Hello and Welcome to Surrogacy in Canada Online. Since 2001 we have provided information, referral and support to Canadians involved with Third Party Reproduction.
Surrogacy in Canada is a legal, successful and wonderful alternative for those who have had difficulty creating a family on their own. A great experience depends on trust, understanding, good communication and respect for all the parties that can be involved. Intimate and emotional, this journey should be well researched and prepared for. It can be a very rewarding experience for Surrogate Mothers and is often the only option for an infertile couple to have their own genetically related child. At Surrogacy in Canada Online, we believe every person has a right to become a parent via Third Party Reproduction regardless of their ethnic origin, religion, age, marital status or sexual orientation.
Surrogacy in Canada Online is owned and operated by Sally Rhoads, an experienced Gestational Surrogate Mother and one of the most knowledgeable individuals in the field of Third Party Reproduction in Canada. Sally has been involved with surrogacy in Canada since 1999 and delivered twins for an American couple in 2000. This website was originally created during the surrogacy pregnancy as a journal for the Intended Parents and their families to keep in touch and it has since grown into what you see today. The journal is still available for viewing, as well as photo updates of the twins as they grow up.
It is our hopes, that this site can help guide and support those who are considering (or experiencing) this family building alternative. Contact us today for an application package if you are thinking about becoming a surrogate mother or are interested in our services to assist you with your surrogacy arrangement.
