My Story

Hello, I am the new owner of Jackanory! My name is Josie and I have always had a passion for children's clothing and helping to look after the environment, so I jumped at the chance to take over Jackanory when I saw that the lovely Bridgette was retiring.

Jackanory has been trading for 38 years and started with Jacky at the helm . It initially traded from a space in Wardrew Road and then moved to a warehouse in Okehampton road. From there it moved to the building opposite where its situated today which is currently Style Works and eventually found its resting place at 57 Buller Road. 

We understand the importance of being able to shop for everything you need for your baby or child in one place so try to stock as many different products as we can. Being part of the cycle of sustainability is also important by providing high quality items that will last for many years to come. This website only has a very small amount of the items we have in store so if you're local come and have a rummage or if not feel free to fill out the contact form with any questions.

Join our community of happy parents and discover why Jackanory is the go-to destination for all your children's needs.
