About Us

Once Upon A Child - Gambrills

Each Once Upon A Child location is individually owned and operated by moms and dads like you, who understand money doesn't grow on trees. Our customers want quality children's clothing, and were excited that we can offer locally sourced, gently used items at up to 70% off of regular retail prices.

We strive to provide a fun and convenient way to sell your gently used kids' items and an eco-friendly shopping experience. We offer payment on the spot for items we select that meet current style, safety, and condition standards. We maintain high merchandise standards by thoroughly inspecting all toys and equipment for any safety recalls.

Whether you're buying or selling, we would love to help you find what you're looking for. Stop in today at Once Upon A Child!

A Note From the Owner:

We've owned the Once Upon a Child Gambrills store for almost 20 years! In 2015 we moved into the larger location we're at now. It's been our pleasure and privilege, as well as that of our extended family our incredible, hard-working, wonderful staff to proudly serve thousands and thousands of growing families like yours.

We're a little older and a little wiser but we believe in this business and the value we provide to each of you and our communities more than we ever have. Thank you all very much!
