We set up our baby shower registry with The Wild and are so happy we did! Everything they carry is very high quality. Loved that we were able to support this great local business, and feel confident that everything we selected would be non-toxic and well-made.

I joke that motherhood has made me into the ideal consumer, because my mom friends and I often talk about our favorite brands and products. Well, this is the perfect place to put that into practice. It has all of the best brands--Frida and Coterie come to mind--and it's nice to buy locally instead of during late-night scrolling on Amazon. The store is beautiful and has everything you could need. Some of it is pricey, but everything is very well-made and there are certainly items in all price ranges. Most of all, this store is accommodating to babies. The staff helped me get my stroller in; they have two changing pads with diapers and wipes (plus I think a toiler sprayer for cloth diapers?); and they let me nurse in the back room. I will definitely be back!

As an early Christmas present, my husband ordered me a baby carrying winter jacket from "The Wild," but when we received it we realized it was the wrong size. The shop was so accommodating when he called to tell them of the mistake. We live in DC and were passing through New York in a month and they told us they'd happily exchange it for us when we came through. That's more generous than the actual company site of the coat! When we got there, they let me try it on the new size WITH a carrier and dummy doll to make sure it fit how I wanted it to. It was so nice not having to take my son out of his stroller! The store is clearly made with mothers and children in mind. The shop itself is also just filled with the most wonderful baby and maternity products. A great place for gifts and necessities. They also have a variety of classes available in the back of the store. This is an awesome small community store and we will definitely be back!

This store is a travesty. They talk the talk but do not walk the walk - my family will never shop here again. They message that they are here to support pregnant women and children but will not let a 9-month pregnant woman use the bathroom in an emergency!! After reading other negative reviews here, I feel duped for ever believing this was a good place to shop. Shame on the owners, you are the WORST.

I love this store, not only for the selection of eco friendly clothes and carriers, toys and nursing wear. Yes it's pricey but everything here is hand picked and of super high quality. But the best is that is a really welcoming place if you just need a safe place to nurse your baby or change a diaper. Anyone that's been out and about with their newborn knows what a scary place the world can be and this is your haven! Big selection of classes for new and expecting parents and their babies too.

Not welcoming to LGBTQ Families or Single Moms. I have heard so many great things about The Wild, living in the neighborhood I was excited to finally check it out. In two experiences of visiting The Wild, this month, I have to say that both times I felt quite uncomfortable in the store. The classes, which were the main draw for me, made no attempt to recognize that families can have multiple structures. At The Wild, parenthood is about moms and dads. Apparently same sex partners, co-parents, or supportive people helping single women aren't valid. Looking through the month's full program of courses it struck me that there wasn't a single one that acknowledged queer families or single mothers or even attempted to use inclusive language such as "birth partner" "spouse" "co-parent" etc. Living in NYC at this moment, this seems pretty tone deaf. My masculine presenting partner and I were at The Wild together this Sunday afternoon. We were ignored by the staff who only spoke when we asked her question about products. She seemed so annoyed by us talking to her we decided to not to ask about classes which is the reason we made it a point to come in together. We still bought a swaddling blanket, a toy and a belly balm but left feeling extremely uncomfortable. Apparently our kind of family is not welcome at The Wild. It is no wonder that pregnancy and parenthood can again be even more isolating for queer parents and single moms.

Great for expecting and new parents, with a wide selection of curated products and a program of educational and developmental classes. We love the affordable baby playgroups and found the pre-birth education classes they hosted to be invaluable. A wonderful neighborhood resource.

I was looking for something for my cousins baby shower. I didn't know exactly what I should be getting and I didn't want to just pick something from her registry. I had a conversation with the store owner about what might be a nice combination of small gifts for a new mom. She was very helpful and went out of her way to make thoughtful suggestions. I had a great experience shopping at Wild Was Momma and will definitely shop there in the future. Great small business!

Within a week of posting this review, the store owner began sending angry messages to my personal email account, accusing me of trying to ruin her business. I never gave out that info on Yelp, which means she went back into the store records to find it from the online purchase I made. Not only is this a violation of Yelp policy, it's so unprofessional and personally violating as well. It's important to be able to speak to your experience as a customer, whether positive or negative. And the way that a business treats a longtime customer over a straightforward transaction speaks volumes about it's ethics. As a young black woman, standing in the front of that store for 30-minutes being accused of falsifying a purchase/return (which the store had in its records!), while other customers were treated to smiles and baby wrap demos, was just humiliating. Having the space to be honest about unfair treatment is a small way of righting a wrong. It's interesting how many of the reviewers that posted just after I did, either criticize or mock my experience instead of discussing their own.
