Children’s the Place

This place is pretty small. There was two employees working at the time my mom and I came in and I didn’t even know anyone was working here. We didn’t get greeted when we walked in, they were all the way in the back sticking and folding clothes. When I asked to get a price on item the lady seemed a bit flustered and annoyed that I asked. I don’t think I’ll be back anytime soon

I LOVE The Children’s Place. It is one of the best places to buy quality children’s clothing without breaking the bank.
Sizes start at newborn and go through 14, and the clothes gravitate more toward the Circo (Target) and Gymboree lines in terms of style: lots of bright colors, graphic tees, and denim. I love seeing collared shirts and khaki pants for boys, as one of my pet peeves is the way Americans dress their male children, which seems to include sweatpants and sports t-​shirts, more often than not. And The Children’s Place has great holiday collections for Hanukkah/​Christmas outfits. You can also buy school uniforms here.
Unfortunately, the Geneva Commons store is a bit smaller than most, and I often feel like their stock is not quite as impressive as the store at Stratford. You can usually find new items on the shelves, but the sale selection is slim. The staff is not rude, as one reviewer says, but they aren’t warm/​fuzzy either. But I’m not looking to make friends with the staff — in fact, nothing makes me happier than entering a store where I’m not bothered/​harassed by salespeople every time I turn around. The only reason this Children’s Place does not earn four stars in my book is because it’s a smaller store with less selection. Otherwise, it’s a great store, and I would encourage you to shop there if you have young children. The clothes are adorable, and the prices are spectacular!
P. S. — I usually look online at the items I want to buy first, then wait for a sale (which usually arrives every week, so not to worry if there isn’t one when you visit). The best sales of the year are the Monster Sales, which happen in January and June/​July. I usually stock up then, as shirts start at $ 2.99, and pants at about $ 4.99.

Children are expensive, which is one of many reasons that I don’t have one.
After visiting this store, I learned a lesson about the value of a dollar, and it is that you need like fitty of them to buy a full price outfit here. I understand you can shop the sales and get stuff for cheaper but frankly, none of that stuff is as cute and is picked over. From my limited experiences in shopping for children’s clothing, I recommend Target or H&M.
The staff here, rude. Now, I understand that my accomplice and I may not have had toddlers in tow, but we def are of appropriate age… not even a hello. We walked around the store for about fifteen minutes and were the only customers but neither of the two women working even spoke to us. Do these places not get mystery shopped? If it’s worth anything, I am considering myself a vigilante mystery shopper, and these ladies faaailed.
To add insult to injury, I stepped in something sticky and germ ridden that plagued me for the remainder of my visit to the mall.
