Introduction
The journey of surrogacy culminates in the birth of a child, but the responsibility of parenthood continues long after. For international parents who have embarked on surrogacy journeys in Medellín, Colombia, transitioning home with a newborn comes with unique challenges and requirements. The Surrogacy Institute in Medellín understands these challenges and offers comprehensive aftercare support to help international parents smoothly transition home with their newborns.
Legal Documentation and Parental Rights
One of the foremost concerns for international parents is ensuring that all legal documentation is in order and that they are recognized as the legal parents of the child.
Birth Certificates
We help in obtaining the child's birth certificate, ensuring that it reflects the names of the intended parents. This is crucial for establishing parental rights and for future legal processes.
Passports and Visas
We also assist in obtaining passports and visas for the newborn, facilitating international travel. Our legal team works in tandem with relevant embassies and consulates to ensure a seamless process.
Medical Aftercare for the Newborn
Ensuring the newborn's health and well-being is a top priority. We provide guidance on the medical aftercare needed for the newborn.
Pediatric Consultations
We arrange for pediatric consultations to ensure that the child is in good health before travel. These consultations are conducted with reputable pediatricians in Medellín.
Vaccinations and Medical Records
Ensuring that the newborn has received all necessary vaccinations and that parents have a copy of the medical records is crucial. We facilitate this process, working with medical institutions such as InSer – Instituto de Fertilidad Humana and CEFRA - Centro de Fertilidad y Reproducción Asistida.
Emotional Support and Counseling
Transitioning home with a newborn can be an emotional experience for parents. We provide emotional support and counseling to help parents adapt to this new phase of life.

Our post-placement counseling services help parents navigate the emotional complexities of parenthood, focusing on bonding with the newborn and adjusting to new routines.

Being a new parent can be overwhelming, especially in an international context. We offer parenting education and resources to help parents feel confident in their new roles.
