Family Building via Surrogacy and Egg Donation
Baby Bites provides an opportunity for hopeful parents like yourself to be guided through your family building plans by a panel of experts and some who have been where you are as an intended parent!
Congratulations on taking one of the first steps in pursuing your dream of parenthood! Surrogacy and egg donation has made it possible for multitudes of deserving people worldwide to become parents. As a former Intended Parent herself, our Founder & CEO, Staci Swiderski, knows how incredibly fortunate we are to live in an age where this option is possible! So many of our staff have walked in your shoes and are uniquely qualified to share this journey with you.
As you start on this incredible journey, you are likely experiencing a gamut of emotions – fear and doubt – yet excitement and hope. You have many choices before you and many decisions to make. At Family Source, we understand the challenges you face on your path to parenthood. Our expert team has the experience and knowledge to guide you every step of the way; in fact, approximately 85% of our staff have struggled with fertility, been an intended parent, surrogate, or egg donor. In addition, we have aligned ourselves with world-renowned family building partners to ensure your family building journey is as smooth as possible and alleviate any stresses you may encounter. It is our mission to help make your journey a positive and fulfilling experience for everyone involved.
This professional seminar is dedicated to exploring options for family expansion through surrogacy and egg donation.
