About Via Parentis
Via Parentis is a privacy-first family-building agency. We guide intended parents, donors, surrogates, and co-parents through curated matching and coordination—without public profiles, without browsing people, and with mediated communication at every step.
Get Started is free. Fees apply only if you choose to unlock curated matches or commission a targeted search.
No public profiles. No swiping. No in-app messaging. All communication is mediated.
Via Parentis is not a clinic and not a law firm. We do not provide medical or legal advice.
Our mission
We exist to guide people through the complexities of family building with clarity, discretion, and respect. Our goal is to reduce uncertainty, protect privacy, and facilitate meaningful connections—without the noise and exposure of open directories.
Our approach
Guided intake
We begin with a structured intake that captures what you need without asking you to browse people or profiles.
Mediation and controlled disclosure
All communication is mediated. We share information progressively through controlled disclosure, respecting consent at every step.
Screening and curation
We screen candidates and prepare structured briefs. You receive curated options, not raw listings.
Two-stage Find journey
Find services follow a two-stage journey: free intake first, then unlock curated matches or commission a targeted search based on availability.

Adoption Guidance is referral-based coordination only. It is not a matching service and not legal advice.

Privacy and consent
Privacy is foundational to our service. We do not expose your information publicly. There are no browsable profiles or open directories.
We share information progressively through controlled disclosure. Each step requires explicit consent from both parties.
You control what is shared and when. We explain each step before it happens.
We collect only what is needed for the service. We do not sell your data or share it beyond what is necessary for the process.
Partners and referrals
We work with clinics, legal professionals, and other specialists to support your journey. Our role is coordination and referral, not direct service provision.
We are not a clinic. We do not provide medical treatment or medical advice. Clinic services are provided by qualified third parties.
We are not a law firm. We do not provide legal advice or legal representation. Legal services are provided by qualified third parties.
Adoption Guidance provides referrals and coordination only. It is not a matching service and not legal advice.
When referrals are involved, we facilitate the connection but the third party provides the service directly. You engage with them under their own terms.
Ethics and safeguarding
We treat all parties with respect and dignity. This applies to intended parents, candidates, and any third parties involved.
Consent is required at every stage. No information is shared without explicit permission.
We do not exploit candidates. Become applicants are treated as individuals with agency, not as commodities.
We do not guarantee outcomes. Family building is complex and results depend on many factors beyond our control.
If you have concerns about conduct or safeguarding, contact us directly. We take all concerns seriously and respond promptly.
