Mothercare have been a main stay of the UK retailing industry. Founded in nineteen sixty one, by Selim Zilkha, they were listed ten years later on the London stock exchange, and have remained one of the top 250 companies during the past decade.
The biggest period of upheaval in the companies history was the merge with Habitat in nineteen eighty two. This was followed four years later in a merge with Bhs. Mothercare have bought a couple of their leading competitors. Boot's 'Children World' in the mid 1990's and recently the Early Learning Centre in two thousand and seven.
Mothercare has three hundred and seven stores in total, located in
thirty eight nations. The majority, two hundred, are situated in the
UK.

Lately I've noticed that many mothercare stores have been moving out
of town, these larger stores are like Toys-r-us and do have good baby
feeding and changing facilities. I recently purchased a pushchair called
the Citilite (their own brand) and i've found it great for most occasions,
if I am going out by public transport or in cars i've had no hassle
or difficulty with it. I pretty much like all their functional products.
However their maternity clothes are really frumpy, and the price is
far beyond what is reasonable. The customer service has also been a
letdown on occasion, especially when i tried to return 2 pairs of tights.

Mothercare is 'the one stop baby shop'. Everything you will need for
your baby under one roof. I must say all the Mothercares i have shopped
in have given excellent customer service! Mama's and Papa's are put
to shame, they give just about as much customer service at Mama's and
Papa's as a corner shop, a big fat Zilch! For anyone wanting a great
experience, with specially trained advisers, give Mothercare a try and
you shall never look back!
