I find this store hard to shop in for a few reasons: Often items do not have prices marked on them, the store is a little messy and I nearly always have to wait a long time to be served at the registers. On saying this it does sell products at a reasonable price and is not to hard to get around with a pram as are some other stores.

The people working at Poyntons are so helpful and really know what they are talking about. It is set out really well and is a lovely to wander around and stop for a coffee or meal in the cafe. They seem to have everything you could want at a nursery with the added bonus of having a great cafe.

This review is for Baby Bunting, Maribyrnong VIC

Baby Bunting has a great range of good quality products. The staff are very helpful and able to offer assistance with a good knowledge of the products they are selling. They are often very busy but you don't have to wait long to get help which is great. They have a membership system that gives you discounts and records all your purchases which is fantastic for people like me who always lose receipts.

They have some of the tastiest Indian meals and if you have a big enough appetite I'd recommend trying the banquet. Sometimes they are a little slow with the drinks but the flavor of the food more than makes up for this.

Approximate cost: $11.00

This review is for Noodle Hut, Tullamarine VIC

Yummy noodles! They will make the noodles as spicy or mild as you request. I love the fact that they are quick and have a delivery service at a reasonable price. The servings are deceptively large also so there is plenty in each box.

Approximate cost: $9.00

Great food at a reasonable price. The staff are really friendly and it's a family friendly restaurant. I got a little giggle when I noticed the waitresses wearing jeans under their traditional Thai clothing.

This review is for Babyco, Maribyrnong VIC

I purchased a number of items from this store and found the staff very helpful although sometimes I did feel like I was being followed around the store. But I guess they just wanted to offer assistance and it's better than not being able to find someone when you have a question.

This review is for Dr Thomas Eggers, Fitzroy VIC

My experience as a first time Mum to be and now Mum was a great thanks to Dr Eggers and his staff. He and his team are so friendly and professional to deal with. I particularly liked his sense of humor and matter of fact way of dealing with things. It was good for me as I was really scared of childbirth but it did make me laugh when I was asking lots of questions and he said that the only thing he could guarantee was that it would be painful (he was correct).

This review is for Angus & Robertson, Airport West VIC

On a one handed last minute Christmas shopping trip (ie with a screaming baby) I was so impressed with the helpful service I received from this store. I was pushing my empty pram because I had my baby in my arms so I asked at the counter for some books I was after and they happily found the books for me and offered recommendations for gifts. It was a really lovely shopping experience. For a small store they have a good variety of books and great people working there.

This review is for Kmart, Airport West VIC

I often use the photo processing service at this Kmart so when I was after a children's digital camera for a gift I decided to look at what they have on offer. I made a simple enquiry regarding the camera's they sold and was more than disappointed with the attitude of the woman who served me. Although she was able to answer my two questions it was like pulling teeth getting and I was felt like she really wanted me to go away.

Approximate cost: $40.00
