Since 2002, Staci Swiderski has been a pioneering force in the world of reproductive medicine. As the founder, CEO, and owner of Family Source Consultants (FSC), she has built one of the most respected international agencies specializing in egg donation and gestational surrogacy. Her agency is known not just for results, but for delivering those results with empathy, ethics, and unwavering dedication to all parties involved—intended parents, surrogates, and donors alike.
A Personal Mission Turned Global Movement
Staci’s professional mission is deeply rooted in personal experience. After a long and emotional journey, she and her husband welcomed their son via gestational surrogacy in 2005. She also selflessly served as an egg donor, helping another couple bring two children into the world. These transformative experiences gave Staci a unique lens through which to view third-party reproduction—not just as a professional, but as someone who has lived it.
This empathy-driven perspective is the foundation of FSC. Staci built the agency with a heartfelt commitment to offering guidance, support, and education to others navigating the complexities of assisted reproduction.
A Vision Grounded in Compassion and Expertise
Staci’s leadership at FSC merges business acumen with personal compassion. Every client is treated not just as a case, but as a unique story deserving of personalized care and attention. From the agency’s inception in 2007, FSC has grown into a globally recognized name in reproductive medicine, evolving alongside advances in IVF, genetic screening, and embryo transfer techniques.
FSC maintains a sharp focus on ethical standards and personalized experiences, ensuring intended parents, donors, and surrogates are fully supported and informed throughout their journeys. The agency takes pride in creating an environment where transparency, inclusion, and dignity are non-negotiable.
Mentorship, Realignment, and Strategic Growth
A significant turning point in Staci’s professional evolution came when she embraced mentorship, seeking guidance from an experienced leader who helped shape her business mindset. That mentorship became instrumental in her growth as a CEO and played a vital role in FSC’s trajectory.
Recognizing a need for operational realignment during a period of rapid growth, Staci initiated a strategic overhaul in late 2021. This included:
- Introducing flexible package options for clients
- Implementing a modern CRM system
- Restructuring administrative operations to foster internal growth
The result was a more agile, efficient organization. Improved team dynamics, elevated morale, and a streamlined client experience followed. It was a transformative shift that positioned FSC for long-term success in an ever-evolving landscape.
Technology Meets Humanity
While AI and automation increasingly permeate the healthcare industry, FSC remains firmly rooted in the belief that human connection is irreplaceable—especially in matters as intimate as building a family. The agency prioritizes in-person care, clear communication, and compassionate service over impersonal, tech-driven processes.
This commitment to retaining the “human touch” allows FSC to stand out in a field where personalization is paramount.
Navigating a Changing Landscape
The field of reproductive medicine has transformed dramatically over the past two decades. Staci has witnessed—and helped shape—this evolution. From advancements in IVF and genetic testing to growing social acceptance and legal reforms, the landscape has expanded in ways that now allow more people to pursue parenthood than ever before.
FSC remains actively involved with organizations such as ASRM and Resolve, ensuring they remain informed, proactive, and ready to advocate for equitable access to reproductive services. Staci understands that changes to reproductive rights affect everyone in the industry—and believes strongly in fighting to remove any barriers that restrict access to family-building options.
The Power of the Right Team
Staci emphasizes the importance of choosing the right reproductive “team.” That includes the agency, fertility clinic, attorney, and support specialists. The journey to parenthood is emotional, delicate, and often complex. Trust, she says, is not optional—it’s essential.
FSC’s team is composed of professionals with deep industry expertise and often, personal experiences with third-party reproduction. This creates a unique dynamic where empathy and knowledge intersect, offering clients unparalleled support.
Staci’s message to hopeful parents is clear:
“Have faith, don’t give up. Trust the process—and the team walking beside you.”
Culture, Values, and Leadership by Example
At FSC, values like transparency, ethics, and compassion are not just buzzwords—they are embedded into every aspect of the organization. Staci and her leadership team lead by example, setting the tone for a culture that’s inclusive, client-centered, and collaborative.
From onboarding new employees with mission-driven orientation to offering continuous professional development opportunities, FSC ensures every team member is aligned with the agency’s vision. They also maintain an open-door policy for feedback and innovation, believing that the best ideas often come from within.
This inclusive leadership model has helped FSC foster a resilient internal culture—one that supports not only their clients but also their own team’s growth and wellbeing.
Ethics and Affordability in Reproductive Services
One of Staci’s core beliefs is that ethical practices must be the backbone of any reproductive agency. This means:
- Fair compensation for surrogates and egg donors
- Adherence to medical and legal standards
- A balance between affordability for intended parents and fairness for providers
FSC actively seeks out financial models and partnerships to reduce costs and make surrogacy and egg donation accessible to a wider audience. By doing so, they ensure that financial hardship doesn’t stand in the way of family-building dreams.
Celebrating Miracles, Every Day
For Staci and her team, the impact of their work is felt every day. From receiving heartfelt birth announcements to updates from surrogates and donors, these moments are constant reminders of why FSC exists.
What might seem like just a service to some is a life-changing event to others. At FSC, every story is celebrated. Every baby born is a miracle. And every journey is treated with reverence.
Inspiring the Future of Family Building
Looking ahead, FSC is committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in reproductive medicine—while never compromising on integrity or compassion. They aim to:
- Expand global access to third-party reproduction
- Innovate new financial models to support affordability
- Educate the public and dismantle stigma
- Champion legal protections for all parties involved
Staci’s legacy is one of empowerment, resilience, and unwavering hope. She has turned personal challenges into a mission that changes lives daily—and through FSC, she continues to give others the opportunity to experience the profound joy of parenthood.
