Buddha Baby

Budda Baby RULES!!! Brianna is super nice and helpful. I can’t wait to make a trip back down!

Super knowledgable on all their products they carry. I purchased a baby wrap sling and I feel so comfortable wearing it. I will also be going to a class in the next few weeks. I was planning on stopping by for a minute and ended up there for about an hour or two!!! Very empowering store for mommas. Especially breast-​feeding mommas!

My search for a Tula Blanket on a weekend started here. I called and spoke with Brianna, what a sweetheart she is. I spent a good 5 minutes of her time on the phone Tula Talking. I’m looking forward to meeting her soon, looking at all the goodies at her place online is heavenly.
Thank You Brianna

Attended a free baby wearing class there today and the owner, Briana, was very informative and incredibly knowledgeable. Ended up leaving with a Sakura bloom ring sling and she even showed me how to nurse in it– definitely worth the trip.

I’ve been in Buddha Baby now three times and I’m just in AWE! Brianna is so cool and she is AMAZING with her customers! She is so professional and knowledgeable in baby wearing, she makes every mama feel comfortable and makes them pros at baby wearing! If you want to know A N Y T H I N G about cloth diapering, baby wearing, natural parenting, or just parenting in general the very best place to go is to see Brianna @ Buddha Baby! You can trust that everything in the store is the best for your baby and family, as Brianna and her staff are knowledgeable about all things parenting. There aren’t many baby stores left in San Diego, but there doesn’t have to be more than ONE if this is where you shop!

loved this place. my wife had tons and tons of questions and the lady was super nice and patiently answered my wifes questions. so many choices to chose from. designs are cool

Buddha Baby is amazing! I have a two-​week old, and have found Buddha Baby to be an invaluable resource both during my pregnancy and since my son was born. Not only is there a great selection of cloth diapers and carriers, but owner Brianna is a wealth of knowledge. Whether it’s through her classes (the overview classes are free, and the small-​group in-​depth workshops have a very reasonable tuition fee), or simply by chatting with her when you stop by, you will leave armed with all of the information and practice you need once you get home. If you are at all curious about cloth diapering or baby wearing, this is definitely the place to start.

Although I always enjoy visiting to drool over the fabulous selection of carriers, I was beyond pleasantly surprised when I stopped by and was able to stock up on adorable moccasins for my kiddo.
I love having this store local to me and as an OB/​Gyn I often tell my patients to come check it out and hopefully catch the babywearing bug. Keep up the good work Brianna!

So much to love about this place. I am ecstatic I found it!
1. The selection of carriers is pretty decent– I walked out with my very first ringsling (hooray for babywearing)
2. The owner is really sweet and knowledgable… she took the time to show me how to use the RS (watch as many tutorials as you want, not the same as having someone walk you through the steps!)
3. They seem to have a really positive mission for bringing San Diego mommas together through classes and education (can’t wait for the upcoming classes).
4. It always feels good to support local businesses (and fellow moms) :-)
5. It’s very kid friendly. unlike some of the other places I’ve been. probably helps that she has her adorable baby and daughter with her (as a new mom this made me feel totally at ease knowing if my baby started screaming his head off or if I needed to feed him, there’d be an understanding mother behind the counter who likely wouldn’t even bat an eye)

What gem in San Diego! I haven’t had a baby in a while and things have changed so much in 10 years! The owner is an amazing wealth of knowledge about diapering to baby wearing. They have great classes too so you don’t feel intimidated. It is a must stop for anyone who wants to parent more naturally. They just need to get an online presence so my family from out of town can get us stuff for the new baby!

Finally, a boutique and resource for us natural conscious mamas! I came for the Tula baby carriers but found SO MUCH more. Brianna is a really friendly and hip mama who knows a ton about babywearing, cloth diapering and all that good stuff. She was so helpful in sharing her knowledge and she was super patient and kind, being a mom herself, when my 2yo kept wandering and grabbing stuff. It’s really great they have free classes on babywearing and cloth diapering. It’s hard to find a place that carries natural parenting items like this, but here it is in central San Diego,

This boutique is a must-​visit for anyone with a baby/​toddler, or anyone wanting to give a wonderful, thoughtful gift. The owner, Brianna, is a babywearing educator who will help you with your wrap or SSC questions. There are Tula ring slings and Emibaby carriers you can pet. There are leather moccasins, plastic-​free silicon snack containers, and several A Wholesome Home products. And Hape toys! I may have squeed. There’s a wonderful play area for kids to play while parents shop, ask questions, or just have an adult conversation.
On my visit I meant just to pick up baby-​safe nail polish for my toddler, but I left with Buncha Farmers soaps and a doll baby carrier (which my daughter has not stopped obsessing over since I brought it home). And I had to talk myself out of buying more amber jewelry.
They offer free cloth diaper and babywearing classes every other week. And I believe the back room will be used for other classes as well. I’m excited to keep an eye on what they offer.

Lovely neighborhood boutique with a lovely proprietor! Brianna is passionate about educating parents and about the excellent products she sells. It’s so nice to have her and her sweet family in Normal Heights.

What a nice boutique! They have a good range (getting more styles/​types in soon) of natural baby and momma items and accessories: cloth diapers, developmental toys, baby wearing carriers/​slings/​wraps, and natural products for pregnancy, postpartum care, and babies. The owner is very knowledgeable and would definitely be one of those people to provide one on one help or answer questions for any of the products sold there.
I attended the baby wearing class and it was very informative. We were able to try on any of the carriers shown! They are remodeling half of the store to hold classes better.
The hours are limited, but it’a definitely worth it to swing in!

A wonderful little baby boutique for the semi-​crunchy/​Eco-​friendly parent. Smallish but strong selection of cloth diapers and accessories. Ditto with baby carriers/​slings. I think it’s the only place in central SD that carries Tulas. And they also have amber teething necklaces!
I came in just to get RLR to strip diapers, and also ended up buying an amber necklace, Piggy Paint, and a diaper cover. The friendly mama at the counter gave me EXCELLENT advice on improving my cloth diaper washing routine.
The hours might be inconvenient, but I’m happy to support a local mama-​owned business.

I took the cloth diapering class this Wednesday and I am very glad I did. The class gave me some good starting points and It was great to be see that I am not alone in my decision to use cloth instead of disposable. I can’t wait to go back for a baby wearing class soon.

This place is a little gem in San Diego! If you are into babywearing or you want to learn how this is a great place to come. They have several different types of baby carriers and slings for sale. You can try on any of them and the staff are really knowledgeable about the carriers. The free babywearing class is a great way to learn about babywearing and you can meet other moms. They also have cloth diaper classes too. They sell an array of baby stuff and all of it is eco-​friendly.

Unfortunately, I haven’t had a chance to shop here because on the 4 different ocassions that I’ve tried, it has been closed during business hours. Not a good business practice or a good sign =(
Hopefully the next time I’m around (which is every weekday since my son’s daycare is down the street), they will be open for me to take a look around and just MAYBE purchase something.

So friendly, and so helpful. I took one of their free babywearing classes and got to ask my questions and try on a couple different carriers. Thanks ladies! I’ll be back for a ring sling when I see that you have it! ;)
PS: it’s in the corner, across the street from Starbucks. Tricky to see at first, but street parking wasn’t so bad in the neighborhood.

My wife was really eager to reach this place on time since she was normally out at three and this place closes at 2. So we get there a but after two. The lady was super patient considering the fact that my wife had literally about 25 questions!!! I advised my wife to hurry up and purchase what we came for and even though the lady had to close she was pretty down to earth and welcoming! Definitely loved the Tula Baby Carried we purchased from here and we plan on coming back on another day off to purchase more baby stuff. Huge 5 star! If I could id give more!
