A Pea In The Pod

Great selection, helpful staff, variety of brands. Recommended for anything from work to swim, exercise to sleep.

Went into buy some pregnancy stuff for a friend and I didn’t know how much things can change in 6years since I was visiting that store. Mari (I think that was her name) helped me. She introduced me to new items as well as the classics. She was extremely sweet and patient as I know I am a pain the tush customer! I need time and attention which she did give me all the while still not making other customers wait! Honestly it was a really amazing experience I almost felt like buying some maternity clothing because it was so cute!!! lol… Loved my visit however I don’t think I will go in again due to two things:
–I am not pregnant
–it will tempt me to have another one just to purchase items.
Side note: the store was kept organized and smelled clean and floors where good. Windows were also cleaned clothing properly hung for the people that would like to know.

I’m giving two stars for selection and for one lady who is extremely helpful there. Unfortunately, she is the only one. (She must be a manager…) I think her name starts with a J or Y. (There’s one girl who works there (and seems to be there every time I go) that just shouldn’t be working in retail whatsoever. She’s clueless about company policy and just does an awful job. For example, I asked her to hold something for me while I went to another store. I came back 30 minutes later. She had put it back and we had to go through the racks to find it!!! Total waste of time.)
Anyway, every time I’ve come in here and haven’t been helped by that one helpful lady, it has been a nightmare. I hate that it’s the only real option you have for maternity clothes at the mall, and mostly in the sherman oaks area. Yes, you can go to Target, but this place has better variety and selection. Just be prepared to overpay… $ 30 for a tank top, $ 45-​$ 100 for a pair of plain black leggings, $ 50 for a shirt, $ 100+ for some other items.
Best advice is to join their newsletter and watch for sales. They do have a decent sale section in the back, as well as nursing bras that they will fit you for. (Hint: use a nursing tank until your milk comes in and then get measured.)
One final plus is that they have a water cooler there and you can help yourself. (Smart thinking when your main demographic is pregnant women…)

Being pregnant is not easy lol, and shopping is not easy either. It should be declared an olympic sport after 5 months. I find myself drifting to A Pea in the Pod frequently bc nothing fits me! They have a great selection of shorts, leggings, shirts, dresses, basically anything you need to get you through summer. I don’t want to spend too much on maternity clothing, so they have a great selection of stuff that can be work even after your little one arrives.
I am really leaving the stars for the sales associates. Yessica and Daisy are great, they are very attentive and genuine. They remind you when you have credits or bump bucks to spend, and are in no way pushy. I just find them so kind and welcoming.
So if you are looking for some stylish, comfortable clothes to get you through 9 – 10 months of pregnancy, head over here and ask for these lovely ladies.

I’m only leaving 5 stars because the sales lady was so helpful the couples times I went in. She was very knowledgeable about pregnancy and maternity wear. Not very pushy at all and really made me feel at ease. I frequent this location to pick up items here and there.

Just went to this store for the first time last week and the staff was super helpful in finding exactly what I was looking for. I searched many other maternity stores in the valley (Glendale, Burbank, etc) for upscale work wear with no luck until I got to this store. The selection and store set up was excellent. The staff was very knowledgeful and showed many great options. I walked out very happy!

no refund no exhange on sale items, final sale.
store credit or exhange only, up to 10 days after purchase.
$ 98 t-​shirts!!!
only buy your designer jeans and make sure they fit. sit down, bend over, walk around the store to make sure you want them. they will be yours forever.

All locations are a nightmare. The return policy is 10 – 14 days, which is fine, it’s stated right on the receipt. I tried to return a pair of slacks that were a birthday gift, with the tags all in place (with price), and gift receipt. I had literally tried it on for 10 seconds, noticed the fit isn’t great, and decided to return it. The sale associate (very obnoxious) said they were not in returnable condition. She finally realized what she was saying is crazy, and decided to do it «this one time».
The worst part about this store is the Parenting Magazine scam! They offer you 2 free issues, and next thing you know, you’re slapped with a bill from Parenting Magazine, and no one at either company answers the phone.
AVOID THIS STORE! VERY OVERPRICED, HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE IN-​PERSON AND ON THE PHONE, AND INCESSANT EMAIL SPAM AND SCAMS.

I am not preggers.
I know one might think so seeing me today after polishing off a steak and lobster and creamed corn dinner at 2am last night, but newp, I’m just a pig :)
But, if YOU are preggers or have a lovely gal pal who is looking to stay stylish during her 9 month stint of actually not having to suck her stomach in, then this is a great store! By no means is it cheap, but their stuff is quality and if you are one of those moms that is going to be really cool and pass down your clothes to your friends, then this is great because they will last.
They also have the most kick ass diaper bags here and after seeing one of them once, I thought, «Hmm, okay, I could see being a mom and rocking that.» Tells ya something doesn’t it… she’s making the decision to be a mom based on a purse, yep, clearly I’m not headed for that world anytime soon :)
So check it out as it is one of the few good stores in this mall and they have gift certificates which are pretty great and come in really cute packaging!
