Juliana was a major help during a very vulnerable time. I booked multiple at-home lactation…read moreconsultations when I was freshly postpartum, and she provided personalized and thorough after-visit reports to support my breastfeeding journey. I was dealing with blood blisters, a poor latch, doubts and fears about supply, and a baby that was temporarily not gaining enough weight. As a first-time mom, it was extremely stressful, and there were many tears. However, Juliana's visits always left me feeling more informed, reassured, and capable. We also did a weighted feed during every visit, which confirmed that my baby was indeed getting enough to eat. I still remember the relief I felt when I learned that. Juliana is a big reason why I decided to stay the course with breastfeeding. (Thank goodness, because now I LOVE it.) My insurance covered the cost of the visits, so I just paid the $60 travel fee. I also attended her breastfeeding class with my husband before giving birth. This was super helpful, but I recommend taking the class within 1 month of your due date. We took it a bit too early in my pregnancy, and forgot a couple things by the time I gave birth. Overall, I would highly recommend booking a lactation consultation with Juliana if you're in need of support!

How does this place have such low reviews?! We LOVE this store!!!…read moreMy daughter creates costumes for her schools character day in November and gets almost all her materials from here, she repurposed the fabric and materials. This places helps keep her in budget. She gives her art away but one day she may make it to sell and this helps her practice her creative skills until that day. My son was recently diagnosed with autism and clothes shopping is really really challenging. Plus he grew 4 sizes just this school year so we've had to go through so many clothes. This place hits the mark in so many ways. They offer incredibly low prices, organized by sex n size AND color!!!! I mean come on, that's beyond awesome!!!! They have changing rooms to try on clothes. They have toys and accessories galore! All good prices for the most part. Books! They have books. Furniture! I mean they are a one stop shop at reasonable prices. Recycling at its best! It stinks the waste that's just existing and being added to hourly, this place gives stuff a second third and who knows how many lives. Such a great idea and we have it right here in Oceanside. I wish we had their sister stores here, Platos Closet and Clothes Mentor. Same concept for teens and adults respectively. It is so nice to bring a container of stuff kids don't use or grew out of and yes they are super picky, they have to be, to bring you quality used items they are picky on what they buy. So sure they only buy a few items, but hey, $5 here, $15 there helps! You can use it at store credit, I always do and get store bucks and use it to save even more! While they decide what to buy of my stuff I can go have lunch or run errands, thats nice! Or shop while they go through it. My son has melt downs with certain materials or how some items feel on him, sensory overload. They are short meltdowns but loud and abrupt. I remind him he is testing new items, it's just for a moment then he can test the next item so we can decide. It takes 30 outfitted to find 5 that work, I've offered to put them back where I got them and worker insists you put them on the don't want rack. They have a system and they keep that system well organized. I never want to be a burden but they nicely explained that so it's nice to take my son twice a year to do this routine. They keep their layout the same all these years and well labeled so he can go and know where everything is. As an adult I appreciate this as well. You need a red shirt M, boys. Boom it's organized by precisely that. Need a pair of L green khakis boys... boom, it's precisely organized with those all together. My son saw an action figure he and dad both like and he used his saved up money to get it... it was $9 minus the $5 store bucks I had so he only had to spend $4 for this huge figurine. My husband proudly has it on his office desk and our son plays with it and puts it back. It's such a sweet thing. And this store helps makes these sweet moments (and makes it affordable!). Thank you all for all you do keeping this store in business and running smoothly.

The prices are great too, which is why I genuinely want to enjoy shopping and selling here. Unfortunately, my biggest issue is the customer service. The employees I've interacted with have been extremely rude and impatient, especially when it comes to bringing items in to sell. I completely understand that they need to have policies and procedures, but the process is made unnecessarily difficult, and when you ask questions about those policies, the responses can feel dismissive and downright unfriendly. The requirement that items be brought in a very specific type of bin also feels excessive for what should be a pretty straightforward process. Overall, I love the concept and the affordability, but the overly rigid protocols combined with consistently rude customer service make the experience much more frustrating than it needs to be.

We actually have quite a few Infantino products in our household. Our biggest one is the SlingRider (an over-the-shoulder baby carrier/sling). It's supposed to be really good for comforting a baby since it places a baby close to a woman's stomach. You'll probably have to ask my wife for more info on it (if you're curious). We also have a handful of their baby toys, which the li'l one loves to slobber all over. I'm sure that as she grows, we'll be adding more Infantino products to our rapidly growing collection of baby stuff. If you're looking for Infantino products, you won't have to go too far. We frequent Target and always find some of their stuff in-stock. I'm sure Babies R Us and Wal-Mart carry Infantino products as well.
