Marjorie Dimashkie
Director of Surrogate Admissions
About Marjorie
My name is Marjorie Dimashkie, and I am the Administrator of Dreams of Parenthood (DOP). At DOP we strive to maintain a very close bond with all our Surrogates and Intended Parents. We also feel it is important for you to know about “us” too.
I have an extensive background in the World of assisted reproductive treatment. I was diagnosed with Menopause at the early age of 33, and prior to that, it took us 8 years to have our son. This led me to dive right into an almost thirty-year career in a field I truly love.
I have managed many IVF Centers in the State of California and counseled numerous couples and surrogates over the years. Three years ago, I decided to assist in the opening of our third-party agency, Dreams of Parenthood. I now assist in handling the legal Agreements, Insurance policies and all financial aspects of your journey working very closely with our coordinators.
I hope to attend as many embryo transfers as possible and my coordinators will be there at the deliveries. Our goal is for our intended parents to reach their dreams of parenthood, and our Surrogates to be part of the most fulfilling, wonderful, journey of their lives.
Kassie
Senior Coordinator
About Kassie
Hi my name is Kassie, I have been with Dreams of Parenthood since 2018, but have been a surrogate coordinator since 2014.
I have been with my husband since 2008 and we have two beautiful children. I have completed two surrogate journeys, which was a set of twin boys in 2017 and another baby boy in 2021. I am passionate about advocating for surrogacy and dedicating my time and effort to help those who would love to help others make their dreams come true and complete their families.
Being a surrogate has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. If surrogacy is something you want to pursue, I would love to guide you on your journey.
Cecila
Senior Coordinator
About Cecila
I am a 2x experienced surrogate dedicated to helping current and future surrogates enjoy the most of their surrogacy journeys though friendship, support, honesty, and my commitment to them as their coordinator. I’ve work in the surrogacy field for a little over 8 years and love what I do. I have my AA in Liberal Arts and my BA in psychology. I plan to future my education with a master’s and potentially apply to Law School. Aside from being a surrogate recruiter/coordinator I am a single mom of 4 who loves hiking, cooking, cleaning, reading, and watching my kids in their chosen activities such as football, baseball, and dance. I enjoy learning and am passionate about my work as a coordinator. I want to ensure that all surrogates are treated with kindness and respect. I make it a goal of mine to get to know each surrogate and develop a great relationship with them. I am their biggest advocate!
Amanda Padilla
Surrogate Case Coordinator
About Amanda Padilla
My name is Amanda and I have my Associate’s Degree from University Of Phoenix in Early Childhood Education.
I was a preschool and kindergarten teacher for 7 years before I stepped away to pursue my first surrogate journey as well as focus more on the family business. I really enjoyed my surrogacy journey and fell in love with the feeling of helping to create a family.
I have since completed several truly amazing surrogacy journeys and am now a dedicated surrogate case coordinator/recruiter. I have been involved in the IVF World for a total of 8 years now and hope to remain in it for many more.
My goal with our surrogates is to be there for them in every aspect possible and to ensure that their journey to helping build a family feels just as special to them as it does to the family they are helping to complete.
My favorite title in life is Mom. I am biological mother, stepmother, foster mother and surrogate mother . My greatest gift in life is my family. So having a career where I get to play a part in helping to build families is just beyond amazing to me ! Surrogacy to me is love and joy and helping to bring someone’s greatest dreams to life !
