Maternity stores in Christchurch

“Approxmetly 8.43pm 29/12/25. Such wonderful service this evening from Wendy. I went to queue and she dropped what she was doing to ask me to come to the desk so she could serve me. I had a bag of kettles and a 90L Sistema storage container. She asked me how my day was and if I had a busy Xmas. She was very easy to engage with after a long day at work. She discussed about the great price of the Sistema containers and may have mentioned that, at that price you could get two! It was indeed good value and her upsell almost made me buy another one. I will discuss with my wife this evening and may come back and buy another two. Keep this wonderful wahine on, she is very motivated and an asset to your store!”

“Visited Postie at midday on Monday 30 June with my grandchildren. The young lady in the shop was so helpful searching for the correct sized top for my grandson. Then the lady on the till was equally helpful helping out with my granddaughters clothing. Highly professional and friendly staff.”

“These girls in here today (Tuesday) are a great team! So friendly, helpful and just genuinely doing an awesome job. They are so lucky to have you both!”

“I had an important document to get printed in a very specific way, and being without my laptop and tight on time, Esther very patiently and kindly gave me different options and helped me in a very professional way. I know it’s not the kind of things they do and she went above and beyond to help. Her calm manner and focus gave me the reassurance I needed. Great staff. ☺️”

“Good car parking very near to the back entrance of Barrington mall Clean entrance. Easy to get around. Lots of specials easily visible. Ailse clear. Plenty of staff visible to ask for help. Available to get ladders to look for other stock. Very clear setup of different sections within the shop. Friendly and smiling checkout staff.”

“I absolutely love shopping here. The store has an amazing selection of high-quality children's items at affordable prices. Everything is clean, well-organised, and in excellent condition. The staff is incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the whole shopping experience so enjoyable. It’s clear they care about their customers and the items they stock. The ability to provide my items to the store to sell on my behalf makes my life a lot easier. Highly recommend this store to any parents looking for great deals without compromising on quality.”

“Penelope was fantastic today. It was Sunday and busy but she took the time to assess my walking and give me really good options. She made me feel at ease and no question was silly to her. I walked in really nervous and walked out very happy with my Mizanos. Great work and thank you!”

“I visited today as a first time shopper with The Fitting Room and was served by Jade. She was so lovely and made me feel comfortable and at ease, which I didn’t think was going to be possible as this was very out of my comfort zone. She was so helpful and patient with me and took on my feedback and looked for items that would better suit me. I left with two pairs of togs and two bra and knicker sets and that’s thanks to her great service. Well done and thank you very much, I will be back ❤️”

“PIPS is a treasure. I love how welcoming, non-judgmental and thoughtful they are. They've been our rock, helping us with clothing, a capsule, carseat, highchair and more. PIPS lightened the financial and emotional load for us. If you're reading this in need of some help as a mum or dad of a little one, they are the village you're looking for. You need only ask.”

“I phoned and was able to make a very last minute appointment to be fitted for a sports bra. The lady on the phone was lovely and very accommodating. The staff in the store were kind, warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and non-judgemental. I was initially concerned about how much I would be paying for a sports bra, but for $100 (very reasonable when you've tried and failed in a multitide of other stores to find a 16G!) I got a very comfortable, very supportive sports bra, and a wonderful experience with some truly lovely ladies. Will definitely be shopping here again!”

“Lovely little OP Shop, always a collection of random free items outside and very well organised items inside. The board behind the counter with all the dogs that are being helped out by the charity just add to it and it's great knowing that anything spent here is going to such a good charity. Grabbed so many different bits and bobs for the house from here and always pop in if I'm in the area.”

“I have been in Smarty Pants a number of times, sometimes I'm not quite sure what gift I'm after, last time it was for my 10yo nephew who lived in Australia. After being asked a few thoughtful questions the retail assistant offered some suggestions and showed me a couple of items, it was perfect! The best service, she really took the time to help me without any of the pushiness. Really friendly and positive. The shop itself is treasure, laid out beautifully with high quality items. Back for sure, next time its lunchboxes! From past experience, I know that they will talk me through the options so I get the right one!”

“A great pharmacy with such helpful staff. They have provided a professional service over many years to my family”

“I was unsure of my size and ended up getting fitted by Amy yesterday. She was kind, caring and patient with me! I Came in for a bra. left with 3x sets and 4x G-strings. She made the experience fun and made me feel like she genuinely cared. I Will definitely be asking for her every time I go in as she was amazing!! Thank you ❤”

“I also have an amazing experience with this brand. Went in today just to have a look around. I sit at the top end of the cup size range and often struggle to find fun and sexy bras. I told the sale assent my size and showed her some examples of things I liked. She managed to pull 5+ bras for me to try. Everything fitted and it was one of the most positive shopping experiences I've had. Absolutely made my day and made me feel good about myself. Also the team are just so lovely we had a good chat and laughed.”

“Absolutely amazing service from a young lady working here. She helped me find the best bras to complement my figure. Her sizing advice was spot on. She even gave me a new style to try that I surprisingly loved. Not only are the staff lovely, but so are the deals honestly worth the 20-minute drive for me. I was able to buy 4 bras for $150. This is amazing considering I went to a store the weekend prior, and it would've come to $245. If you are looking for kind, fast, service and some good deals, I recommend giving this place a go.”

“Dylan, you nailed it! One happy man with 2 pairs of work jeans in under 15 mins! Lovely service and eager to help! Thankyou for saving me an hour of ummmmm and errrrrrr with Mr Indecisive.”

“Volunteered here. Heaps of fun. Manager competent and treated me well.”

“What a beautiful place to shop the staff are amazing thoroughly recommend this op shop lovely ladies”

“Definitely my favorite visit here regularly.”

“My husband and I recently came here to look at prams and car seats. As first time parents it can be a minefield navigating the information and product overload! The staff here were super helpful and talked us through all our options. We ended up going with a great pram and capsule hire combo which we're super happy with. Just waiting on the arrival of our new addition to start using it! Thanks so much for all your help team.”

“Although the sizings are unusual, I had a fantastic customer service experience with a very helpful shop assistant who even ran after me when I had left something in the changing rooms. Made my day getting such exceptional customer service, which seems to be a dying art these days!”

“I was shopping for my little cousin for Christmas and I was helped out by a lovely staff member his name was Oscar, I didn’t end up buying anything but now I’ll know for next time I come in. I’ll definitely be coming back! Such a friendly guy thank you!!”

“Young lady working on her own very helpful and friendly.. she was busy doing everything. Including restocking , helping customers, checkout, and running to rear of store to get pick ups. Prices competitive. All good”

“I was looking for a bra and decided to inquire about a bra fitting and I'm so glad I did. Despite my initial nervousness, the experience proved pleasant. A sales member began by asking my preference then checking bra fits, later consulting a colleague for another opinion. This resulted in a smooth process, and pinpointing the perfect bra. Both assistants ensured my comfort throughout. Unfortunately, I have forgotten their names but thank you so very much.”

“Incredible Sophie was one of the best sales staff I’ve ever had the pleasure of encountering. She was knowledgeable, kind and professional. I walked out with 2 sets she recommended, a lot more knowledge about the fit of my bras and a very hearty “I’ll be back”.”
