Our team-based approach to case management provides the security that comes from having support when it\u2019s needed. Additionally, our clients benefit from having three staff members, each with their own specialty, up-to-date on their journey at all times. As a smaller agency, we are able to focus on the individual needs of each client so that they may enjoy the journey in the best way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We believe that effective communication is a must in our line of work. Building a family when faced with fertility obstacles can be complicated and there are often many moving parts. Intended parents have much to research and plan for; in this field, it is our responsibility to give them the right information and collaborate with their other providers to make their dream a reality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color\" style=\"color:#1d4664;border-radius:10px\">View the agency&#8217;s surrogates<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#1d4664\"><strong>The story<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our co-founder, Brie Powers, served as a surrogate for two families before opening Heartland Surrogacy. She was interested in working with an agency local to her, but there was none in Iowa at the time. She was motivated to offer support to local surrogates and intended parents. Moreover, running an agency allowed her to continue to help build more families after she completed her journeys as a surrogate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of our intended parents have the same goal of building their family, but they are all so different. In the end, it is not the details of each story but what our clients have taught us that sticks in our memory. From those entering a journey in the midst of their grief, we have learned to listen for the cues that tell us how to best support them. From parents that involve their village in this process, we have learned the unique opportunities we have in being a part of someone\u2019s story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monica-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1302\" width=\"410\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monica-3.jpg 410w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monica-3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monica-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monica-3-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><figcaption>Co-founders, Brie Powers &amp; Monica Villa, have unique perspectives that help build beautiful families<br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#1d4664\"><strong>My tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When they begin their research into surrogacy, we recommend that intended parents review their finances to determine if they are at a good place to begin a journey. Although the <a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/parenting\/the-cost-of-surrogacy-and-where-you-can-save\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">total cost of a surrogacy journey<\/a> can be estimated for a best-case scenario, there are many variables that change the full amount. Parents will need to have a buffer in case of any unforeseen expenses. Also, while the surrogate\u2019s base compensation will be paid out in instalments throughout the pregnancy, it will need to be in an escrow account at the time that contracts are signed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, as a surrogacy agency we understand that we are biased in regard to independent journeys. However, we feel that our role as mediators and managers is invaluable in such a large endeavour. Most organized people can <a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/parenting\/the-surrogacy-journey-roadmap-step-by-step\">carry <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/parenting\/the-surrogacy-journey-roadmap-step-by-step\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">out<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/parenting\/the-surrogacy-journey-roadmap-step-by-step\"> the process successfully<\/a>. But as with most things in life, you don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know. That\u2019s where we come in, as well as for those small hiccups that can get out of hand if not handled appropriately.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We highly recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/surrogacy\/the-role-of-a-surrogacy-agency\">use <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/surrogacy\/the-role-of-a-surrogacy-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">of<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/surrogacy\/the-role-of-a-surrogacy-agency\"> an agency<\/a> instead of managing the journey <a href=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/parenting\/with-or-without-an-agency-which-surrogacy-is-better\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">independently.<\/a> There are many ways that an independent route can increase cost and risk, and add unnecessary stress. Surrogacy is complex in and of itself; it\u2019s best to avoid additional work if at all possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monicas-family.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1315\" width=\"442\" height=\"442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monicas-family.png 589w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monicas-family-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monicas-family-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/expecting.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Monicas-family-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 442px) 100vw, 442px\" \/><figcaption>Monica&#8217;s husband Eric and their kids &#8211; Lilia &amp; West<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#1d4664\"><strong>Present and future<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the moment, while vaccination rates increase and we see some return to normal life, there are fewer surrogates available than before.
