About us

A neighborhood business built on good news

Our story

We started with one stork, one lawn and one very surprised family in River Vale.

The Stork Network began more than twenty-five years ago as a small family idea: give new parents a welcome home they’d never forget. What started with a single hand-painted stork has grown into North Jersey’s best-known baby announcement sign service, and it’s still run by the same family.

We’re not a franchise or a rental warehouse. Every stork is inspected before it leaves, personalised by hand with your baby’s name and details, and installed by someone who lives in the same towns we serve. If something isn’t right, you’re calling the owner, not a call centre.

Over the years, we’ve announced first babies, fourth babies, twins, adoptions and homecomings, and we’ve set up storks for baby showers, grandparents and big brothers and sisters across Bergen, Passaic and Rockland Counties.

What we promise every family

Signs that look beautiful in photos

Clean, hand-finished panels — repainted and refreshed, never faded or chipped.

Discreet, on-time setup

We install early and quietly so the surprise is waiting when you pull in.

Real local service

We live here. Call us and you'll reach a person who knows your town.

No hidden costs

Delivery, setup, personalization and pickup are all included in your rental.

Rooted in North Jersey

From our home in River Vale, we cover Bergen, Passaic and Rockland Counties and much of Northern New Jersey — the same neighborhoods our own family grew up in.

Part of the celebration

We've watched siblings grow up one stork at a time. Being a small part of a family's biggest day is the reason we're still doing this after twenty-five years.

“The stork was on our lawn before we got home from the hospital. My husband cried. Our neighbors all stopped by. Worth every penny.”
