Best baby-goods store: Giggle
Giggle is a godsend for freaked-out new parents and those buying for them. Not only is every item in the store guaranteed to meet at least three of the shop’s ten criteria (such as “space saving” or “innovative”), but Giggle eases your shopping experience by offering detailed checklists, a complete baby registry and even a baby-gear dictionary, not to mention supplying a knowledgeable, friendly staff. Throw in a relaxed atmosphere and competitive prices, and you’ll wish founder Ali Wing would open stores to cater to us giant babies, too. 120 Wooster St between Prince and Spring Sts (212-334-5817; see giggle.com for additional locations).
Runner up
Babesta 66 West Broadway between Warren and Murray Sts (646-485-5146, babesta.com). Subway: 1, 2, 3 to Chambers St; A, C, E to Chambers St.
