History

Established in 1998.

Darlene and her husband Tom went through their own experience with IVF and surrogacy in 1990. Their genetic daughter, Kaitlin, was conceived in vitro from Darlene’s ovum and Tom’s sperm, but carried by a gestational surrogate – Kaitlin’s Aunt Judy, Tom’s sister.

Although Darlene was genetically Kaitlin’s mother, the California State Health Department wanted to list Tom’s sister as Kaitlin’s mother on the birth certificate, insisting that Darlene legally adopt Kaitlin later. As a result, Tom obtained the first surrogate paternity judgment through the San Diego Courts which ordered the health department to list Darlene as the mother on Kaitlin’s original birth certificate. This ruling set a precedent for all subsequent surrogacy cases in San Diego.

This experience eventually gave birth to «A Perfect Match Egg Donation and Gestational Surrogacy Agency” – owned by Darlene and Tom, operated by Darlene since 1998, and specializing in egg donation and gestational surrogacy services.

Meet the Business Owner

Darlene P.

Business Owner

Following her own experience as a parent through surrogacy in 1990, Darlene first coordinated the legal and contractual aspects of donation and surrogacy – before beginning in 1998 to successfully connect clients with just the right egg donors or surrogates, and doing it with absolute confidentiality.

Darlene has appeared on Today, on CNN and MSNBC programs, on the BBC documentary «Modern Times: The Price of Eggs», and on other television and radio programs. She has been interviewed for articles in The New Yorker, Newsweek, and Self, among other magazines and newspapers.

She is the mother of Kaitlin born through surrogacy in 1990 (a UCLA grad and USC Masters) and 44-​year-​old Ty who graduated from USC and has a Master’s degree and who is the longest living person to receive a lung from a living donor… Darlene! (–but that’s another story)

Darlene has a true passion for helping any person who has a desire to become a parent through egg donation and surrogacy.
