A really fantastic selection of baby and children's items - this store stocks everything from kids…read moreoutfits to prams and cots. This store is located half way down Castle street, it has a more personal feel to it in contrast to the big chain children's shops in town. They seem to stock all the essentials for a new born baby, the place is jam packed with Cots (both traditional and modern) and prams. All the prams are at ground level so you can give them a good test. Really modern store inside with the all the major baby brands stocked.

Pricewise Kids Store is another of those independent baby shops which I cant help going into to…read morehave a nosy. They are often overpriced but their stock is generally different and funky! Pricewise, as the name suggests, is slightly different. They focus more on cheaper prices and cheaper stock. Which is quite refreshing to an extent. They have all the usual items, such as clothing, blankets, sheets, toys (good for Christmas), prams, highchairs, etc etc. And I must say that the majority of stuff is pretty good and very nice. I was surprised however to see one large section of the bottom floor devoted to Halloween costumes, but I guess kids have to get costumes somewhere, so why not here. Certainly worth a wee visit for essentials and gifts!

Mama's and Papa's is great. They are a must visit for new (and old) parents or gift buyers. The…read morestuff in here really is top quality and they sell everything from clothing, prams, baths, highchairs, toys and beautiful nursery furniture! Upstairs they have staged lots of nurseries to give you ideas of what to buy and how lovely it could look. The one qualm I have with Mama's and Papa's is the prices. They really do charge above and beyond for things you could pick up much cheaper in Mothercare or Babies R Us. It's pretty good for one off things that they have exclusively but if you're kitting out for the first baby you don't want to be spending more than you have to! I love coming in for a look though! Something very warm and cosy about the store!

WeeCycle is a consigment store for babies and young kids clothes, toys etc. I love that they don't…read morecall the goods second hand, but refer to them as 'gently used'. How great is that?! I recently redecorated both my kids bedrooms and was reluctant to just bin or give away the old stuff as it was from Laura Ashley, White Company and Cath Kidston so I dropped it off at WeeCycle. Strangely, the things I expected to be snapped up didn't sell at all, which is hard not to take personally. What exactly is wrong with my stuff? Maybe it was more than 'gently' used. Anyhoo, most of it did sell so about a month later I went back to get my cash. The store takes a whopping 60% of what they've sold your things for so don't expect to make a fortune. What you can do though is spend what you have made in the shop and that way you get 50% of the value rather than 40%. A kind of very convoluted swap shop. If like me you end up with some unsold things, do the right thing and drop them off at the charity shop a few doors along.

I was REALLY unhappy with this service…read more I brought in my items and when I phoned up to see what was sold they told me nothing however, on facebook there was a few of my items up with sold!! So I explained this on the phone and they said they would get back to me which they didn't. So I called into the shop and was surprised to see none of my items so they all had sold! The girl in the shop told me she couldn't give me the money, the owner would have to however the owner was off on maternity! The girl in the shop told me the prices my items sold for however, when I spoke to the owner she told me completely different prices my items had sold for, lower than the girl in the shop had told me! In addition, there was 8 items I had brought in they had no record of, which I was told they must have been give away for FREE on the 3 for 2 sale or DISPOSED of. I was really unhappy with this as I would have preferred they had give them back to me. When I spoke to the owner over the phone she shouted over me and told me she didn't have time to listen to me as she had a baby and she hung up! I feel really short changed by this shop. I would NEVER use this shop again!

You know when you are out and about and you see a woman pushing a baby in something that resembles…read morea spaceship? Or when you call into a friends house and the baby is having its dinner from a high chair shaped like an huge egg? Or when you see men with a big bunch of cloth wrapped round their bodies with the faint sound of a baby sleeping coming from the middle of it? Well those are all people who shop at places like Kiddy Junior. It is the high end of the market when it comes to paraphernalia for babies and toddlers. Its all the different looking stuff that some yummy mummies like to have and of course it is all beautiful. The prices are high but you are getting a good quality product which is practical, modern and funky. My sister, her one year old and I walked in, had one quick look about and then walked out again. We had to leave because our credit cards started to cry really loudly.

While the stock itself is really great I found the prices a little higher than you'd pay in town a few miles down the road. Although this is often the case on the Lisburn road being in close proximity to the wealthier Malone Road residents. However you would find a few different items here than say to Mothercare or Mama's and Papa's so it's certainly worth a visit! Just make sure you're credit card is topped up!

Babyworld on the Castlereagh Road used to be called Toytown and was the one stop shop for toys for…read morechildren and babies. The Babyworld showroom pack an impressive range of prams, buggies, cribs, car seats, cuddly toys and everything else needed to welcome your baby into your home. One advantage of the large store is that you can take the prams for a little test run round the store before you buy. The store also offers a top discount for penny pinching yummy mummys, in that if you pay up front for stuff (which is the same as buying online, an option which many expectant mothers prefer) they give you 15% off the main price. Babyworld's prices are the same on average as most of the other leading baby shops like Mothercare, so they won't sneakily up the price before they knock 15% off. Another advantage of this store is that they can store everything for you so you don't need to worry about taking it with you either and cluttering up your home just yet.

It's a wee shop that's been there for years, but it stocks everything you need for a new arrival. I think people would be inclined to overlook it because it looks a bit old fashioned compared to shops like Victoria Square's Mamas and Papas, but don't be fooled. A lot of the stock is very contemporary and stylish. It's also a great one-stop kind of place which takes a lot of the hassle away from the experience (and anyone who's ever been or known anyone pregnant will know that taking away hassle is A Very Good Thing!). Finally, the staff are really helpful and knowledgeable, so if you're totally clueless about what you need, they're more than happy to help you!
