It all started with a kiss.
Next thing you knew, you were ten months in and two centimeters dilated.
Consider planting your next one on Smoochie Baby, a new boutique in the heart of baby-booming Williamsburg.
The cheerful shop is stocked with the best in modern kids’ fashion, accessories, and furniture. Find funky cashmere separates by Trash-a-Porter, alongside gear du jour like the Orbit Baby, next to a red miniguitar by Schoenhut (complete with a downsized amp). There are even movies to keep kids occupied while parents shop.
Really sealing the deal — with a kiss, of course.
Smoochie Baby, 110 Berry Street, between North 7th and 8th Streets, Williamsburg (718-384-3340 or smoochiebabynyc.com).
