Hi friends! We miss you!

We miss offering you great in-person service and expertise in cloth diapering and babywearing, and our awesome selection of baby & children’s gifts.

We would love it if you would support other local, small businesses. When you shop local you boost your local economy, support real people in your own community, reduce your carbon footprint AND find great quality, interesting items! Win-win-win!

So, we made a list to get you started. Check out our website to see a list of where to look for baby carrier and cloth diaper support, as well as a big list of our bestselling & favourite products and where to find them in Hamilton!

Hi friends! We miss you!

The thing we miss the *most* about Barefoot Babies is our Community Space. We loved hosting our community in a comfortable, accessible, safe space; a place that was easy to bring your kids and to be yourself, even if that meant being sad and messy (because let’s face it — parenting is sad and messy some days!)

We loved seeing friendships develop and people support each other, sharing advice and solidarity over tea and cookies from down the street (shoutout to Dora's Delicatessen & Catering and The Hearty Hooligan ✨)

Thankfully our space was far from the only place where this kind of magic community-building is happening.
We’ve put together a list of places and resources to leave on our website: https://barefootbabies.ca/pages/parent-resources

Get all the details there, since not all of the organizations are on this platform for us to tag. We hope that many of you will find community, support and friendship in these places and more!

541 Donations Update!

Since 2018, we’ve collected donations for 541 Eatery & Exchange. So many of you added “a button” or a few every time you purchased from us, and with your help we’ve donated a total of $7750 to their button program!

Thank you for your generosity and caring for our fellow Hamiltonians 💕

541 remains temporarily closed as they do some problem solving to be able to run more sustainably. Hamilton has a shortage of affordable, stable housing and a host of other factors contributing to the suffering of many neighbours. 541 wasn’t equipped to handle the rapidly growing number of community members needing food and support.
The 541 team is working hard to develop policies and secure needed funding to be able to operate safely and sustainably in this changing landscape.

Their youth programming has continued throughout the closure. **Donations are still needed** and are vital to support a gradual re-opening that will hopefully start in the fall. Please consider continuing to donate regularly, directly through their website at www.fivefortyone.ca
and follow along for updates and other ways to support here:

Some of you have been asking who’s getting custody of our demo dolls (Peaches, Braxton, Hicks and Acorn) once we close?😂

We’re so happy that they have all found a new home — with local Hamilton doula Sonya who will continue to use them to practice babywearing with clients! Yay!!

These dolls have helped us facilitate hundreds of baby carrier lessons over the years.
It’s bittersweet to say goodbye, but we are so glad that they’ll continue to help parents learn safe, comfortable babywearing skills 🥰

We can’t believe it’s our final week. It’s hard to process!

There’s not much left in the store, but there are a few great deals yet to be had! If you’re able, we’d love to see you at the shop this week.

👋 On Saturday, we will be having a farewell party in the Community Space. We are open from 10-4, but will have some specific party things happening from 11-2!
More details to come. Plan to join us if you can!

All of our drop-in groups are running this week for one last hurrah!

🌈 Q***r Family Drop-in on Tuesday morning from 10-11:30

🍪 Milk & Cookies breastfeeding social group on Wednesday afternoon from 1-2:30

📚 Storytime with Miss Jen on Friday morning at 10:30

🧸 followed by Barefoot Parenting drop-in playgroup til 12:30!

We hope to see many of your beautiful faces this week!! *You* are what makes Barefoot Babies so special, and having you visit is what we will miss the most.
