About Us


VIVO Surrogacy is a full-service Surrogacy Agency based in sunny Orange County, California.

Our central mission is to help couples and individuals have the families they long for using gestational surrogacy. We act as matchmakers and we help parents and surrogates navigate the surrogacy journey.  From surrogate screening and matching, to coordination and management of services (and more!),  VIVO Surrogacy has you covered. We are known for our successful matching process, our years of fertility expertise, and our unparalleled dedication to the physical and emotional welfare of both our surrogates and intended parents. 

A healthy surrogate pregnancy is the clearest metric of success; however, we here at VIVO Surrogacy feel that in order to be truly successful, the surrogacy journey must also be a joyful one. To achieve this, we focus a great deal of time and energy on matching intended parents and surrogates because, in our experience, the compatibility of the intended parent and surrogates is crucial for a fulfilling surrogacy experience. Then, to make the remainder of the journey as smooth and stress-free as possible, we offer a wide-range of in-house services and carefully curated referrals to assist with IVF, legal guidance, medical appointments, health maintenance, and various other support services. Our start-to-finish personalized attention ensures that our intended parents and surrogates always feel heard, supported, and comfortable. 

VIVO Surrogacy helps create families all across the United States.  We welcome families and individuals regardless of marital status, race, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity!

Angela Zamora

RN, MSN, NP

FOUNDER

Angela Zamora has been a nurse since 2000 and from 2012-2018, she worked as the lead Third Party IVF Coordinator at a thriving fertility practice. But just as importantly, she herself has experienced what it is like to struggle with fertility issues and sought reproductive technology to build her family. She now has two very busy sons and she wants other people to have their own success stories.

Our clients rave about Angela’s knowledge, communication skills, and proactive attitude. They not only benefit from her attention to detail and expertise, but they also know that they can turn to her for emotional support. From her own experience, she understands the emotional toll that fertility treatments can take and she aims to demystify the process, while also giving her clients the support they will need on their road to parenthood. She considers it an honor to work directly with intended parents, surrogates, and egg donors and she feels a personal connection to all of her cases.
