A friend has had a baby recently.

She lives in Canada and I want to send her a present for the baby.

Last year I went on Petit Bateau.fr and ordered some cute stuff for a friend who lives in France. She had also had a baby. I avoided any taxes and duties. It was delivered right to her.

I wish to do the same, anyone got any websites for similar baby stores but Canadian?

Get a gift for her personally instead

Ethical baby clothes - mini mioche
High end everything - snuggle bugz
Good all around - West coast kids
Indigo is our big bookstore chain and they always have lovely baby things
Deux par deux is another clothing one, I’ve only gotten snowsuits but everything looks nice

Avoid anywhere that doesn’t have a physical store, a lot (even Walmart online) sell cheap imported crap that doesn’t fit safety standards.

Most cities have a few nice independent places too.

Gap or Old Navy both have nice baby things - oldnavy.gapcanada.ca/ for the Canadian site. Old Navy is owned by Gap and they share a website.

Souris Mini is a nice one

Most local brands ship it's not cheap because well its Canada!!. Don't go for Old navy or Gap as suggested. They are both American brands.
