Whenever they miss you, they just hug their bear to hear your voice.
Now my granddaughter falls asleep to my voice — even though I'm two states away.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I believe BeThereBearLabs offers something new and truly meaningful in grief work — a way for families to hear a loved one's voice again. I have had the pleasure of seeing the comfort it brings is real and genuinely therapeutic, and have watched it move people deeply.
Real families, hearing them again.
Every bear carries a different voice — a mother, a husband, a grandmother. Here's what families have told us.
"I love you, Linda" — hearing Lanny say it again, in his own voice, was the first time I felt him close since the funeral.
The voicemail she almost deleted became the message she hugs every night.
Growing up, the small "I love you" said at the dinner table was everything. Now my kids get to hear it too.
Getting their voice right is everything.
Reviewed by a real person
Every message is checked by one of our editors before it ever reaches you — never sent out sight unseen.

Growing up, family was everything to me. The voices around the dinner table, the stories told again and again, the small "I love yous" — those are the things you'd give anything to hear one more time.
I built BeThereBear so the people we love can always be heard — so their voice can live somewhere you can hold, for the people who'll always want to hear it.
