    Expensive and full of things that you really, really don't need…read more What do you mean, I have to write more? Okay, fine. Well, since I've got three kids I've been dragged round this place more than I care to remember. First I thought (as the marketing would suggest) that this was *the* place to get the stuff for your sprogs. Well yes, that's correct, but only if you want to have to mortgage your house to afford it all. Turns out that that's just owning kids, nothing to do with this place. However, there's always someplace cheaper that you can get things from when it comes to bringing up kids; charity shops and places like International Stock in Kings Heath usually have Mothercare or Early Learning Centre stuff for half the price, so I tend to go there first before parting with the cash here. However, if you really need a new mattress for the cot because the old one's just got covered in what looks like Cream of Sweetcorn, then this is your place. Just be prepared for three figures before the decimal point when you get to the till. Oh, and there's a Boots round the corner (not much cheaper) and a babies section in the Toys R Us not too far away. Get your phone out and start comparing!

    Large shop selling lots of nice stuff ranging from maternity clothes to baby toys and cots. They…read moredon't have a huge range of bigger stuff out on show but there are loads of clothes. Staff are helpful but not standing over you whilst you shop. Plenty of parking and it's never that busy

    Located in the ever-fabulous Solihull, in the poshy posh Touchwood Centre, Mamas & Papas is the…read morepremium baby and tot clothing & accessory store in the UK. Slick 30something bankers and Marketing Executives finally having their first child in a quiet, leafy suburban neighbourhood shop exclusively at John Lewis or Mamas & Papas for their foetus wear - but don't let that put you off. M&P truly do have some very nice stuff. Of course, it's overpriced. No one needs to spend £749 on a baby buggy - it's not worth that, it didn't cost even half of that to make, even if an Ikea designer's name is attached to it. If you're after something like a crib or baby buggy, go elsewhere - you can find similar or nicer quality items at Mothercare or department stores, with 1/3 of the pricetag. But the baby clothing, bedding and toys are really divine from M&P - think White Company for infants. The feeling of walking into a mostly all-white M&P, picking up a £30 set of two babygros for your hungry little caterpillar just feels divine. And if you truly can afford to buy all of your baby's things from here, well done, you! Are you hiring at the moment? There is also a line of maternity wear, which is actually very nice, all in the suburban housewife sort of style, but good quality. The Touchwood M&P isn't the largest, so if you're after quantity, skip this store and head to the Bullring one.

    Mamas and Papas is in the main Touchwood centre so has the advantage of being indoors and near the…read morecarpark. It is a fairly large shop and stocks everything you need for a new baby from clothes to baths and prams. They sell some lovely stuff but it is very expensive compared to other baby goods shops. I guess though you pay for what you get. Their clothes selection is good and they sell boys, girls and neutral stuff. There are lots of funky baby toys and mobiles, even 'baby on board' signs for cars. Again, it is expensive. They have a good selection of prams and travel systems in store that you can look at. The staff are helpful and chatty and will actually demonstrate to you what each pram does so you can try before you buy.
