Milo's is a sweet little boutique tucked away on Button Street, it stocks a fantastic range of…read morekidswear for boys girls and baby versions of each. There stock is quite unusual appealing to th audience of "funky, cool kids" who are tired of nana's knitted jumpers. I was really impressed with the range of high quality clothes and accessories, which includes an extensive footwear range and there's even a jewellery section. The staff are really cheerful and friendly and can offer advice on appropriate sizing and suggest ensembles which is helpful if you're buying a gift.

No, not the cookies, sadly, because I find the cookies a lot more interesting! But this little…read morefashion place is not so bad for those who want unique, high quality children's clothing. They are designer clothes, and you won't find stuff like this in Marks & Spencer or Primark. They also seem to do quite a large range of christening and baptism dresses/clothes, so if you need those and you want something special this is a great place go.

I love this shop! Loads of choice and you can join the club…read moretoo. Sue and Gemma always keep things aside for me when the ranges first come in. A really friendly shop with ranges like Sarah Louise, Mayoral, Emile et Rose, Kate Mack, Deux par Deux and the list goes on. Nothing is ever too much trouble....a great service. See you soon girls!

This particular Sue Ryder store is lovely; with its huge windows and pure white walls it's bright,…read morelight and airy and, because most of their stock is in good condition and is constantly changing, the shop is always very fresh. I only recently discovered that Sue Ryder was a national charitable organisation, I had thought, perhaps due to the quaintness of this store, that this was a locally based charity. Still, it's funded and run by locals. The staff are quite possibly the nicest I have ever encountered, nothing is too much trouble and they're always so, so grateful, to the point that I am shamefaced for just buying a copy of Wham! for a quid as a joke for a friend. I usually visit charity shops for books: university texts and leisure reads, and Sue's has never really been of use, I don't think books is it's forte, but there's always lots of kids toys (no not for me) and beautiful doll's houses (yes, for me) and if you look through there's often some designer clothes mixed in. I once picked up a stunning hat for the races in here: very Audrey Hepburn!

This independent, designer children's clothing shop in Grand Central offers a style somewhat…read morereminiscent of Betty Boop. Or maybe Betty Boop meets Hello Kitty? It's very cutesy and colourful in style, so if you love pink and frills you're bound to find something pretty for your little girl. They also offer a lot of items online, so if you want to order but can't make it in to Liverpool, by all means visit the web site: http://bodaisy.com. Also, they love custom orders, but you'll need to allow Bo Daisy at least a month to finish your custom made garment. Independent children's clothing stores are hard to find, especially ones that sell completely handmade, unique garments. If you have a little princess who deserves the best, you'll definitely want to check this store out.

This Mothercare is a fairly large store compared to other branches such as the one in the city…read morecentre. It does mean that it packs plenty of stock and by observation, more range of goods just by comparison. With the Early Learning Centre now combined with Mothercare, it is ideal for parents to find everything they could possibly want, to help raise their child. Prices are competitive and you will usually find that they are reasonable and of decent quality. Mothercare has been the main place for parents for a long time and it fully deserves to be; not hard to see why. Whether you're looking for prams, baby chairs or cots, Mothercare has it all with staff that are always willing to help.

The new mothercare is open now and while it is very modern and well laid out it doesnt have the…read morespecialness of the old one which was further down the road. My daughter loved the old lift tree and pressing the buttons on it hasnt been the same since. The best bit was the upstairs toy section it used to be out the way so you could keep the kids away if you wanted to just nip in without having the moaning for more toys.

Shouting out to all parents is Scott's Nursery World in County Road, which sells a wide range of…read morebaby equipment - most in general are well known brands (always a good factor) in terms of quality and guarantee.
