EcoBambino

This is a great store. They are the only ones in town who carry cloth diapers. They have a good selection and the best part is that they offer a cloth diapering class, so if you are wondering whether that’s soemthing you want to do, this is the place to get your questions answer.

I’ve always loved EcoBambino for gifts and now that I have a baby myself, it is my go-​to whenever I am in downtown SLO.
Their cloth diaper selection is awesome and they have lots of good practical items!
Some stuff may be a little more pricey but it is environmentally conscious and local, which makes me feel good about my purchases.
I also love that they hold classes and have a nursing nook.

I live in Los Angeles but every time we go pass San Luis Obispo I stop by and shop. I’ve gotten so many items from them from a high chair, which they shipped directly to my house, to sippy cups, to cloth diaper covers. I always need to save before I shop here because we always spend a good amount of money. Now that I’ve had our daughter I’m excited when we can go back up there and do some shopping for her!!!

I steered clear of this place for a long time because I knew it would be really expensive but I ventured in here because I needed a gift for my friend who is expecting soon! I really love supporting local businesses too.
Send your kids to the back to play and start shopping! They have so many cute items and yes they are expensive but totally unique!
Free beautiful gift wrapping and they sell gift cards too in case you have trouble picking out something.

Incredible store! They have a great selection of goods and the staff is very knowledgeable about the products the carry. One associate in particular was very helpful in teaching us about the cloth diapering selection. Our son is due next month and I will definitely be a repeat customer as our needs grow along with our son.

Every time I go in this store, I end up buying more than I planned because I fall in love with about 20 things. They have so much awesome merchandise! Everything I have bought for my friends’ kids here has been a huge hit!
This is not the place to go for discount merchandise. You’ll pay a little more than you would elsewhere, but you get quality for your dollar. The clearance rack is usually full of some good stuff if you’re looking for a deal though.
To top it off, the staff has always been incredibly nice and helpful. It is always a pleasure to shop here.

I am a new grandma and was excited to visit this store. I’d heard lots of good things about it. Unfortunately, my experience was not good. While I was shopping at the store last Thursday evening, a young mom with a baby in a stroller near me was given a banana toothbrush for her baby by the sales girl. The sales girl told her that she had some that didn’t have packaging and weren’t sellable, so they were giving them away. I asked if I could have one. She said, «We’ll see…» which I understood to mean that if I bought something she would give me a toothbrush as well. I found something to buy, paid for it, and she wrapped it very nicely. When done I asked about the toothbrush– she said it was only for regular customers and purchases over $ 25. My toy cost $ 11. I said that that hadn’t been made clear, and that is why I bought the toy. She said, «sorry’…but still no toothbrush! With the confusion caused by her vagueness, I can’t imagine that she didn’t offer me a toothbrush even though I didn’t buy enough. I have many years to buy things for my grandson, and I am not much inclined to buy them at this store. What a shame– I love the concept, love their products and love that it’s locally owned.

I upgraded my review to four stars because of the way the owner reached out to me after reading about the problem I had shopping there. That was a rare response from a business owner.

This store is amazing! My wife and I were driving through SLO on a sunday on our way back to LA, when we decided to stop in town and stretch our legs. We had our three month old son with us and thought it would be good to get him out of his carseat for a bit. We came into this store about 20 minutes before closing. We were greeted right away by the owner who was very nice and helpful. We chatted a little bit and she allowed us to shop for a minute without feeling rushed even though it was closing time. My wife and I were sooo pleased with the service, we felt right at home and wish we could do all our baby shopping there. We live in l.a. and go to «giggle» in pasadena for similar products but never really get good service. Thank you guys so much and we hope to be back real soon on our next trip up!

I love this store and all of the fantastic items they have. We bought tons of cloth diapers in here for our kids. Also, the eco friendly toys and eating utensils are GREAT! It is so nice to have a place in town that we can go to rather than purchasing the products off the internet. They also have a great place for kids to play while you shop.

I love this store, we’re so lucky to have it in SLO! I’ve been coming here since I was pregnant and 3 years later am still going back for art supplies, clothes and gifts for my daughter. Everyone that works here is so nice and helpful, and I love that there is a play area for kids while we’re shopping :)

I could spend hours in this store looking at every little thing! They have such an amazing variety of things, I have bought shoes, toys, pillow and cases, Charlie’s Soap, and I would have taken one of everything else! I adore all the cute, natural fiber clothing they have. I found Ariana’s internet based business when I moved the the Central Coast in 2010. It is nice to see someone who worked hard get rewarded with such a wonderful store. Good job Ladies!

I knew I loved this place from the moment it had me screaming «awww, how cute!» repeatedly in front of its window displays.
The stuff in this shop is absolutely adorable. Prices are a tad high, but who can blame them since the rents are high in this area. Each item of clothing and all of the toys though are so incredibly unique, this is the perfect place to buy a shower gift.

Do you feel the need to pamper your kid? Do you have loads of money burning a whole in your pocket? Well then this is your store. Lots of cute things for your kid, there’s no way you won’t find something!

I really like this store. They have activity time for little ones and the sales people are super friendly and have great suggestions when you are looking for gifts. I went to this store looking for baby shower items and not only were they on par with online and big store prices, but they gift wrapped everything and were super nice. There were darling little baby bonnets and hand made items, bamboo, bpa free items. Food prep, reuseable diapers and strollers, lots of good gear!

I love this new shop downtown! I bought the cutest little panda backpack for my «little traveler» and it was a huge hit! Super cute stuff, but the lady that was there helping me (I believe one of the owners) was what really sealed the deal! I will definitely return, and continue to send others there as well.

This place rocks! They used to always have a booth at San Luis’ Farmer’s Market but has since moved into their very own store front. Lots of eco friendly clothes, baby gear and best of all toys! They carry all kinds of eco-​friendly toys such as Plan Toys, Green Toys, and lots of other «wooden» and high quality toys that are priced competitively with some online shops. To add they will be starting activities for the kids which gives local parents another alternative for things to do in the downtown. Shop local and check out Eco Bambino for some really quality toys and other cool baby gear. My kids absolutely love them!
