Jaclyn, American Intended Parent in Fort Lee, New Jersey, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

I have a mild heart condition that is controlled with medication. My cardiologist and a high risk obgyn both told me that it isn't safe for me to carry a baby with my condition.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

Hi. My name is Jaclyn. I am a speech therapist working in a school with children ages Pre-K through 8th grade. I love helping people in any way that I can. I also love animals, especially my cat Remmy. In my free time I like to play Scrabble, walk in nature, listen to music, and spending time with family. Jason loves writing music, playing guitar,reading,and spending time with family including our sweet and sassy cat Remmy.

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

Dear Future Surrogate, Jason and I love children so much. We want to have a baby more than anything in this world but unfortunately it isn't safe for me to carry. We would be forever grateful to you for helping us to build our family. There is love more profound than that between a parent and child. I know this because of the deep,loving bond that I have with my parents. Jason and I would always treasure the role you played in bringing our baby to us. That is the most precious gift that anyone can give. Love, Jaclyn and Jason
