Once Upon A Child - Tyler

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. As a mom of 3 girls, I wanted to be a part of a business that allowed parents to purchase children's items at an affordable price as well as buy back those items no longer needed. I have owned the Plato's Closet Tyler location (sister store to Once Upon a Child) since 2011. Since we opened, we have heard the community of Tyler ask time and time again if we have a sister store that buys and sells children's items. We heard the need and decided it was time to offer both options. We have located both stores side-by-side for convenience, in the Village at Cumberland Park.  

Our customers want quality children's clothing and we're excited that we can offer discounts up to 70% off of original retail prices. We strive to offer a fun and convenient way to sell your gently used items. Whether you're buying or selling, we would love to help you find what you're looking for. 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!
