While Airbnb does not currently have policies prohibiting home births, some Hosts aren’t thrilled about the new trend. TheBump AirBnb HomeBirth
shows home births have continued to rise due to the pandemic and hospital restrictions. Presently, according to the CDC, around 1 to 2 percent of births take place outside of a hospital.
note that guests “are responsible for informing the Host of any medical or physical conditions, or other circumstances that may impact your ability to participate, attend or use the Host Service.” and that guests “are expected to leave a property in the same condition they found it.” These two statements could make having your home birth at someone’s Airbnb a little sticky.
One Ireland-based host vented in an Airbnb community forum about guests who had rented their property for a home birth without telling them. “Not only are we not particularly close to the hospital, we are in no way prepared for any medical emergencies on that level, nor trained to aid in a potential home birth! I was gobsmacked, to say the least, that somebody would knowingly put us and, after all, themselves in such a situation.
