Village Baby benefits greatly from its location in the heart of Brookline Village, a neighborhood notable for its commitment to independent stores and child-friendly businesses. Whether you want to stop next door at Henry Bear’s Park to shop for toys and play at the train table, or find the perfect book at The Children’s Bookshop down the block, you can combine your trip to Village Baby with a variety of shopping and educational experiences. Grab a burrito or a bowl of pasta from one of the many child-friendly restaurants in the area and head to an afternoon “Tot Show” at the nearby Puppet Showplace Theater, and you are bound to have a memorable afternoon.

As a business, Village Baby is committed to giving back to the community from which it draws its strength. We do this through financial and in-kind donations to local schools and community-based organizations aimed at helping children and families in need. Village Baby also offers its customers an opportunity and incentive to participate in this process of giving back: customers who bring a donation of new or lightly-used children’s clothing to the store will receive ten percent off their Village Baby purchase. Village Baby is thus able to make several sizable annual donations to multiple clothing drives as well to respond to individual requests for specific items for families in need.
