Creating families through surrogacy

A huge thank you for all your invaluable help and advice, for being with us every step of the way and helping us bring our daughter into the world. What an amazing journey it’s been!

You certain lived up to your name! From the moment I contacted you to meeting my baby I have felt helped and supported. The right information and advice was offered at each stage and in such a friendly and supportive way that I felt part of a family before mine had actually become a reality.

You helped us through the entire process of creating our family. From very early discussions to matching us with a surrogate right through to the parental order process, we always felt safe in your hands.

From the very first meeting at your offices in London you made us feel completely at ease.

I had such a useful meeting with you, with lots of information in a comfortable and friendly environment.

We found our meeting extremely helpful. We covered a lot of ground and you gave us such a detailed overview of the potential paths ahead and how we might make a start. Thank you.

You were extremely knowledgeable about every facet of the process, giving us a lot of information and answering all our many and varied questions!

Thank you all at Brilliant Beginnings for guiding and support me so well through what turned out to be a truly wonderful American surrogacy.

A huge thank you for all your invaluable help and advice, for being with us every step of the way and helping us bring our daughter into the world. What an amazing journey it’s been!

There are no words that can express our depth of gratitude for your expert help, kindness, patience and support in bringing our baby into the world. 

The people and organisations you have introduced us to and your advice has been exceptional. It has been a hard journey to get here but we are so happy. We literally just can’t imagine how it would have been without Brilliant Beginnings and NGA.

We have a great team. We like and trust all of you a huge amount. Thanks for being there.

I have a friend who would like to go through the [US surrogacy] journey we did. I shared with her our wonderful experience with you and your team, and how safe and guided we felt.

Thank you as always for all your help and support – it’s been invaluable and is much appreciated.

Just wanted to say thank you for all your support for my surrogacy journey – the most complex part is building professional ties and it’s your support in managing this as well as the processes that has been invaluable. It is NOT an overstatement to say that I could not have managed this remotely without you.

When it came to drawing up a surrogacy agreement Brilliant Beginnings spent many hours with us and our surrogate, making sure we covered every conceivable scenario, which became invaluable throughout the pregnancy.

We felt safe in your hands – always professional with a rich wealth of knowledge we would have been lost without.

 I love that we are going into the new phase post-birth with an extra aunty for our daughter in the shape of [our surrogate] and the absolute joy of knowing we did this as a team. Thank you for your huge part in that!

I feel like the luckiest Daddy alive. Thank you for all your amazing efforts to make this happen for me.

Thanks again for all your support and guidance this year, and getting us to where we are. We are very appreciative and it’s been lovely getting to know you.

This Christmas is certainly going to be different! Thank you for all your help and support this year – we’re so grateful to you and the team.

I rate Brilliant Beginnings for their attention to detail, matching skills and support. If becoming a surrogate is something you are considering I would highly recommend them.

I chose Brilliant Beginnings because you just ‘got me’. You understood my priorities and were respectful of me and my family set up.

Thank you so much, and honestly your support has been amazing!!!

The way you use profiling to match intended parents to potential surrogates is unique and second to none. I have been matched with two couples, on two different surrogacy journeys, with you now and cannot thank you enough for the amazing friendships I have developed with both couples.

I honestly couldn’t have done it without you as part of BB and the support you’ve given and continue to give. You totally understand my feelings and the whole surrogacy process.

I wouldn’t go anywhere else to be a surrogate!

When they we we have found you a ‘match’ I honestly don’t think you could have found a better one. My intended parents are the most sweet, caring and honest couple and I cannot explain how happy I am for all your hard work as a team. 

I know this is your job but seeing the enthusiasm and excitement you take in matching me as a surrogate makes me feel important and excited.

I received my intended parents’ profile today and have had a very emotional night reading all about them. They are everything I pictured and more, and it’s surreal how similar we are. I cannot wait to get to know them.

I was sceptical about the psychological evaluation but Jerome is very thorough and good at reading people. The report he built about me was spot on and I have taken his suggestions and concerns and made sure they are covered with my surrogacy journey.

Knowing that I had the full support of Brilliant Beginnings, an agency that truly stood up to all its worth and continued to support me and welcomed me into their hearts, was a true bonus.

We didn’t know where to start, but it was so reassuring to sit down with the team and know we had everything covered.

You helped us work through our agreement in tons of detail. We thought about issues we had completely missed! 

Our fertility clinic loved the fact that we were so well prepared and that we had had legal advice too.

Thank you for all your encouragement, advice, help and support along the way. It’s been incredible.

We are really pleased with the rapport and support we have with you.

It has been a pleasure to work with all of you. If only everyone in the journey had been as kind and organised as all of you at Brilliant Beginnings and NGA!

We are so grateful for all your help and guidance. I’m sure we’ll be in touch in the future when we embark on surrogacy journey number two.

You have just been absolutely amazing throughout and we feel incredibly lucky to have discovered your companies. Thank you so much for setting them up in the first place.

We got there, so thank you to BB and NGA Law! A really smooth process and we are very grateful to the team.

I am sending this to you as I will never forget your part in bringing [my daughter] into my life, and I just wanted to thank you again for what you do. She is truly a priceless treasure and I will forever be grateful for your help in making my family feel complete. Best wishes for 2025 and I hope you keep on helping intended parents like me to feel the joy of parenting.

Thank you so much for your heartfelt message. It truly means a lot to me, and I can’t express how grateful I am for all the support and encouragement you’ve provided throughout this journey. Your kind words and well wishes have given me even more strength and optimism as we move forward. Thank you again for your kindness and for keeping everything crossed for us – it means the world.

And thank you so very much for your time yesterday morning – I can’t tell you how grateful we are to you for answering all our questions with such care and kindness.

Thank you for holding our hands today, the most wonderful dream coming true and all the kindness you have all shown throughout. My incredible and most memborable days (in no particular order) are:

Marrying A

B’s birth

Parental order

I never thought I would be so emotionally charged, nor did our family. What a journey and a day it’s been. So grateful for everything.

BB helped us with an international surrogacy in the USA. It seemed so daunting and overwhelming in the beginning, but each step was handled so well that it didn’t feel at all daunting as we were moving through the process as everything was explained so well from the big questions down to the tiny ones. We were introduced to everyone we needed to make the journey smooth, but more than that BB stayed involved to ensure everything moved along. Everyone on the recommended list has been pre-vetted so you know you are in safe hands. Without their help, support and guidance, I would not be sat here writing this with a much-loved, long-awaited and gorgeous baby in my lap.

To potential intended parents who are considering surrogacy, I can’t help with that huge decision but I can without any hesitancy say that if you decide to go ahead, you will be so happy you chose Brilliant Beginnings.
