payments when needed. This will be a substantial time-saver. Additionally, our experience may help surface important items in the agreements that might have been overlooked.
Concierge - Intended Parents, Providers and Surrogate are often not located near each other physically. Travel and Lodging are almost always required multiple times during the process, We arrange all necessary travel and lodging – visits to providers, lodging as needed, housing for the surrogate, etc. as well as all required transportation. You can consider us to be your private Travel Agency for the duration of the process.
Agent - At the start of the process, you deposit a sum of money into a full insured escrow account to which we have payment access. Whenever a payment is required, we will make that payment for you, following review and approval. We accept the risk that unforeseen expenses may occur and, if so, absorb any losses.
Surrogate Search - There are a great many reputable, professional and trustworthy surrogacy agencies across the nation, and we have several of them as trusted partners. We also provide the same services ourselves. This is probably the most important person you’re going to work with in your entire life. You Just Cannot Get This Wrong! We will conduct a search nationwide for the right candidate. We will conduct a thorough vetting, including background checks, medical and psychological tests, and anything else needed. We also provide any support, physical or emotional, that the Surrogate may need during the process.
Doula - A doula provides emotional and physical support to the Surrogate before, during, and after her pregnancy and childbirth. Jerri Chance of our leadership team, who is an experienced surrogate herself, is also a trained and certified Doula. She can provide whatever type of support you and the surrogate may agree upon. This could include:
• Accompany and assist the surrogate during childbirth.
• Accompany surrogate to medical visits.
• Manage surrogate’s medications.
• Attend birthing classes with surrogate.
• Accompany and assist surrogate after birth for a period of time.
A doula is not necessarily required , but in some circumstances, could be a very important person. This would particularly true in the case where the surrogate does not have a support system of her own. In some cases, the surrogate may have a strong and supportive family or group of friends who will be with her to provide help and support when she needs them.
But often the surrogate could be a person in more difficult personal circumstances. The surrogacy process is long, complicated, difficult and not without risk. Asking someone to go through this alone is asking a lot. The offering of a doula could be the deciding factor for a surrogate who is being approached by multiple IP’s.
Other Services - we will provide or recommend a provider for any other services you may want or that we suggest you may need. It could be anything from specialized financial lenders to breast milk shipping or a professional nutritionist/exercise coach for the surrogate. Just name it, and we'll find it for you. We haven't been stumped yet.
