As a non parent I don't have much experience of this kind of shop, but my good friend has just got…read moreherself pregnant so i'm starting to find myself in them more often. I never knew how much preparation and expense goes into pregnancy! Anyway as a first time mother, we went to see one of their Nursery Advisors (specialists to guide you through everything you might need to buy). The session was really good and very helpful. They do of course encourage you to buy from them but they aren't too pushy. Session over there was time to grab some new maternity wear. Seems a lot of thought has gone into planning the store so there is plenty of room to navigate pushchairs and they have changing facilities too.

This is a great place to get everything you need for imminent children. It is a Santa's grotto of…read morewonders. Toys and clothes that make you long for your own childhood and look to the future at the same time. They have an excellent range of prams and pushers here. Someone I know recently got a magical folding down especially built to fit into the boots of small cars. It's amazing, really. The clothes, as might be expected, are cute and adorable and everything else in that category. The little shoes make you dream of little toes. In terms of expense, I can't really comment, as I have little experience in this area. But the price for each item seems reasonable enough to me. It's only when it's totally up that the numbers get scarily huge. But then, you are equipping the world for a new person to come into it... The only problem I have with this place is when things you need become things you're told you should have to be a better parent. The staff here seem to be quite sales driven, kind of like those annoying people in Curry's or PC World. They don't leave you alone, even when I tell them I'm not a parent they start talking about all the people know who are (approximately zero recently). Pressure selling in a high street store really gets my goat.

I found myself in mamas and papas at the weekend looking for a gift for a newborn baby…read more I have bought a few sale items from there previously so knew it wasn't cheap but was still quite shocked at just how expensive some things were! The baby clothes all look really cute and stylish, they even had little flat cap hats that were adorable but you have to wonder why someone would spend that much on items that a child will grow out of in a matter of months. My son grew out of his 0-3m clothes in about 6 weeks! There were beautiful little outfits that were £45+ each!! A mere onesie cost £25+... Considering I didn't really want to spend more than £20 my options were very limited. I did end up having a quick look in Mothercare but the style and quality didn't compare. I did find a lovely gift in the end but still came away thinking everything was a bit of a rip off!

I really love this store and they know how to treat their customers…read more They have excellent sales and will gift wrap items in beautiful boxes at no extra charge, even if it's just a pair of booties. Great place to arrange a gift list for all expectant mothers and they don't just stock the bog standard pink, blues and yellows you will see in other well known children's stores.

This branch has two floors. There are toys and bathroom accesories downstairs and clothing and…read morematernity wear upstairs. Its a nice shop to have a browse in as there is always something in there you will need for your child from weaning to potty training. They also provide you with a free cataloge to browse at your leisure so be sure to sign up to their mailing list as they have regular sales and special offers. Prices are higher then Mothercare but you get some really lovely unique Items so I'd say that its worth the extra.

I paid £16 for a dress for my niece but come to think of it thats quite a lot for a very fast growing child! Staff are lovely and helped me understand the whole sizing issue.
