Breastfeeding (5)

We are happy to answer general questions by phone or in person without an appointment. For concerns about latch, positioning, physiological challenges, and other specific questions, we ask that you call for an appointment with one of our experienced lactation professionals. Scheduling an appointment in advance ensures that you receive the best possible service and attention in a private space.

In addition to one-on-one counseling, we also host a Nursing Moms Group every Thursday at 12:30 pm. This group is free and a great place to find support and get basic questions answered. It is also a great place to meet other nursing moms. No reservation required, just come as you are. You’ll be glad you did!

We carry sizes 32A to 50K and everything size in between! All of our nursing bras and tanks are new. We carry many styles from Bravado! Designs, Medela, Anita, Fancee Free, La Leche League Bras and Glamourmom. Not sure what you may need? No worries! We are happy to fit you at anytime without an appointment.

We are an authorized Medela dealer. We rent Medela hospital grade, double electric breast pumps. There are two models: the Lactina and the Symphony. The Lactina rents for $36/month. The Symphony rents for $60/month. Each pump requires a $20 deposit that is refundable when the pump is returned. The difference between these pumps is that the Symphony is the newest technology. It has a feature called Natural Expression which mimics a baby’s sucking pattern. This means that it starts out pumping quickly and once you see milk you push a button which makes the pumping become slower, just like how a baby’s sucking slows when the milk lets down. The Lactina is what women have used for years before the Symphony was designed. The Lactinas speed can be adjusted manually. There is a kit that is needed for each of these pumps. The kit includes all of the plastic parts the touch Mom and the breast milk. We sell the kit parts in bulk so you can buy just what you need. A full kit for either of our rental pumps costs about $65 and is yours to keep.

No!  Soreness can be normal in the first few weeks, but pain is never normal.  If you are having pain, seek out a Certified Lactation Counselor or La Leche League Leader and get help early!

Yes! We have play areas throughout the café and shop. All the toys are fair game for the kiddos! We put the more delicate items up high and out of reach and we keep the pieces that come with toys behind the counter for safety. If you’d like to buy a toy that comes with pieces, just ask for them!

Resale (7)

Frequently Asked Questions regarding our purchasing of resale items.

We do not accept appointments. We do ask that you wait while we go through your gently used items, so you can come when it’s convenient for you. Don’t worry; we are usually pretty fast at this. We get lots of practice! While you wait, let the kids play in our play areas throughout the store and you can see what’s new on our racks or get a bite to eat or a smoothie at Child’s Play Café.

We do not sell used car seats and we don’t buy them either. We do sell The Britax line of new car seats.

If we have what you want in stock, we would love to rent it to you. We do not rent car seats. We do rent portacribs, excersaucers, swings, strollers, etc. $3 per item, per day is what it will cost you!

We get new items in EVERYDAY! That's one of the many beautiful things about resale: the inventory is always fresh!

We will look at any season, anytime; however, we primarily buy spring and summer items from February thru June and fall and winter items from June thru January.We will buy off-season items if they are spectacular pieces as our storage space is limited.
