Mothers First Surrogacy is a for-profit matching and consulting service built around prospective gestational surrogates. Rather than managing journeys itself, it educates and screens women who are considering surrogacy and then refers them to partner agencies. The agency says this guidance is offered to surrogates at no cost, and it describes itself as a company designed for surrogates by surrogates.
The founder and chief executive is Tonia Rivera, who is described as a two-time surrogate and a DONA-certified birth doula. The organization presents itself as a trusted advisor offering concierge-style management, and its public Facebook page is categorized as a consulting agency. It appears to be a small operation.
Because the program works through partner agencies, a surrogate's day-to-day case management, legal work, escrow and medical coordination would typically sit with the agency she is ultimately matched to. Mothers First Surrogacy's own role centers on the earlier steps: answering questions about what surrogacy involves, initial screening, and helping a candidate consider which agency to work with.
