A Time For Children

It’s all about the advice. And the curation. This store knows stocks fabulous stuff; all I have to do is give is a brief description of the child, and she comes up with the perfect toy. Every time.

I really can’t say enough wonderful things about this store. I am always shopping for gifts, and this is my first go-​to (as in, I will never buy a child’s gift from Target or Kids R Us again)! The selection is beautifully curated, the store itself is charming and organized, and the salespeople are friendly and helpful. The best part is that proceeds go to charity. I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place and cannot say enough nice things about it. And in reading the comments, they DO have the most gorgeous tissue paper pompoms and bags to wrap your gifts in! And unlike every other boutique on the UWS, it’s free of charge.

Talk about a great kids store! I ended up here while waiting for Celeste (great Italian restaurant next door) to open.
The kids book selection is super fun to peruse. Lots to see here and all the proceeds go to charity… did I read that correctly? This is a non-​profit kids store? What an extra added bonus.
Pleasant lovely people running the store, I will be back here to buy gifts for the kids in my life.

Very awesome store… Love this place. The workers are the most friendliest. I never received that much help in my life. Huge, great sale going on right now. I would recommend and also shop here again. Love it. They are very welcoming and If you come in with children, they will entertain while you shop. Very kid friendly. Merchandise is worth it, looks great. They gift wrap for free. Pretty bags and tissue papers. And to top it off its a non profit and all the proceed go to the Children Aid Society.

Me: Newly-​minted aunt, has no idea how much baby things should cost but knows they are all probably marked up on the UWS.
Store: Sweet 75% clearance section, distinct NYC section (which is what I was looking for), and free giftwrapping/​price tag removing.
I came here on my way to West Side Kids, where I had anticipated getting most of my gifts, but prices here were actually a little better for identical items (~$ 1). This obviously isn’t as big as West Side Kids, but it had more kind of things I could get for the parents of 5 – 9 months like cute painted letters, plus all of the proceeds go to the Children’s Aid Society.
Only one star off because I had to empty out the entire bin of letters to find the ones I wanted, and no one took a second look at me. Yes, they’re on clearance, but some kind of acknowledgment would have been nice?

What a great store! I found my niece a cute outfit and toy for her birthday. I loved their sale pile, great quality and a large selection in sizing as well. And I feel good because I brought for a cause! This is a must go to for any hip mom, dad, grandmother, aunt, etc.

Cute, fun kids store with toys, clothes, cards, and other fun things!
What I love about this store is that 100% of their proceeds go towards The Children’s Aid Society of New York!
Very friendly staff and products that are hard to find anywhere else!
Definitely the friendliest and most welcoming kids store in this area!
