Once Upon A Child offers a sustainable and convenient way to buy and sell gently used kids' clothes, shoes, toys, and baby gear, focusing on quality, safety, and value. Each location is independently owned and operated, allowing customers to support local businesses. The store is well-organized, with a great selection of clothing for boys and girls, from premie to size 16, as well as baby furniture and toys. While the staff is friendly and helpful, some customers have noted issues with item condition and cleanliness, particularly regarding dust on higher shelves. There have also been concerns about the management of sold items, as one customer experienced a frustrating situation where a purchased rocking chair was mistakenly sold to another customer. However, the owner addressed this issue by delivering a new chair for free and updating procedures to prevent future occurrences. Overall, Once Upon A Child is recommended for parents seeking quality kids' clothing at budget-friendly prices without sacrificing value, while also providing an opportunity to sell used items.
Great spot! Decent prices on kids stuff and they let you trade in good condition used clothes/books/toys for store credit or cash. Definitely stop here before going somewhere to buy your kids something brand new, and you will save a lot of money.

Offered $20 for a Specialized 22inch bike priced at $350 new. Any sports stuff I recommend bringing to Play it Again Sports right down the road. They offered $75 for the same bike. Baby needs and clothes, absolutely go here but they do have to be in almost perfect condistion which is understandable.

Staff if friendly most of the time they don't seem to appreciate it when parents come in and let their kids roam the store while the parent is shopping, can't imagine why. Most of the items on the top self are very dusty and sticky a little off putting even for buying used products.
