Katy Encalade
Katy has a true passion for helping intended parents create their families through egg donation and surrogacy. After 15 years in the industry some of the best moments are still receiving Birth Announcements from the families the company has served over the years and hearing the impact egg donation and surrogacy has made on the women willing to make such a difference in the lives of others. As both a former egg donor and gestational carrier, Katy brings personal experience to the company’s mission of creating happy families.
Egg Donor & Surrogate Solutions has been a member of the Society for Ethics in Egg Donation and Surrogacy (SEEDS) (https://www.seedsethics.org/) since 2018 and now serves on the Board of Directors (https://www.seedsethics.org/about-us). She earned her bachelor’s degree in business and psychology from Dallas Baptist University. She lives in Prosper, Texas with her husband, Blake, and their three children. She is actively involved in her local church, enjoys reading and cheering on her children in their activities. Katy is grateful to be a part of an agency that SERVES intended parents, egg donors, surrogates, and the donor conceived people we help create by providing a fulfilling experience through meaningful relationships, education, and guidance on their journey.

Barette Best
Barette was first inspired to become a surrogate in 2014 after witnessing close friends struggle with infertility. Deeply moved by their journey, she stepped in to help—and the experience was so meaningful that she chose to be a surrogate again in 2019.
Passionate about the impact of surrogacy, Barette now dedicates her time to educating others and sharing how this journey can transform lives. She’s known for openly speaking with women about the incredible difference surrogacy can make—not just for intended parents, but for surrogates themselves.
You can hear more about Barette’s story and her insights on how not all agencies are the same on our podcast episode: Listen on Spotify.
Barette and her husband of 19 years are proud parents to two boys and three lovable Boston terriers. After many years in Florida, they recently returned to her hometown and now call beautiful Las Vegas home.
