What is a Preferred Provider?
When Birth & Beyond Resources started, it was important for us to share resources that were recommended by our community. We also knew that there were certain businesses who went above and beyond with excellence in their field. As a means to highlight these businesses and also raise money for our organization, we created the business membership program.
Preferred Providers are Business Members who have proven their excellence in their field by providing Birth and Beyond Resources with positive client reviews. You can find these Preferred Providers on this page as well as on their perspective resource pages, highlighted in purple.
