I love, love, love this store. Why can't we have stores like this in Vancouver? No, instead we either have tiny places that carry a handful of overpriced and impractical but cool looking organic clothes & gifts, or big warehouse places that carry the cheap brands and never have any staff to help you.
What do I love about Moms to Be? Well, I walked in looking for a car seat, which they certainly have. But at the same time, I saw in walking around the store all the stuff I had to painstakingly assemble through trips to the States / mail to my sister's house in the States. They have the Skip Hop bedding I bought, the wall decals I bought, a good selection of swim diapers (and other diapers), the portable bins I use for toys, a very broad selection of Gro Baby sleep bags in all patterns and weights, my UppaBaby stroller and all the accessories for it, etc. It's everything I had to scavenge for on the other side of the country, all in one place.
At the same time, they have staff around and they're helpful. I walked out with a number of things I had in the back of my mind to buy, but hadn't expected to find on my business trip. I'm looking forward to having to be back in Toronto every couple of months so I can shop at Moms to Be.
