Hey there, we're
Brad & Jack

And we're looking for a surrogate to help us become parents.

Thank you for your support on this journey! Whether you're here to share, learn, or explore, we so appreciate your time!

About us

We work together, run marathons together, and have a shared obsession with finding the city's best breakfast sandwich.

We're the couple who stayed in San Francisco until we couldn't justify the rent anymore, moved to Philadelphia to be near family, and have spent the last few years building the kind of life we want to bring a child into.

We work together, run marathons together, and have a shared obsession with finding the city's best breakfast sandwich. Jack plans our adventures; I build things with my hands. We're different enough to balance each other out, similar enough that we just work.

Why we're ready

Jack and I have talked about this for years, and we're at the point where we're ready.

I've wanted to be a parent since I was a teenager babysitting neighborhood kids. There's something about watching a child figure out the world—the questions they ask, the way they tackle challenges, how fully themselves they are—that's always brought me joy.

Jack and I have talked about this for years, and we're at the point where we're ready: financially stable, emotionally prepared, and excited about who we'll be as parents.

We imagine raising a curious, creative kid who gets to experience Jack's encyclopedic knowledge of music and culture alongside my love of building, creating, and exploring imagination.

Working with us

We want a real relationship with you, not a transaction.

Here's what that means to us:

Staying in touch throughout the pregnancy—attending key appointments (we'll travel to you for the important ones), checking in regularly to make sure you're doing well, being responsive when you need us
Sharing voice recordings so the baby can hear us
FaceTime for routine appointments if distance is an issue
Being present in whatever way makes sense for both of us

After birth, we're open to whatever feels right. If we connect and you want updates and occasional visits, we'd love that. If you'd prefer more defined boundaries, we respect that completely. This is your decision as much as ours.

Where we're at

We want a genuine relationship with whoever helps us become parents.

We're working with Mainline Fertility in Philadelphia. We've selected an egg donor and we're creating embryos next month. We've already consulted with a reproductive attorney to make sure everything is done right.

We decided against using an agency because we wanted more control over the process and the chance to build a genuine relationship with whoever helps us become parents.

If you're interested

If our story resonates, we'd love to talk.

We're open to working with someone anywhere in the continental US, whether you've done this before or this would be your first time.

What matters most is finding someone we genuinely connect with. If our story resonates, we'd love to talk.
