The Surrogacy Father

Supporting You On Your Surrogacy Journey

The Surrogacy Father is Europe’s leading independent surrogacy consultancy, founded by Shaun Thomas, a gay dad from the UK who built his family through surrogacy and egg donation. After navigating the challenges of international surrogacy himself, Shaun created The Surrogacy Father to provide clear, impartial, and experience-based guidance to individuals and couples considering this path to parenthood.

Unlike agencies, clinics, or law firms, The Surrogacy Father is completely independent. This means intended parents receive honest, unbiased advice—free from the pressure of being steered toward a particular destination, programme, or provider.

Ethical Surrogacy. Clear Advice. No Agenda.

The Surrogacy Father supports intended parents across the UK, Europe, and globally with:

  • Country-by-country insights on surrogacy laws, costs, timelines, and processes.

  • Comparisons of domestic and international surrogacy options.

  • Practical guidance on egg donation, surrogate matching, contracts, travel, and birth planning.

  • Special considerations for LGBTQ+ parents, single parents, and older intended parents.

  • Personal support, based on Shaun’s lived experience as a three-time surrogacy parent.
