Aldea Home & Baby

We like many are guilty of not writing enough deserving reviews, but our experience with Aldea & the team has left us inspired. Our whole experience shopping and learning with them has continuously left us in awe. The passion and knowledge the team shares goes above and beyond expectations, and we feel lucky to have had Aldea as a resource. Not only did we find the majority of what we were looking for, but we were even able to book a car seat installation appointment, where you are shown, and then guided to install/uninstall the seat. In all honesty, without this guidance, us doing this alone would have involved a lot of frustration, likely ending in worry as to whether we did it correctly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Again, thank you for the continued impressionable experiences that we will share with others. You make preparing to be parents feel so much better and we cannot thank you enough. We can't wait for our next visit.

I am writing to express my disappointment with a recent encounter my husband and I had at your store. We visited your store to purchase a stroller. We received assistance from one of your employees, and it was already placed at the cashier for payment. While we were managing our son and approaching the cashier, we were unexpectedly approached by another store worker who insisted we leave within two minutes, citing the store's closing time was 6PM. It was disheartening to feel rushed and pressured, especially considering we were in the process of making a legitimate purchase. The comment that "here in California, we let our employees leave on time" left us feeling unwelcome and we left without purchasing the stroller. As customers, we understand the importance of respecting closing hours, but it seemed unreasonable to be chased out while actively trying to complete a purchase that was initiated. We believe that a more considerate approach could have been taken, given the circumstance of finalizing a significant transaction. The store is cute and carries many items so I see why people would end up there to buy baby items in SF, however there are places that sell the same things and employees actually speak to customers respectfully. We value our shopping experiences and hope that this feedback can contribute to a more customer-friendly environment in the future. Note: We bought the same stroller at Bloomingdales the following day at 10% off..

First time parents looking for baby stuff and thought this was going to be the perfect place. Upon walking in employees seemed very uninterested in us. We tried asking questions but never really got answers that were helpful. We were excited for this first time shopping experience but didn't turn out like we hoped

So happy I had the opportunity to stop here during my trip to San Francisco! This lovely shop is expertly curated with a wide range of high-quality baby gear to suit a variety of parenting/caretaking needs. In addition to the latest UPPAbaby and Nuna stroller and car seat models, they also had a great Silver Cross and Cybex selection--it was sooooo nice to FINALLY be able to test drive a Gazelle! There's a nice selection of nursery furniture (Ouef, Monte), clothes, toys, high chairs (all the Stokke options), and just about any other gear you might need for your little one. The sales associates were very friendly and helpful; they know their products inside and out. All in all it was a great experience, and I will definitely be creating a registry here to integrate with my Babylist. SF parents-to-be, don't sleep on this shop; it's rare to find a store with kind of quality and expertise, and I hope it remains a staple on Valencia St. for many years to come!
