Why online shopping often makes sense for moms

Expectant mothers sometimes look at us like we're a little crazy when we suggest that they, who might live in Toronto (where Evymama Nursing & Maternity is located), should shop our web store when the baby comes along and have their nursing pyjamas, nursing pads, and nursing tops delivered to them.

"Why would I shop a Toronto store online when I live here?" or "why would I pay for shipping when I can pick it up for free?", they might be wondering.

Well, your time becomes extremely precious when you have a child, and your "free time" is even more so. You might need a few things when the baby is born that you would really love to rush out and get, but you really could be relaxing and getting breastfeeding off to a good start instead, which is what I humbly suggest that you do for the first ten days or so.

Don't feel silly for shopping a local store online. I do it all the time, and my kids are 6 and 4 years old. I don't really have time for shopping except for late at night when my little people are asleep, and my shop is closed.

If cost is your concern, just think of what your fuel is costing, or that a TTC round trip is $6.00. The $8.00 expedited shipping rate from Evymama to get the breastfeeding supplies you need starts to look pretty manageable, especially since you can sip your tea [coffee] as you shop, and never have to so much as put on your shoes to get them.

Check us out, even if it's just to choose your items in advance of a real-life visit: we have a "pick up in store" option, so you can actually shop our store from home and have your parcel picked up, avoiding shipping fees and saving you lots of time.

We'll take good care of you either way, and the tea is on the house when you stop in.
