Nest & Sprout Consignment | Preloved Baby & Kids' Items Made Easy
Welcome to the Nest & Sprout Family!
Congratulations on your exciting journey into parenthood! At Nest & Sprout, we understand that your little one is growing fast, and keeping up with their changing needs can be both thrilling and challenging. That’s why we’ve created a seamless consignment process to help you navigate the world of preloved baby and kids' items.
Step-by-Step Guide to Consigning with Us:
Step 1: Explore Our Guidelines
Before diving into the consignment process, familiarize yourself with our safety and quality standards. We prioritize items that:
-
Meet safety regulations
-
Are in good condition
-
Align with our brand and design criteria
We reserve the right to decline any items that do not meet our standards. For more details, review our Consignment Contract and Policy.
New Policy Updates:
-
We now accept both value and premium boutique brands. Value brands will only be available for in-store shopping and will not be listed online.
-
We accept play-condition items for boutique brands. These may not earn credit but will be given a new life through our Play Condition section.

Step 2: Prepare Your Items
Gather the baby and kids' items you'd like to consign.
-
Ensure they are freshly cleaned and meet our condition criteria.
-
Ask yourself: “Would I buy this preloved?”
-
Button buttons, zip zippers, and fold items neatly before bringing them into the shop.
Current Limits: We accept up to 20 to 40 items per family per month, or one box/bag of items. Specialty and seasonal requests are excluded from this limit.
Play Condition Boutique Brands: We love giving vibrant, well-loved items a second life. These items may have minor flaws like paint or pen marks but are still usable. We offer a reduced payout for such items and list them in our Play Condition section.
Step 3: Register for Consignment & Sign the Contract
Ready to consign? Fantastic!
-
Register for consignment through our portal.
-
First-timers must review and sign our Consignment Contract. You can do this online or in-store upon arrival.
-
Register your name and email in the portal to track your items and sales.
Step 4: Drop Off Your Items
Stop by the store to drop off your items in a clearly labeled bag or box.
-
We’ll confirm a few details with you before reviewing the items.
-
Please allow up to 7 days for us to process your drop-off, depending on availability.
Additional Services:
-
Pickup services may be available upon request and subject to availability.
-
Alternative drop-off locations can also be arranged.
End of Term Options: Items will be bought out after 12 weeks at 20-30% of their original value, or you can opt to renew and continue earning commission as the items sell. Not all items sell within 12 weeks because we’re looking for the right person. Refused items must be picked up within 7 days; otherwise, they become the property of Nest & Sprout and may be donated or resold.
Step 5: Cash or Bonus Store Credit? You Decide!
Choose between receiving cash or store credit with a bonus:
-
Cash: 40% of the sale price (subject to e-transfer availability and possible service fees).
-
Store Credit: 40% of the sale price, with a 10% bonus.
Once you accumulate $50 in sales, you can request a payout. Cash payments are made via e-transfer. At this time we do not charge a service fee.
Step 6: Do It Again!
Every month, you can bring us up to 20 items (or whatever fits in a diaper box). We are flexible on the number of items you bring us, but we want it to be reasonable for processing and not overwhelming.
