Changing the Way Families Travel
Meet the BabyQuip Team
Fran Maier
CEO and Founder
Fran formed BabyQuip (then Babierge) in 2016 with Kerri Couillard who started the business in Santa Fe. Prior to BabyQuip, Fran is best known for her 10+ years leading TRUSTe (now TrustArc), the leading privacy trustmark and solutions provider, and her role as Co-Founder and first General Manager of Match.com, the earliest and most successful dating platform. She has been active as an advisor to start-ups, many led by female entrepreneurs, as well as being an angel investor. Fran is a graduate of Stanford University and the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
Fran is also an Airbnb “Superhost” in both San Francisco and Santa Fe and has first-hand knowledge of the need for baby gear for traveling families, as well as the importance of personalized service.
“I love BabyQuip because I know how precious it is for families to enjoy their time together and because we help women make some extra money for their own families on our platform. It really reminds me of Match.com because we are creating a new category and everyone is so grateful!”
Used to dream of being President of the United States
