baby bonuses
Child birth incentives
Baby bonuses are government payments to parents following the birth of a child, designed to encourage higher birth rates or offset child-rearing costs.
The term appears most often in Canadian and Australian policy discussions: The baby bonus helped cover diapers and formula for the first year.
Such programs may be one-time payments or ongoing benefits.
