THE PITCH
Family Traveling Just Got Easier
Packing for any vacation can be challenging, but with babies and toddlers, the task goes from difficult to nearly impossible. BabyQuip, founded in 2016, is saving the family vacation, making it easier for families to travel with young children. The baby gear rental service delivers a wide range of clean, quality baby gear items, from high-end smart bassinets to double strollers to toys and even diapers. The company has local Quality Providers who deliver to families in over 1,200 locations around the US, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and beyond.
Customers love BabyQuip, awarding BabyQuip with a world-class Net Promoter Score consistently over 90. The company has served over 175,000 orders (60,000 in 2022 alone) and received over 46k (99%) 5-star customer reviews. In Q1 and Q2 2023, 24% of customers were repeat customers. 83% of customers say they’ve referred BabyQuip to friends and family. BabyQuip was recently recognized by Good Housekeeping in 2023 and awarded with their first-ever “Family Travel Award.”
BabyQuip’s mobile apps, recently launched in December 2022, have been downloaded more than 60,000 times, driving new customers and valuable placement on smartphones.
BabyQuip has a sophisticated brand building and lead generation program. BabyQuip has a positive margin (what it keeps after paying Quality Providers and subtracting acquisition costs) on each order. BabyQuip has 238k Instagram followers and a robust social media and influencer marketing program, driving both orders and brand awareness. In Q2, 2023, social followers increased by over 107% vs. Q1 ‘23 (228K vs. 110K). Prestige hospitality brands such as Destination by Hyatt, VRBO, Wyndham Destinations, Guesty, Inspirato, AvantStay, and more, are partnering with BabyQuip to make their guests' stays more enjoyable.
The company enjoys network effects as well. 40% of new Quality Providers come from referrals, including customer referrals (21%), friends and family referrals (11%) and QP referrals (8%).
BabyQuip is led by Founder and CEO, Fran Maier, who cofounded unicorn Match.com and has appeared in major media such as Forbes, Washington Post, and ABC’s Shark Tank. She also was the founder of TrustArc, a leading online privacy and data management company. Maier won the bronze Stevie Award for Best Female Entrepreneur in 2022 (consumer services 11 to 2,500 employees) and was listed in Hot Topic’s 100 Most Influential Women in Tech in 2015. The experienced team also has a strong hospitality background, with many renting properties on Airbnb and Vrbo
THE PROBLEM & OUR SOLUTION
Pack Light. Travel Happy.™
Traveling with a baby or toddler can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to packing and carrying around all of the necessary baby gear. 75% of customers in a recent survey report that packing baby gear is the most stressful part of traveling with kids, while 57% say that navigating the airport with kids and baby gear is the most stressful. Car seats, strollers, and cribs take up valuable space and can be nearly impossible to carry from place to place. And when it comes to renting or borrowing, parents often are not satisfied with the safety and cleanliness of rental baby gear supplied by vacation rentals, hotels, car rental companies, and other accommodations. Only 8% of customers say the gear they received from a hotel or resort was sparkling clean, and only 7% say the gear was new, safe, and exactly what they would want. In comparison, 99% of BabyQuip customers report the gear they rented from BabyQuip was safe, and 97% say the gear was spotless or very clean.
BabyQuip's robust platform provides its community of over 1,700 independent contractors, called Quality Providers (QPs), the opportunity to build a business on BabyQuip renting baby gear. The Quality Providers are independent contractors, mostly Moms, who deliver rent and pick up the gear they own. We’re like the Airbnb of baby gear.
Prospective QPs undergo an application process, interview, background check, and extensive safety, cleaning, and hospitality training. Before renting out baby gear, they are taught how to properly clean items to ensure every family can enjoy the gear. Quality Providers monitor baby equipment recalls and clean and check their gear after every order and again before it goes out to the next family. They are professional, reliable, and trustworthy. Because QPs are accountable for every order, parents enjoy peace of mind, allowing their family vacation to be more restful, memorable, and fun.
QPs enjoy the extra income ($1,200 +/month avg this past summer among QPs with orders) and gratifying work. In addition to ongoing lead generation, the QPs benefit from an active and supportive community and coaching on how to build their business through social media, affiliate marketing, and networking.

Technology Solution
BabyQuip has created fully-integrated, proprietary technology that allows customers, Quality Providers, affiliates, and strategic partners to achieve their goals seamlessly across the platform.
Traveling Families
BabyQuip provides user-friendly web and mobile app experiences that allow families to reserve baby gear, modify or cancel reservations, communicate directly with their Quality Provider, leave reviews and tips, purchase and redeem gift cards, refer the service to friends, and more. By providing a straightforward user journey and including key touch points throughout the experience, users can easily browse, search, compare, and select the best options for their family.
Quality Providers
BabyQuip Quality Providers onboard through an automated platform that includes background checks and training and provides all the tools they need to launch their rental business. Once a Quality Provider is onboarded, they access a sophisticated business management dashboard to identify rental gear, which will be monitored for safety recalls and expiration. The dashboard allows QPs to manage inventory, availability, pricing, and finances, transfer orders to other Quality Providers, modify reservations on behalf of their customers, and access training materials and support resources.
Affiliates, Strategic Partners, and Influencers
The BabyQuip affiliate dashboard allows property hosts, influencers, travel agents, hotel managers, and affiliates to manage their earnings and create custom referral links based on different parameters. BabyQuip also has custom API integrations with partners like Guesty to make referrals seamless between partner platforms. The affiliate dashboard provides affiliates with access to valuable marketing resources such as custom messaging, brand assets, training, and support.
Localization
As BabyQuip expands internationally, the technology platform is refined and optimized through language, culture, imagery, product offerings, and currency to provide non-US parents the most valuable and relevant experience.
THE MARKET, COMPETITION & OUR TRACTION
Making The Options Endless
*The above statistic was calculated internally by the BabyQuip team based on their total addressable market analysis.
BabyQuip is revolutionizing the family travel industry and taking it by storm, just like CEO Fran Maier did when she pioneered online dating at Match.com. U.S. family travel is a massive market, and 77.5 million families spend up to $150 billion per year on travel-related services (Source). BabyQuip is building a new category to cater to the needs of millions of traveling families with young children, specifically.
In North America alone, there are approximately 30 million families traveling with children under six every year. When considering how often families purchase with BabyQuip and their average order values, these families represent a total addressable market worth a whopping $7.8 billion. In secondary markets across Europe, South America, Australia, and New Zealand, an additional 109 million families with young children travel annually, presenting an incremental total addressable market of $24 billion. BabyQuip's total addressable market exceeds an impressive $32 billion, and the sky's the limit for this innovative and disruptive brand. In a short span of time, BabyQuip has emerged as the go-to national brand for baby gear rental, leaving behind fragmented regional competitors and expanding its reach to international destinations. With untapped growth opportunities in North America, Europe, Australia, and beyond, BabyQuip is on track to transform the family travel experience on a global scale.
*These testimonials may not be representative of the experience of other investors and is not a guarantee of future performance or success.
Competition
National competition in the baby gear rental market is sparse, with mostly regional brands and local competitors available at specific travel destinations. Through a nimble and effective Quality Provider model, powerhouse marketing program, and world-class NPS (94!), BabyQuip has swiftly scaled to dominate the national market, easily boxing out competitors.
BabyQuip outshines regional and local competitors in every metric. With over three times the social media following and eight times the web traffic of its closest competitor, BabyQuip has truly left its competition in the dust.
What's more, BabyQuip is the only U.S.based baby gear rental brand to offer international gear rental. With its proven track record of success and strategic vision for continued growth, BabyQuip is poised to maintain its reign as the undisputed leader in the baby gear rental market for years to come.
Traction
BabyQuip is growing fast! In 2022, BabyQuip’s GMV of $12.1M, on 60,000 orders, is double 2021’s as families traveled again after the pandemic. 2021’s GMV of $6.1M was 3.5x higher than 2020 (as a result of the pandemic) and 2x 2019.
Q2 2023 was a record quarter for the business, 31% higher in GMV than the same quarter in 2022, with $4.4M in GMV on 23,000 orders. First half performance is exceptional, with $7.5MM in GMV booked through the platform (up 39% vs.PY).
As noted earlier, the company recently launched its first mobile apps in December 2022 and already has more than 60,000 downloads. The company also benefits from over 7,000 affiliate partnerships with property managers, travel agents, hotels, vacation rental companies, and others, increasing its reach and competitive advantage.
WHY INVEST
Going Global and Service Expansion
BabyQuip’s next stage includes expansion and scale.
In 2022, BabyQuip entered new international markets such as Australia, the Bahamas, Mexico, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Nova Scotia, Sint Maarten, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as more US markets. In 2023 and beyond, BabyQuip plans to continue this expansion into more international markets with particular emphasis on deeper penetration into Mexico and Central America and into European cities. UK, Spain, Ireland, and Germany already have Quality Providers.
In addition, with this funding, the company has plans to launch new services and categories like PartyQuip (BabyQuip launched “Party” category in April 2023) and evolve the underlying technology platform.
Finally, BabyQuip will use the additional funds to rapidly increase its Quality Provider network to expand deeper into US markets, increasing its market dominance.
Invest now and make a positive impact on families traveling all around the world!

📢 Q3 Progress and Strategic Growth Initiatives Se
YTD and Q3 Summary
Financial Highlights
Q3 overall showed solid growth, with an 8.5% increase in GMV and an 18.2% rise in net revenue year-over-year (YoY). While external challenges, including hurricanes, impacted travel demand, BabyQuip is seeing strong momentum and positioning itself for a robust year-end. Notably, BabyQuip's year-to-date performance is marked by a 30% increase in net revenue, reflecting consistent customer demand and engagement. This sustained growth underscores the strength of the business model.
BabyQuip’s growth continues with significant customer engagement metrics. Year-to-date (YTD), the company has added 50,000 new customers (+12% vs last year) and has seen a 48% increase in repeat customers, now totaling 26,000. The company's social media presence has grown by 22%, with a follower base of 465,000, which helps drive brand visibility and engagement. BabyQuip's YTD Net Promoter Score (NPS) remains world-class at 93, reflecting strong customer satisfaction and loyalty.
The company added 327 new Quality Providers (QPs) in Q3, bringing the total to 2,583 QPs. BabyQuip also expanded into 46 new locations, many of which are located in the U.S., where we expect increased demand. This growth in supply positions BabyQuip to capture new market opportunities and meet the growing demand for rentals.
In Q4, BabyQuip is introducing its innovative "Gear First" shopping model, designed to streamline the customer experience. This strategic move enhances product discovery, increases average order values, and boosts customer satisfaction through a more intuitive and seamless process. Early testing shows promising results, with higher conversions and reduced cart abandonment rates, setting the stage for future growth.
In Q4, BabyQuip is set to launch two high-demand categories—Beach & Outdoor and Pet Gear—marking the first step towards its comprehensive gear rental marketplace vision. The company is leveraging its robust, scalable architecture and user-centric design to support this expansion.
BabyQuip will soon launch Spanish and French language translations on its website. This strategic move will allow the company to engage with a broader audience, particularly as it prepares for future international expansion into Latin America and beyond.
The company is excited about its upcoming product developments and category expansions. BabyQuip is committed to driving revenue growth and expanding its market presence with innovative offerings that cater to evolving customer needs. Investors are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates as the company continues its strategic path forward, setting up for a strong 2025.

🌟 Reaching New Heights: Net Revenue up 51%
BabyQuip is excited to share its latest financial results. Q1 2024 was a quarter of remarkable accomplishments and improvements across many financial measures, a reflection of the company’s overall health and commitment to growth.
Q1 At a Glance
Net Revenue was $1.3M, +51% vs. Q1 PY, on 21k orders started in the quarter. Growth in Net Revenue was driven by improvements to our Take Rate (32% vs 29% Q1 PY), stemming from changes to service fees, updates to our cancellation policy, and the success of our Cancel For Any Reason Trip Assurance, which contributes nearly $3 per order.
- Net Revenue: We are thrilled to have reached Net Revenue of $1.3M. This result is 51% higher vs. the same quarter PY.
- GMV (Gross Merchandise Value): We reached Q1 GMV of $4.2M, +34% vs. Q1 PY.
- Take Rate: Our overall take rate, calculated as Net Revenue as a percentage of GMV, reached its highest ever at 32% vs 29% Q1 PY.
- Gross Margin: We achieved a gross margin of $1.2M, +61% vs. Q1 PY.
- QP Recruiting: Q1 was our strongest recruitment quarter ever with 338 QPs added to the network, including 27 QPs outside of the United States.
- Social Media: BabyQuip’s social media audience continues to explode, particularly on Instagram where we have over 360K followers. Across all platforms, we now have over 430K followers (a 13% increase vs Q4).
- Business Development: We welcomed a new consultant, George Redenbaugh, to head the team. George has quickly pivoted our strategy, and we are committing to more throughput from Partners, especially Travel Agents, OTAs, and others.
Q1 Product and Tech Developments
Surcharges
In Q1, we updated how we display delivery fees and surcharges to customers (now displayed as one combined fee). Though early, conversion rates have increased and there’s less “sticker shock” due to added fees and surcharges during user testing. Reducing the impact of surcharges on our customer experience will remain a priority throughout the year.
Party Rentals
Q1 was a record quarter for Party Rentals. Performance in this category is up 3x YTD versus 2023, with GMV records set for three consecutive months in Q1. Party Rentals should surpass GMV earned from Cleaning sometime this year, and BabyQuip is planning to build a standalone experience for this category in early 2025.
QP POS
Quality Providers can now book reservations on behalf of guests. This was a popular request from QPs that will make booking with BabyQuip easier than ever for certain customers, like grandparents or those who prefer truly concierge service. It also enables QPs to book orders in public spaces and at events.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates in the coming weeks, and thank you for being a part of the BabyQuip journey!

FAQS
With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000 are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, they are limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancellation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancellation policy. You may find the company’s cancellation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to be sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
