      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Michal &amp;amp; Miloš - For Michal and Miloš, the relationship with their surrogate is just as important as the journey itself. They hope to build a friendship based on trust, honesty, empathy, and open communication. Although they live internationally, they plan to travel to Canada during the pregnancy whenever possible and would love to be present for the birth if their surrogate is comfortable. They hope the relationship continues long after their baby is born, with regular updates, visits, and a lifelong connection. To them, their surrogate will always be a cherished part of their family's story. Outside of medicine, they enjoy an active and balanced lifestyle. During the warmer months, you'll often find them running or at the gym, while winter evenings are spent rewatching Harry Potter or strolling through the fairy-tale streets of snow-covered Olomouc. Michal enjoys building LEGO sets, reading, playing video games, and cheering on his favourite NHL teams, while Miloš enjoys gardening at his parents' home and watching documentaries about history and architecture. Together, they also love travelling and look forward to sharing their adventures with their future children.</image:title>

She looks forward to sharing everything from family traditions and holiday celebrations to everyday moments, watching her child discover the world around them and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Jennifer &amp;amp; Brad - If distance allows, Jennifer and Brad would love to attend prenatal appointments and be present for as much of the pregnancy as possible. They understand that pregnancy comes with both excitement and uncertainty, especially after experiencing pregnancy loss, so regular communication and updates are something they deeply appreciate. More than anything, they hope both their surrogate and baby remain healthy throughout the journey. When they're not working, Jennifer and Brad love making memories together. Whether they're taking road trips through the mountains, exploring the Oregon Coast, travelling somewhere tropical, attending concerts or hockey games, or simply spending time with family and friends, they find joy in life's shared experiences. Hockey season brings a little friendly rivalry to their home, with Brad cheering passionately for the Edmonton Oilers while Jennifer proudly supports the Vancouver Canucks. Their kitchen is truly the heart of their home. Jennifer loves cooking homemade meals while Brad happily joins as her sous-chef, and together they enjoy making fresh pasta, baking, and hosting gatherings filled with laughter and great conversation. They also love tackling home renovation projects, caring for their home, and spending cozy evenings on the couch with their beloved dogs, Teddy and Piper, who became cherished members of their family during some of life's most difficult moments.</image:title>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Jennifer &amp;amp; Brad - Jennifer and Brad credit much of their strength to the lessons they've learned through grief. Therapy has taught them to focus on what they can control, what they can influence, and what they must let go. Through every challenge, they have leaned on open communication, unwavering respect, and the deep friendship that has been the foundation of their relationship since they first met in 2001. Married for over two decades, they continue to face every obstacle as a team. Living in Okotoks offers them everything they hoped for in a place to raise a family. Surrounded by nature, close to the mountains, lakes, and parks, yet only a short drive from Calgary, they love the strong sense of community and the countless opportunities for outdoor adventures and family life. Jennifer and Brad cannot wait to experience the simple, beautiful moments of parenthood that so many people take for granted—the first cuddle, bedtime stories, family vacations, scraped knees, birthday celebrations, and watching their child grow into the person they're meant to become. Above all else, they look forward to one day telling their child the incredible story of how they came into the world, surrounded by extraordinary love, incredible resilience, and the selfless generosity of a surrogate who helped make their greatest dream come true.</image:title>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Dacien &amp;amp; Shaun - Dacien and Shaun live in Waterloo, a vibrant inner-city suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, where they’ve built a life centered on love, intention, and community. Shaun works as a Quick Service Restaurant Area Manager, while Dacien is a Head of Technical Services and Production Operations Specialist. Together, they balance busy professional lives with a deep commitment to family, connection, and the future they are building side by side. As a same-sex couple, Dacien and Shaun have always known that surrogacy would play a meaningful role in bringing their family to life. Their journey began with finding one another and committing to a shared forever. Now, they are preparing to welcome the next chapter—parenthood—with open hearts and immense gratitude. They are overjoyed to be expecting their first child in June 2025, a milestone made even more special by the presence of a close family friend from Sydney who is living with them throughout the pregnancy. Her generosity has allowed Dacien and Shaun to experience this journey in person, creating moments they will cherish forever. From the very beginning, Dacien and Shaun envisioned a family with two children. As they look ahead, they are excited that their sibling journey will take place in Canada, where the surrogacy process and support systems align closely with their values. They hope to connect with someone who shares their passion for building a loving, respectful, and supportive environment—someone who will help them bring their vision of family to life with care and mutual trust.</image:title>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Dacien &amp;amp; Shaun - Family plays a central role in their lives. Living just 15 minutes from Dacien’s family, including his grandmother and aunt who helped raise him, allows for regular weekly catch-ups filled with love, laughter, and shared history. Shaun’s family, based in Queensland, remains just as close despite the distance. Frequent video calls and regular visits for holidays and special occasions ensure those bonds remain strong. As the youngest of three siblings, Shaun is surrounded by the joyful energy of nieces and nephews, with five children between his brother and sister. Outside of work, Dacien and Shaun cherish their daily routines and quiet moments together. Shaun is an early riser who enjoys starting his day with a gym session or a run, followed by a morning walk with their beloved dog, Boost, a 14-year-old mastiff cross staffy who is very much part of the family. Weekends often include park runs with friends, leisurely walks through nearby green spaces, or relaxing mornings at home.</image:title>
      <image:caption>They also enjoy unwinding with their favorite television shows, including Survivor, The Challenge, Below Deck, and RuPaul’s Drag Race—while Shaun proudly claims Judge Judy as his ultimate guilty pleasure. Travel has long been a shared joy, with many memorable cruises taken alongside family, and they look forward to creating even more meaningful experiences together in the years to come. Sydney provides the perfect backdrop for their growing family. With two large parks just steps from home, easy access to the city’s cultural life, and scenic weekend drives to places like the Blue Mountains, Dacien and Shaun feel incredibly fortunate to live in a place that supports both adventure and connection.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Jeff &amp;amp; Justin - Our Interests &amp; Everyday Life Justin: In my free time, I love spending time with Jeff — working on home projects, caring for Luna, or exploring the outdoors. We’re both dedicated to fitness and train together at our local CrossFit gym 4–5 times per week. We enjoy trying new restaurants around Vancouver, relaxing at home with Netflix, and spending time with family. I also play volleyball and enjoy online games with friends and relatives. Jeff: I start most mornings with yoga — a daily practice that grounds me. I also love running twice a week, which gives me space to think, plan, and recharge. Cooking is another passion, and I enjoy researching new recipes to make for us. When I have extra time, I read or listen to political discussions and current events. Staying informed is important to me.</image:title>

      <image:caption>Our Dream of Becoming Parents From the very first day we met, we talked about our future — and family was always at the heart of it. Both of us knew from a young age that becoming parents would be challenging for us, but it never stopped us from dreaming. Over the years, that dream has grown stronger. We envision a home filled with love, learning, laughter, and the kind of support we were both lucky to receive from our families. We’re excited and hopeful for the journey ahead, and we look forward to growing our family with the same love, commitment, and joy that have shaped our life together.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Mervin &amp;amp; Daniel - We’re Mervin and Daniel, partners for ten years and currently living in Melbourne, Australia. We first met online, but our real story began on a Saturday morning in a small café — the kind of warm, ordinary moment that ended up changing both our lives. Our home is shared with Theo, our affectionate six-year-old tuxedo cat, who believes he runs the household. We love hosting dinners with friends, but we’re just as happy spending quiet evenings on the couch with Theo curled between us.</image:title>
      <image:caption>We come from families who have shown us the meaning of love, support, and resilience. Their example has shaped the kind of parents we hope to be.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Intended Parents CMS (blog setup) - Mervin &amp;amp; Daniel - Daniel loves baking and reading, especially fantasy novels. Merv collects old typewriters, enjoys running, and aims to write one handwritten letter every week. Together, we balance each other in all the best ways.</image:title>
      <image:caption>For the past eight years, we’ve been working toward building our family. We’ve learned so much about adoption, permanent care, and surrogacy in Australia. After years of training, applications, interviews, and reflection, we chose surrogacy — the path that feels right for us. We’ve both always wanted to be parents, even before we met; when we found each other, that dream only grew stronger. We’re excited, hopeful, and deeply grateful to be taking these next steps toward becoming dads.</image:caption>
