BeHerVillage is a modern baby registry that gets you the funds to pay for what you actually need.
Instead of onesies and bottle warmers, you can add your maternity leave, house cleaning, meals, a doula, or whatever support makes the most sense for your family to your registry. Your loved ones send gifts, and the money goes directly to you.
No shipping delays.
No returns.
Just cash in your bank account.

It’s simple and fully customizable!
1. Add anything you want to your BeHerVillage registry (yes, anything.) That could mean maternity leave, a birth doula, home-cooked meals, house cleaning, or even a stroller fund.
2. Share with your people. Friends and family contribute to the support you've listed, just like buying off a traditional registry.
3. You get the funds directly. You receive the money right in your bank account. No exchanges, no returns, just real funds to pay for what you actually need.

Support. Flexibility. Cash. We’re here to help you fund the care you actually need during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Your registry becomes a way for your people to show up for you in a way that makes the biggest impact.
Through our partnership with Stripe, we have a simple, easy, and safe way for you to receive gifted funds from your loved ones.

What you need to know:
- We don't touch your money. Your gifted funds never go in our bank account. ONLY in yours.

Creating your registry is completely free. You get your FULL gift every time, with no fees taken out.
Your gift-givers pay a small fee (5% + $1.00 per gift) to cover platform and payment processing costs. If someone sends you $100, you get all $100. Every. Single. Time. If you'd like the fees to be taken out of your gift please email us and let us know!

As part of Stripe’s identity verification process, the last four digits of your Social Security Number is required. It’s part of what makes our registry so different, we get funds directly to you! This helps ensure the money goes to the right person. Full SSNs are only required for accounts receiving $750,000 or more in gifts, which applies to very few users.
Don't worry! We walk you through what kinds of support other parents have registered for, what’s been most helpful during pregnancy and postpartum, and what you might want to consider.
You can also explore support professionals in your area using our registry guide to learn all about what types of services you might want as you get ready for baby. Your village awaits!

Absolutely! BeHerVillage doesn’t replace your planning, it funds it! If you’ve already chosen your care team or services, simply add them to your registry and get the financial support to cover the cost.
You get to keep every gift. Whether your aunt contributes $25 or your best friend sends $500, it all goes to you, no matter how close you are to your goal.
Motherhood is full of surprises and your registry should keep up. With BeHerVillage, you’re not locked into anything. You get the funds directly, so whether your needs shift a little or a lot, you can spend them in the way that supports you best.
You reach out to the provider you want, book them directly, and pay them using the gifted funds in your account. We don’t manage the service bookings -- you get the money, and you choose how to spend it. With your bank account flush with gifted funds the world is your oyster!

Note: Once you’ve added your services, they’ll be reviewed by our team (usually within 3 business days) and then published to your live profile.
Once your profile is live, it’s easy to start sharing BeHerVillage with your clients in a few different ways:
-
Direct Link & QR Code. You’ll get a unique link and QR code for your BeHerVillage profile. Share these directly with clients via email, text, or in-person to give them quick access to your services. They can add you to their registry right from your profile!
-
Share Kit. We provide a complete share kit, including social media images and copy, to help you spread the word across your channels. Share your profile with ease on Instagram, Facebook, or anywhere you connect with families.
- Update Your Website & Welcome Packet. Add BeHerVillage to your website or any payment-related pages (like your welcome packet or pricing guide). That way, clients know upfront that they can add your services to their registry as a way to easily receive funds for your services.
We totally get it, support for parents isn’t always one-size-fits-all. The pricing you list on your BeHerVillage profile is simply a starting point to help families understand how much to add to their registry. You can include a price range, a starting price, or a short description that gives context. This doesn’t need to be exact, and it’s not a guarantee or contract, it’s just there to help families plan.
Yes! If you offer more than one package or service, you should list each one separately on your profile.
This gives families a chance to see everything you offer and choose the options that are the best fit for them. For example, if you have a birth doula package and a postpartum support package, list them both individually so parents can add exactly what they want to their registry.

The way you do business doesn't change! BeHerVillage does not pay you directly. Parents receive the money from their registry and pay you however they normally would. There are no contracts or bookings through the platform. Just more parents who can actually afford your services.
Never! The beauty of our cash registry is that we help your clients access money to pay you, and you keep 100% of your fee.
We don’t touch the money at all, it goes directly to the parent.
