They have a fantastic assortment of all the safety & comfort essentials you could need in addition to lots of beautiful clothing & accessories for your nursery. If you're expecting, curious, or shopping for parents to be, I fully recommend this wonderful store! Additionally, James was incredibly kind, attentive, and efficient during our car seat installation & stroller pick-up!

We were helped by Auggie and were just starting our stroller buying experience. Auggie was very knowledgeable with the different strollers and car seats. He asked us questions and helped guide us to different options that suited our needs. Overall our visit here was very helpful and we were impressed with the explanations and help we received! Based on our experience, I would recommend Twinkle Twinkle Little One to anyone who is looking for more information or to test a stroller in person.

They have a great selection of unique toys and gifts, and they are bursting at the seams with second-hand clothing and shoes.

Maya wrapped up both gifts for me in a lovely butterfly wrapping paper and did a better job than I could have ever done. I can't wait to come back and browse the toddler boy selection!

A lovely little store, well organized & easy to shop. Their shopping bags are reusable, too, which…read moreI appreciate. What I didn't appreciate was what I consider deceptive advertising. Before you even enter the shop you see that they sell Cubs-themed items. There's a wall of mostly Cubs and a table exclusively of Cubs. On the table was a sign that announced a Labor Day Sale, everything 15% until Monday. Remember, this is ON THE CUBS table. When I asked why I didn't get my 15% off, I was told that Cubs items aren't included. Yes, on second look I saw there it was in tiny type, but that's not the point. The sale sign was literally placed among the Cubs items and so it was obviously misleading. When I pointed this out to the sales associate, her affect was, well, bored/annoyed. So I'm withdrawing a star because I wonder about the store's integrity and business practices.

They had a display with…read moresome really cute Halloween items, and if I'd stopped in here earlier in the month I 100% would have picked up a onesie for my daughter. They pointed out a couple areas where they have "girl" baby clothes (I mean, clothing doesn't have a gender but we exist in the world where people like to do that). Most of their clothes are for children older than mine but they did have a few things. It's definitely expensive, though, so I don't know that I'd buy a lot here. I did buy some very cute barrettes for my baby (I've found it hard to find some that don't have pieces attached to them, and I don't want pieces that might pull off) and I'll probably purchase more at some point. I also will check out their holiday stuff and may look at the coats they have as well, as the weather cools down. I'll certainly keep an eye on their Instagram, too.

I just purchased a baptism outfit for my son from this store after it being highly recommended by a…read morefriend. We went in 2 weeks ago on a Saturday and found one that we absolutely loved. It was cream color with blue trim. Ivette (I believe she's the owner?) said she wasn't sure we'd be able to get it in time as it's coming from England but she'd verify with the manufacturer on Monday and let me know before taking payment. She showed us several other options in a catalogue and we didn't like any of them. Monday she lets me know that the outfit should come on time - as a backup plan, I said I'd be happy to take the floor model from her store and have some alterations done as it was a little big for him. Earlier this week she called to let me know the outfit came in, so we went to pick it up today and to my dismay, it was not the right outfit. It was the same outfit in solid cream with no blue trim - we discussed how much I liked the blue trim at length, and she even texted me a picture of the outfit with the blue to confirm that was the correct one (screen shot of text below). When she brought out the solid cream outfit my mom and I both said that's not the one we ordered. She got extremely defensive and argumentative, blaming me!! Saying that was the outfit I ordered and basically it's not her problem. I understand mistakes happen and I would have respected her if she admitted something got lost in translation - instead she continued to blame me and tell me it's not her fault I didn't look at the wording on the invoice. Which by the way, said "ivory". The outfit is ivory but with blue trim. She claimed that she sent the picture of the outfit via text to show me the one from the store that I've already seen - that's a lie; she sent it with the invoice to confirm that was the right one. And Apparently I'm supposed to know that she baited and switched my order and also know how the manufacturer words their colors on invoices. It's obvious to me that she just wanted to charge me $400 for an outfit that's sold for $200 online. She continued to say that i was being disrespectful when all she was doing was LYING about what I really ordered. I could tell she knew she made a mistake the minute we walked in the door. We ended up taking the floor model which will require significant alterations on my dime. She didn't offer up any kind of a discount for taking the outfit that's been hanging in her store for so long, but she slammed $20 on the counter as a refund for the shipping for the WRONG OUTFIT (fun fact, the shipping was $27 hut what's $7 at this point?). This place is an absolute joke and Ivette is a complete liar and scammer and overpriced. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND this place.

The shop is not large, but... they don't carry much merchandise. I thought perhaps it was a new store, but I learned it actually opened in 2021. I also thought perhaps they have events or something for which they use the space--and I think they do, but pretty occasionally; not a whole bunch of regular events. They seem to focus on sustainable clothing and whatnot, so perhaps that is why, as those brands may be hard to come by. Some of their stuff is fairly expensive, and while I occasionally might buy something a little more expensive for a special occasion, I'm much less likely to do so for everyday wear. I will certainly keep an eye on their Instagram, but I'm not sure I'll be stopping in too often.

Between this shop and Virtu in Bucktown, I'm reminded why I love shopping local and why it's so…read moreimportant to do so whenever possible. Vanessa, the owner, is exceedingly kind and stopping in today and having the chance to meet her feels like fate. When I first stopped in the other employee here greeted me and asked what brought me in and if I needed help finding anything. It's not a large place but there is a LOT to look at. They have clothing, accessories, adult jewelry (possibly kids jewelry too, but I wasn't looking at it much), hair notions, and so on. One thing I really needed is a pacifier clip since my daughter has taken to pulling hers out and it ends up in a place in her carseat that is hard for me to reach! They happened to have these which made it a successful shopping trip right there. But whilst we were wandering, Vanessa complimented my sweetie pie and we got to talking. I was in the store for 35 minutes or so and probably half of that was chatting with her. I got a couple of the pacifier clips, and a freaking ADORABLE winter hat that I'm pretty sure is handmade and will probably fly off the shelf. I also bought a book featuring Chicago landmarks which I learned as I checked out Vanessa actually wrote. She autographed it for my baby which I love! Parking is street only and probably can get tough some days, but it's worth the visit. The store is full of really high quality items. They have quite a few Chicago-themed items as well, such as the aforementioned hat, onesies, t-shirts, and so on. It was so nice to talk with Vanessa and get to know her a bit. This is a small shop with big heart and should be on your list of fave baby shops in Chicago.
