Makana Mother and Baby is closing it’s doors at the end April: o (I’m extremely sad to have to see this wonderful local business close. Cathy the owner is genuinely caring and it shows in her customer service. MM&B is currently having a closing sale featuring:
25%-30% off all maternity and nursing clothes
15% off all bras (except Bravado seamless)
25% off all infant and toddler clothing
15% off new organic Myobaby infant and toddler clothing
10% off Medela accessories
So if you are a mommy or soon to be mommy, or know of any, you better get there quick!

I’ve been putting off maternity wear for a bit and picked up just two pieces from here a few months back but now that i’m starting my third trimester I decided it was about time to stop trying to squeeze myself into my normal clothes and set them aside for later. I ran in and Kathy, bless her heart, came to the rescue. =-) It’s unnerving to see how your body has changed so much during pregnancy needing new bras and tops and yes even bottoms. She has a pretty good selection of basics that can set you up for success for the next few months as you bloom. I ended up with a batch from the sales rack which were around 25% off and some bras which the twins were so thankful for since they’ve been holding themselves up by thin straps the last few months. Now they won’t be resting on my over flowing tummy no more! Prices are decent if you can get them on sale since maternity wear is not cheap but save yourself the time and the frustration — get it while you can and shop often since they sell out of stuff fast — although she can order them for you if they’re out. Thank you Kathy for all your help! I’ll see you again soon to fill out my baby registery!

Great, informative, friendly and non pushy service.
Wonderful selection with good quality.
Definitely a must stop for anyone expecting or wanting a shower gift! Spread the word!

Great service! The lady who worked there was so welcoming. I felt like she was my aunty helping me pick out stuff I needed for my upcoming motherhood!
I bought 2 nursing bras here. Great selection, and I took my time trying on a bunch.
They also have a nice selection of nursing/​maternity clothing. They were all name brand maternity items that are a bit pricey but definitely cute!
They also have a Loyalty stamp card: Spend X amount of $ and get X % off.
I’m a fan. I even became a fan of their facebook page :)

I just found another cute Japanese Weekend dress in here !!! Kathy brings in the cutest clothes that make breastfeeding so much easier without looking so functional… plus she brings in so many other cute gift items like toys, books, maternity wear, spanx, jewelry, etc. — all you mommies & mommies «to be» need to check it out … I wish I had discovered it sooner !!!
Located a little off the beaten path in the same complex area as Umeke Market, Lanikai juice, and Assagio Bistro Kahala … but you turn into their parking lot which they share with the bank & the vet.

The owner Kathy is very helpful. She gives advice on what she thinks you may need, and if she doesn’t try to sell you something if she doesn’t think it’s an absolute need for you. For instance I was thinking about purchasing an accessory for hands free pumping while I was still pregnant and Kathy said I should wait it out first and then decide after I became comfortable with pumping. If she doesn’t have anything the item in stock she will call you when it comes in. It’s a great little shop!
