Mamas & Papas

I found myself in mamas and papas at the weekend looking for a gift for a newborn baby.
I have bought a few sale items from there previously so knew it wasn’t cheap but was still quite shocked at just how expensive some things were!
The baby clothes all look really cute and stylish, they even had little flat cap hats that were adorable but you have to wonder why someone would spend that much on items that a child will grow out of in a matter of months. My son grew out of his 0−3m clothes in about 6 weeks! There were beautiful little outfits that were £45+ each! A mere onesie cost £25+…
Considering I didn’t really want to spend more than £20 my options were very limited. I did end up having a quick look in
Mothercare but the style and quality didn’t compare. I did find a lovely gift in the end but still came away thinking everything was a bit of a rip off!

Mamas & Papas bits and pieces are not the cheapest BUT the quality is fantastic. This store is pretty big and I love the layout and its great they have displays of their nurserys so you can really get a feel as to how your nursery could look. The staff are so friendly and really know their stuff. When we were buying a pram for our first child, they knew each and every buggy inside out! We were so impressed and certainly didn’t have such an indepth conversation with anyone else in one of the many stores we visited before buying our first buggy from Mamas & Papas!

I really love this store and they know how to treat their customers.
They have excellent sales and will gift wrap items in beautiful boxes at no extra charge, even if it’s just a pair of booties.
Great place to arrange a gift list for all expectant mothers and they don’t just stock the bog standard pink, blues and yellows you will see in other well known children’s stores.
