Curator Hotel & Resort Collection (“Curator”) is announcing its new partnership with BabyQuip, the world’s largest baby gear rental and delivery marketplace.

Since its founding in 2020, Curator has continued to expand its menu of innovative solutions across all areas of hotel operations, technology, and services to allow member hotels the ability to cater to travelers seeking lodging options with much more than basic amenities. Under the new partnership, BabyQuip will deliver baby gear, including strollers, car seats, cribs, toys, baby essentials and many more things a family may need while they travel, to select member hotels thus enhancing the guest experience for families during their trips away from home. In addition, the partnership will reduce the typical pain points and operating expenses related to a hotel’s baby gear as they can outsource equipment purchasing, storage, management, delivery, and cleaning to BabyQuip.

As a mom, I know firsthand the logistical challenges that travelers have to consider when planning a family trip, from finding family-friendly hotels and amenities but also making sure you have access to the right gear and accessories you have at home in order to make the trip as stress free as possible,” said Jennifer Barnwell, President of Curator Hotel & Resort Collection. “Being a BabyQuip customer myself, I’m excited that this new partnership will facilitate more seamless travel for parents, so they can plan ahead and enjoy their trip without worrying about gear, toys, or essentials for their kids.”

“At BabyQuip, we remove a big travel obstacle for families and give them peace-of-mind. When they discover all the gear they need and want can be waiting for them at their hotel, they will typically travel more often and to the locations where they know our service is offered,” said BabyQuip CEO, Fran Maier.

BabyQuip services are now available at five Curator member hotels, and we are looking to expand the program across other properties located in available markets. Curator member hotels currently offering BabyQuip services include:
