Best childrens clothing store in Sarasota, Florida (FL) 2024

It's been a while since I've been to this store. I was there this morning and wow what a difference since the last time I was there. The last time I was there it was like a standard department store. Clean and lot's of inventory to choose from. This morning when I went there it looked like they're getting ready to close the place. Hardly any inventory and the whole back was closed off. it also wasn't very clean. Had kind of a grungy feel to it. Definitely won't be back. Better off going to Burdines or Marshalls if your looking for deals in a clean atmosphere. ~Neil

I only went to Macy's to look, but they always have something nice that catches the eyes!!! Oh they had some nice Colognes and perfumes. And who can resist the jewelry.. I couldn't. Whatever you can't find in the store, the associates are more than happy to help you find online or at another store. They can order it for you and have it shipped directly to your home. Mark, a very nice young man at the Jewelry counter, helped me do just that. ~A

Can somebody check on these people that work here? Last month I asked a man who was managing the store that day if by chance the fitting rooms upstairs were open. I was greeted with an agressive "NO! We are understaffed because nobody wants to work here!" I said okay... So fast forward today, I go into the store again with a friend. And the fitting room was open! Awesome! We wait in line. Immediately greeted with weirdness by the fitting room employee. My friend didn't know she was talking to her so the employee says really loud, WELL IGNORE ME THEN! Should have said something there but I let it slide. Two minutes later I hear another employee come in her dressing room to call her an inconsiderate person. Why you ask? because she walked out of the room for literally 10 seconds to show me the blazer she wanted for her new job, while there was a line. They say they are understaffed. We were only in the fitting rooms for 5 minutes at the most. I would understand if we were teenagers goofing around. We had probably 5 items between the both of us, and there were multiple people trying on things that were in the fitting rooms before us. Were they chastised? No. Obviously, she went to go tell somebody that she was treated so weird, and who was she greeted by? the employee, Marianne, that called her inconsiderate (who turned out to be the manager!) You can guess how that went... I now understand why they are so understaffed. It is a reflection on the company overall that they are pushing these managers to their psychological breaking point. On the other hand it is unacceptable they are using customers as their punching bag. If this isn't corrected how is anybody going to want to work here? Shop here? ~Syndie

AWESOME store! EXTREMELY clean and we'll organized!! However, they didn't put our purchases in a bag. No bags?!? I seen a big bag with their store name on it with nothing in it but still they did not offer us a bag even when I asked them... And we had a lot of stuff! I definitely recommend shopping there but be sure to take your own bag! ~Melanie
