I was pleasantly surprised this time round coming to a "maternity" store!!! I recall many moons ago…read morewith my first one how "expensive" these types of stores can be but when I went online and searched the website, I was kinda surprised which sent to a nearby store to check it out! Walking in, I was greeted right away and was suprised at the selection that was available in such a small store. They had a lil bit of everything and different types of sales going on. This particular visit I can in for the leggings that were buy 1 get one 50% off, got those and a couple shirts off the clearance and left spending $60, not too shabby. The girls at the counter were super helpful and friendly and I have been back a couple times to get the neccessities like nursing bras!

Worst service ever! I bought a dress on Monday and I tried…read moreit back on at home, feel like don't really like it, and my husband also doesn't like it. Today, going back to return and a manager who was being very rude to me. She talked to me as an unpolite way and told me that make sure next time you bring your husband to a store and make sure he likes a dress, he let you buy it, he agree with what you like so that way you don't have to return any item. That's not her business, I can bring whoever I want, or buy anything I like at that time and return/exchange it as long as I haven't worn it, the tag still on and still have a receipt. The reason I returned a dress it's not becausey husband doesn't like it, but I found out that it's not look good on me when I get home. I am not vey happy about the way she(a manager) treated her customers. I spent lots of money to buy my maternity clothes in this store but when I just return ONLY one item and they don't even happy about it. Never come back to Tacoma Store. I wish I could give them zero star if I can!

I don't even know where to start with The Pencil Test in Renton, but I truly feel like there should…read morebe more stores like this for women. It's honestly kind of crazy that in my 33 years of life, I went so long without actually having a bra that fits me properly. The women who work here are incredibly knowledgeable. Both times I've gone in, I was helped by, I believe, Hailey, and she made me feel so welcomed and comfortable right away. What amazed me the most is how quickly she could figure out my correct bra size. She'll take a look at your back, see you in the bra you came in wearing, and then bring you an option she thinks will work. The first time she did that, I was shocked. How would she act know my size without even using a measuring tape? It was like magic. She came back with two bras to try on, and my mind was blown after the first bra she brought fit me like it was made for me!!! I can't explain the feeling you have once you wear a bra that actually fits you. Like you thought you were a bra that fit you until that moment. You're like, "Whoa! This is what it feels like. " It's crazy and out of this world to explain. It's honestly impressive how experienced and skilled they are. They also do such a great job making you feel confident and supported throughout the whole process. It never feels awkward or uncomfortable, which I really appreciated. Another thing I didn't realize before going is that they sell more than just bras. They also have underwear and a really great selection of bathing suits in different styles and colors for all kinds of preferences and body types. I highly recommend making an appointment if you can, because it can get busy, and you might have to wait a bit otherwise. That said, even without an appointment, the wait sometimes isn't very long. I've told my mom and several friends about this place, and every single one of them has come back telling me how impressed they were with the customer service and the overall experience. Yes, the bras can be a little more expensive than what you might find at a typical retail store, but the quality and materials are excellent, and they last a long time. For something you wear every day, it's absolutely worth it.

You get a personal fitter and they give you tons of recommendations based on what you're looking for. They also don't sugar coat it and give you the hard truth- like needing to embrace underwire .

First off, the store is packed, and it is so full it is hard to really look at things. Secondly, the prices are ridiculous. There were used one piece pajamas for 9.99. I can buy them new, on sale for that price. Baby equipment was also overpriced. There was a small selection of maternity clothes but they were so expensive we were turned off looking any further. The store smelled like a goodwill (musty). I will skip this place and go to garage sales or head down to Heaven Sent in Federal Way instead.

I don't even know where to start with this review - we owe Christine so much. We were so tired of…read morebeing treated like cattle by hospitals, with midwives giving us conflicting information, not listening to us, and leaving us feeling unsafe. So we reached out to Christine and In Tandem for a consultation. I honestly have always been a bit skeptical and afraid of home birth, so I came armed with a lot of questions. But once we talked (virtually) to Christine, we immediately felt compassion and care. She is the perfect guide - never pushing her own agenda, listening, but not afraid to give you her opinion. She backs everything up with science and her experience. Christine put us at ease throughout our pregnancy - That was the exact opposite to what we had experienced at our hospitals. She always listened, and even involved our oldest kiddo during visits. Christine and her team were amazing during our son's birth, we felt so safe and cared for. We had great postpartum care as well, coming to our home and checking on my partner, answering questions, and again, involving our older kiddo. It's been almost two years since, and we still miss Christine!

PART 2/2 (finishing our review on my husband's account due to character limit):…read more Now for the postpartum care. This is the most unique part of choosing midwifery care and in my opinion, the #1 reason to do so. Whereas in the traditional obstetric model you typically see your provider one time at 6 weeks (often just to make sure you don't have any signs or symptoms of postpartum mood disorder, to discuss birth control, and to clear you for sex and physical activity), Christine sees clients and their new babies about 6 times in the first 6ish weeks after birth. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all postpartum visits have been at home. These visits are about so much more than just you and your baby's physical well-being; they are focused on the entire family, involving older kiddos in the home, and it's evident that Christine genuinely cares about how everyone is adjusting and doing emotionally. For the first two weeks of your baby's life, Christine's license includes the provision of all routine pediatric care, saving you from additional appointments or trips out of the home so you as the birthing person can focus on recovering and celebrating your growing family. Again, the level of attentiveness and family-centered care received is unmatched. After the birth of our first son, I dealt with a resurgence of a lifelong struggle with anxiety related to the transition to parenthood. Until I connected to a community of West Seattle mama friends, I can genuinely say Christine and Taylor were the women who provided me with the most support. After the birth of our second son, I experienced some unexpected postpartum complications that required me to page Christine. I could have easily been sent to the Emergency Department for the symptoms I was experiencing, but Christine took the time to come evaluate me in the comfort of my own home and provide me with additional testing and support. If anything page-worthy arises during your time in care with In Tandem, you will receive a response promptly, and instead of a nurse line as in hospital-based care, you get to talk to your midwife directly. If you are looking for perinatal care that will change your life, look no further than In Tandem. The name of the practice is so fitting as your midwife will walk hand-in-hand with you and your family every step of the way. Pregnant families--run don't walk to In Tandem Midwifery!
