Macklem’s Toronto Pairing Families with Perfect Products!

I know they won’t tell you this themselves, but babies are pretty high-maintenance. Everything from feeding to bathing to quiet walks in the park requires its own specialized piece of gear. If you’re looking for the best way to meet all your baby’s demands, I’d love to tell you about one of my favorite spots: Macklem’s in Toronto. Not only is this modern shop stocked with the latest in baby gear, but the employees are experts dedicated to helping you find exactly what you need. 

About Macklem’s in Toronto

As you walk down a crowded street in the middle of the city, Macklem’s immediately stands out. Surrounded by faded brick buildings, Macklem’s is painted a stark black with sleek mirrored letters. Inside, you’ll find polished wooden floors, shelves of the latest baby products, and smiling faces ready to tell you all about them. 

While all the pieces inside are modern, the store itself is not. Macklem’s has been a staple for Toronto parents since 1945. And while employee turnover is relatively low, the staff members do what they can to stay up-to-date on trends and technology. The store’s dedication to exceptional customer service has turned many occasional shoppers into regulars. You can visit at 2223 Dundas St. W. 

Products

Macklem’s has all the gear you need to keep your baby safe while you’re on the go. Their car seats are ideal for children of all ages. You’ll find UPPAbaby and Nuna infant seats that effortlessly click into a secure base. As your child ages, you can return for convertible car seats ready for years of adventures. Their booster seats will give your child a comfortable seat to grow until they’re ready to sit by themselves. You’ll be able to find additional accessories, such as car seat covers, to keep your baby warm. 

The store has every kind of stroller imaginable. Their Bugaboo strollers keep your baby in view, while their UPPAbaby jogging strollers are durable enough for marathon training. You can find double strollers, fold-up wagons, and bases that work with your car seat for easy transfer. 

Specialty

Macklem’s has everything you need to create a gorgeous nursery. Whether you want a standard wooden crib or prefer something a little more modern with a breathable clear front, they have it. You can buy gliders that will keep you comfortable during those late-night feedings. Their dressers are ideal for staying organized, while their bookcases will display all your child’s favorite stories. You can also find bed rails and bunk beds for older kiddos. 

The store has all the basics you need for that first year and a registry system to build a wish list. From silicone dinnerware to foldable bathtubs, you’ll be ready for anything!
