Parklife since When?
24th June 2003 and still here!
Why is Parklife in Whitby?
When visiting the town on our many holidays to Whitby we noticed that there was no baby clothes shop in Whitby and having asked around there had been one that stood out, 'Winifreds of Whitby' that was fondly remembered by so many, so with that in mind we set out about moving north and creating a name that would again be seen as 'the baby shop in whitby' with the added touch of luxury and designer names.
And then came the website?
We have now built this all new eCommerce website to enable many more people to shop with us and to keep our established customers up to date with our latest collections. We manually check/update the website everyday and this helps us to ensure the items displayed are actually available and the content is kept fresh.
