Small Business SaturdayWe’re very excited for the second annual small business Saturday in a few weeks!   As many of you know, supporting small, independent businesses is important to building a close sense of community.  At Wild Child, we believe in delivering value to our customers in the form of personal service that no website or large chain store can match.  That includes:

  • Personal stroller and car seat consultations where we listen to your situation and offer advice and recommendations just for you.
  • Letting you test drive our strollers and take our floor models out to your car to see if they fit in your trunk.
  • Suggesting great gift items when you’re not sure what to get for a friend’s baby shower.
  • Special ordering items that we don’t have in stock, including clothing and shoes.
