Consignment Shops for Kids in the GTA

Shopping and Services

We all know that having children can be expensive. Kids need the right clothing, gear, and toys at every stage of development, and before you know it, they’ve outgrown their old stuff and need more.

Whether you’re buying or selling, consignment shops for kids can be incredibly useful for parents. You can get some cash back for the stuff your kids no longer need and score great deals on gently used, brand-name clothing, gear, toys, and furniture for the next step. Plus, you can feel good about de-cluttering your home, saving money, and recycling. We’ve compiled a list of some great consignment shops for kids located around the GTA. So out with the old and in with the new—well, the new-to-you.

Kid to Kid

This U.S.-based franchise has only one location in Canada, and it’s in Mississauga. Their buyers use software to appraise gently used kids’ and maternity items, which typically takes 20 to 30 minutes, giving you lots of time to browse the store for second-hand goodies.

Their buyers are picky, but that results in a stylish and high-quality selection of kids clothing, gear, and toys.

If Kid to Kid decides to make an offer on your items, you can choose to collect cash or get 20% more than the cash offer in store credit. Visit their website for tips from an expert buyer on how to earn more for your apparel, toys,and equipment.

This Queen East shop is a treasure trove for quality, cool, fashionable used children’s clothing and gear—and it’s just as worthwhile for moms and moms-to-be. It carries a selection of used maternity and nursing wear, and has an in-store changing table and nursing chair for customer use. With gorgeous second-hand baby clothing and equipment, Bumbleberry Kids calls itself “an expecting mom’s best friend.”

Have you heard of having a well-worn baby shower with only pre-loved gifts? At Bumbleberry Kids, the friendly and knowledgeable staff can help you create a registry. Everything you choose will be put aside, photographed, and posted online for your friends and family to choose from.
