I’m so excited to introduce to you my favorite place to get some of my must-have baby products…. Healthy Baby Happy Earth!
It’s a cute little brick and mortar store located in the heart of historic downtown Glendale, specializing in “traditional baby care with a modern twist”. And, for all of you who don’t live in the Phoenix area, they have an online store so you can order from anywhere in the country! They offer a whole variety of products, but if you’re especially interested in natural/organic products, baby wearing, breastfeeding, and/or cloth diapering, then Healthy Baby Happy Earth is definitely one to check out!
Because the store is located in a historic house, all the products are organized by room. It’s adorable and makes it easy to find things! Let’s take a little tour of some of the highlights… This is part of the largest main room that you’ll walk into from the entrance! On the back wall you’ll find a whole array of cloth diapering products with brands like FuzziBunz, BumGenius, Happy Heinys, and more! In the original kitchen, there are a bunch of feeding & bathing products with brands like Skip*Hop, Beaba, Green Sprouts (and more)!
Throughout the store you’ll find great toys, swaddling blankets, diaper bags, and crib products. If you’re interested in baby wearing, they carry a variety of brands & styles to figure out what suits you best!
They even have a room that can be used for private lactation consultants, nursing your baby while shopping, and weight checks. Thus, there are a lot of breastfeeding products in the store!
Breastfeeding products is actually how I stumbled upon the store. Just before my due date with Little Brother (29 months ago), I pulled out my Medela pump and noticed mold in the tubing. I knew I didn’t have enough time to order from Medela and yet, those parts aren’t sold in the larger chain stores. Frantic, I found a list of authorized Medela sellers/stores and there was Healthy Baby Happy Earth. And, honestly, I was so nervous about going. With my breastfeeding struggles and the “crunchy” sounding name, I was worried that I would be met with a lot of overzealous pro-breastfeeding judgement. But, it wasn’t that way at all. I was very pleasantly surprised!
The store is run by a mom & daughter team who genuinely care about what they do and their customers. They listened to me and I didn’t feel any judgement about not being able to exclusively breastfeed at all. Through them, I got extra help & support that I’m not sure I would have found otherwise. I rented a hospital-grade pump from them after the birth of Little Brother and Baby Brother (seeing an increase in my supply with both as compared to Big Brother). I also got connected with a local pediatrician who is also a board certified lactation consultant specializing in moms with breastfeeding issues! It’s the personal touches like these that make it a wonderful place to shop & support.
Why shop here when you can find the products elsewhere?
I personally like supporting small businesses, but aside from that “generic” philosophical reason, here’s a list of things that make Healthy Baby Happy Earth extra special compared to many other baby product retailers:
- Owner is a certified baby wearing expert & instructor for 7 different styles of carriers.
- They have weighted dolls in 3 different sizes so you can really try out things in the store.
- They work with 3 different lactation consultants who offer appointments at the store.
- They work with a local herbalist.
- Weekly free in-store weight checks.
- Offer hospital-grade breast pump rentals.
- Offer 10% off military discount in-store and online.
- You can create an online registry and shop online nationwide.
- You get personal attention & real service and they genuinely care about their customers!
Fabulous, right?! Here’s a peak at what I got after a shopping trip just before Baby Brother was born! I love everything I got! So, whether you need products for yourself or a gift for someone else, I definitely recommend you check them out! And, you have a chance to go shopping for free with this awesome giveaway!

Disclosure: Healthy Baby Happy Earth provided me with store credit to complete this review & is providing the store credit for the giveaway. However, I loved them long before and my opinions/experiences are entirely my own!
I’ve never been but it looks and sounds awesome!
I love that they are so knowledgeable about baby carriers and even have weighted dolls to test them out on. My daughter is 7 months old and we still haven’t been able to get comfortable in our ring sling!
Definitely will stop by and check it out for my new grand baby!
awesome thanks for the chance.

I love that it is family owned. I own a small business (www.etsy.com/shop/uniquevinyldesigns4u) so I LOVE supporting other small businesses.
They seem to offer a lot products that aren’t offered in other places. I also like the idea of weighted dolls to try out carriers.
Sometimes it’s nice to be able to touch items before you buy. It looks like a fun place to find a friendly baby item.
This looks like such a great little store! My kids are probably too big for the key products here, but I have a friend expecting soon and she would LOVE this place. 🙂
Great products!!

Wow, I wish I lived close! I love that the owner is a babywearing expert and they actually have different sized babies for you to test drive the carriers! That’d be soooo handy.

Andrea,
We just stopped in today and the daughter (one of the owners) did a quick baby wearing class. They have such cute stuff! Plus love that it’s in the old downtown Glendale Catlin Court shops.
I love that they made you feel comfortable when you went to the store. I live nearby, and I would love to go browse!
The cloth diapering
Love all the natural products.
I love that they have an online store, though I wish I could shop at their store and benefit from all the services they offer.
