If you are expecting, or know someone who is, I highly recommend visiting this store. Located in Madison Park (E. Madison and 27th), this store carries quality items for the mothers to be and the baby. They carry slings, belly balms, Under the Nile clothing and a wonderful selection on Nursing bras. The people are very helpful and they are a great resource for what's happening holistic in Seattle. ( http://www.birthandbeyond.com )

This is a must for all pregnant and new mothers. It is an amazing store! The sales staff is exceptional and definitely know their stuff. They will be able to recommend the non-traditional items and also help you find the items that you’ll need. We were able to rent a pump from them after my daughter arrived. Having a sleep-deprived mother in the store was enough for sure, but they weren’t fazed at all. They took the time to explain all the features on the pump and answered all our questions. It is definitely worth making a trip for!

It is a huge benefit to expectant and new parents to be able to enter a store where they know the products are all high quality and not be overwhelmed by hundreds of strollers. Note that Birth and Beyond does not sell infant formula, which is an imporant reason to give them your business over the big box baby stores.

They have been around for a while, and as a mother and member of Seattle's birth community, I am so glad for it! I send all of my clients and students here. They have the best knowledge of products and resources in the area. They also have a place for us birth folk to put out our cards, and they have been ardent supporters of doulas and midwives. They put their money where their mouths are, and they are by far the best birth and breastfeeding resource anywhere. Great pump selection, nursing bras, fantastic ring slings (the Birth and Beyond Ring Sling, it's the best!), cloth diapers, etc.....

Before my daughter arrived, I bought a few nursing bras here and found their selection to be unsurpassed. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful and is quick to call you back if you have ordered or reserved an item. After my daughter arrived, I have found myself returning week after week for other great things they have such as extra parts for the Medela pumps, wraps/slings and more bras! I highly recommend visiting this place in Madison Park if you are pregnant.

Yes, they do have some essentials and it is convenient if you live in the neighborhood. HOWEVER, their exchange/return policy is incredibly difficult and is not catered to a busy mother! Even with items clearly marked with their tag, they act as though you shoplifted the goods and are trying to scam them. (I was trying to exchange unneeded/unused/unopened goods and ultimately spend more money on other things.) The woman there was sadly unhelpful, and sent me away to locate a receipt. I completely understand this policy for returns, but think it's a bit tough for an exchange when the item clearly was from their store. Two trips later, receipt in hand and vowing never to return, I was able to make the exchange only to find they no longer had what I wanted and the same woman basically said 'oh well.'
On a more positive note I LOVE Merry Go Round, and have found everyone there wonderfully helpful. It is worth the slightly longer drive to Bellevue to receive great service and a wonderful selection. I love supporting small businesses, and they have mine!

I purchased a breast pump from Birth and Beyond and was very happy with the advice and service I received. Initially I was a little hesitant because the whole store concept seemed a bit earthy and granola-y for me. There is plenty of that crunchy, touchy-feely stuff for those who want it, but there is also good basic information and supplies for any parents who have questions and need practical supplies for their newly arriving baby.

This is where to go to find your belly support belts and that perfect fitting nursing bra. The staff is helpful, although only one seems to be working at a time, so you may have to wait your turn to get assistance. The changing area is a little cramped too. But, it's a good place to find things that you never knew you needed for pregnancy.
