Your Custom Fertility team
Cheryl Lister, Owner
Cheryl’s passion for third-party fertility blossomed from her own personal journey as an Intended Parent. Thanks to the incredible gift of her egg donor, Cheryl is now the grateful and joy-filled mother of two daughters, born in 2009 and 2012.
With a background in counseling and business, Cheryl became fascinated and inspired to professionally enter the world of third-party fertility. She understands that the path to parenthood can be complex, emotional, and deeply personal—and she’s committed to help soften the edges of the journey for each of her clients, providing
expertise, steady guidance, and heart to every client.
Through Custom Fertility, Cheryl offers expert guidance in searching for and matching Intended Parents with exceptional egg donors and surrogates. She also provides personalized coaching, education, and ongoing support for those seeking an extra layer of advocacy and care on their path to building a family.
Reach out today for a complimentary consultation and learn how Cheryl can help guide your family-building journey with compassion, clarity, and heart.
