About Baby Miracles, Inc. ("BMI")

Baby Miracles, Inc. ("BMI"), located in North San Diego County, California, was started in June 1999, at a time when there were only a handful of agencies in California and there was a need for an economical alternative for couples looking for a professional yet caring agency to help them to become parents with the assistance of an egg donor and/or surrogate mother. While the opportunity has presented itself over the years to grow BMI into a national company, we have elected to restrict growth in order to remain personal. All of our staff have, themselves, been involved in egg donation and/or surrogacy and exhibited a dedication and commitment to our clients and fertility assistants having a positive and rewarding experience throughout their journey.

BMI holds an A rating with the Better Business Bureau of San Diego and adheres to the guidelines for professionals set forth by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine ("ASRM"), which dictates appropriate practices and policies of agencies and professionals associated with third-party assisted reproduction.

Brandi Martinez, Post-Partum Doula

Pregnancy, birth and newborns have always been passions of mine. Becoming a parent is one of life's most special experiences and helping families adjust during the early days of parenthood is one of my greatest pleasures. I truly love being a doula, which means many things to me: sometimes it's being a teacher, sometimes an extra pair of hands, and sometimes it means just being a good friend. I have extensive experience with preemies and multiples, having had twins myself! Surrogacy has a very special place in my heart as I have had the honor of helping complete three families in this most special way. I very much look forward to meeting you and helping you during this wonderful time.
