It's not listed on any of the price tags, but it's included free of charge on each and every item that Boomers and Echoes Kids & Maternity sells - quality.
Since first opening its doors on Lonsdale Avenue in 1985 to its current location at the Westview Shopping Centre, Boomers & Echoes has been providing customers with quality service by friendly and knowledgeable staff, quality consignment clothing and equipment and a quality selection of the newest and best designer brand name products.
A family business, Boomers & Echoes prides itself on featuring an ever-changing assortment of safe, sustainable and eco-minded products. From organic baby carriers to natural and fashionable footwear for baby's first steps, Boomers & Echoes offers valuable resources for mothers from the very first days of their pregnancy right up through the joyful days of being a parent.
Whether it's for bath time, bedtime, mealtime or playtime, Boomers & Echoes is the place to help bring out the very best in your baby.
Besides their own practical experience, the owners and staff of Boomers have soaked up more than a few strollers' worth of baby wisdom from visiting parents over the years, and are even now witnessing a full-circle, generational turnover in the store's lifetime - many new and expectant mothers relate that their own mother brought them to Boomers as a child and they've returned now that they're expecting their own bundle of joy.
The Boomers & Echoes staff are also trained maternity and nursing bra fitters and baby-carrier experts, as well as BCAA certified car seat technicians that offer free safety-check appointments for a small donation to a local charity. Recently, the store generated enough donations through its car seat inspection program to send a number of underprivileged children to Camp Elkhaven on Denman Island.
Boomers & Echoes also offers a unique rental service that allows grandparents, babysitters and parents visiting Vancouver alike easy access to a wide range of equipment such as car and booster seats, high chairs, strollers, cribs, and even breast pumps and fetal heart monitors.
For those who have a baby shower coming up on the calendar, the Boomers & Echoes website allows visitors to either create or search for a specific gift registry by name, and since the lists are kept online instead of printed in-store, it's in line with the sustainable and eco-conscious values on which the company was founded. As true believers in maintaining a green and sustainable planet for future generations, Boomers & Echoes prides itself on keeping high standards on consignment items, leading to an excellent turnover of a vast array of quality goods.
Boomers & Echoes is located adjacent to the McDonalds in the Westview Shopping Centre right off the Upper Levels Highway in North Vancouver. 626-6201 Westview Drive, North Vancouver, 604-984-6163.
