Customer Testimonials
"It arrived on time, in perfect condition and is a great toy! Thanks very much"
Emma Murphy.
We are currently open for business, however, we have taken the decision not to send baby gifts at this time. Given that our gifts will be delivered to a vulnerable group in the population, new born babies, we have taken the decision NOT to dispatch orders at this time. We note that more and more online retailers are suspending their operations, if non-essential, to reduce pressure on front line delivery staff and we also support this approach. If you place an order today, we will dispatch it once things settle or once the lockdown has been lifted. We thank you for your co-operation at this time.
