Great product and great customer service
Ordered a wooden activity cube for a family member's 1st birthday. It got lost/stuck with the delivery company, and when I contacted My 1st Years they responded within an hour and had a replacement sent out immediately. I have now received the replacement 2 days after that email interaction.
Top notch customer service and the activity cube itself is absolutely beautiful and will be a well loved gift.

I can see that my colleague arranged a free return for you within 24 hours of your first contact with us, and we will also make sure your feedback regarding the product quality is passed to the relevant team for review.
We also sincerely apologise that you were unable to get through to us straight away. While we do advise that responses may take up to 24 hours, we completely appreciate how frustrating it can be when you need urgent assistance. I will also raise the issue with the phone line experience with our technical team to investigate further.

Customer service
There was a small mistake with my order (i had the wrong item delivered - these things happen and never had an issue with any previous purchases) but once i raised the issue - the next day, i had the correct item being delivered and was kept in the loop the entire time.
Customer service skills were exceptional - thank you Irina for all you help.

Absolutely fantastic service.
I had a very late notice, urgent order which I made an error on. I immediately contacted them out of hours. They replied very quickly, also out of hours by email and WhatsApp, advised me of what I had done wrong, fixed it for me and still ensured my fast delivery was met. The product quality was also excellent. I highly recommend them with no reservations whatsoever.

Personalised plush whale
I placed an order as a gift and realised I had spelt the name wrong for personalisation. I contacted customer service via email and received a response confirming changes had been made as requested. Thank you to Dorota for the prompt response and reassurance. Looking forward for our new addition to receive the plush whale which will be a keepsake for years to come.

Fabulous company and products
Fabulous company and products. We purchased our 1st order of two personalised dressing gowns and wooden toy and were so pleased, the quality was excellent. In addition, the customer service is second to none and it was so well presented. I wish all Companys were the same. Will definitely be reordering and would highly recommend

Products I love customer service not so much
I love the products on here, however, delivery hasn’t been what they have said and I get it isn’t guaranteed but they didn’t offer a refund on my delivery when they lost my order in their system and delivery isn’t cheap. I have done another order giving it another go and we are now nearly a week later with no delivery which is estimated 3-5 days and I doubt I will get a refund on this delivery either. I will seriously consider using them anymore which is a shame.

Hi, we’re very sorry to hear about your recent experience with delivery delays. Unfortunately, we experienced delays during this period due to a high volume of orders being received, which impacted our usual dispatch and delivery timeframes. We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, particularly when you were expecting delivery within the estimated timeframe provided.
We truly appreciate your continued support and the fact that you chose to place another order with us despite the previous issues. Your feedback regarding the delivery experience and communication is extremely important to us, and we will ensure your comments are passed on internally for review. We’re very sorry again for the disappointment caused.

Ewelina was a brilliant help!
Ewelina was a brilliant help correcting a mistake that was on an original order that a friend had bought us. She very kindly corrected the mistake and sent us the order via first class, all of which was free of charge. This was very kind and unexpected! The customer service was fantastic and the fact my order was going to be delivered either the next day or the day after that was exceptional! Would thoroughly recommend Ewelina and my 1st years for their service!

Please dont deal with this company if you value your own time
The item I received had an incorrect personalisation. I had to email and call persistently to get any resolution. Their responses were either non existent or slow except when they were denying it was their fault. They accused me of not responding to some of their emails which was utterly untrue. The whole experience left me frustrated, upset and ultimately embarassed as the present was for my godchild.

Hi, we are very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologise for the frustration and disappointment caused. Receiving an item with incorrect personalisation, especially when it was intended as a gift for your godchild, is understandably upsetting and we completely appreciate how this situation left you feeling embarrassed and let down.
We are also sorry to hear that you felt communication was slow and difficult throughout the resolution process. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and we apologise for any confusion regarding the correspondence.
We can confirm that we have now contacted you directly by email to assist further and work towards resolving this matter for you as quickly as possible.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
