Why choose ARTparenting?

 ARTparenting’s founder, Meryl B. Rosenberg, Esq., has worked with hundreds of gestational surrogates and intended parents since 1993. Integrity, personal attention, and hands-on guidance are our hallmarks. Meryl has a well-established reputation in the field of reproductive law and volunteers her time to further the development of assisted reproductive law. We ensure that every surrogate and intended parent are fully supported throughout the process — from the match to the birth of the child. Read what others have said about ARTparenting. Meet Meryl Rosenberg.

A central feature of our program is the focus we place on the matches we make between the parents and the gestational surrogates. Each surrogate is closely consulted about who she would most like to help — whether she prefers to work with intended parents who live locally or overseas, families that already have a child, same-sex couples, or if she has another preference.
