Customer Service / Returns

When ordering

After placing your order, you’ll receive a confirmation email. If it’s not in your inbox, please check your spam or junk folder.

Please review your order carefully. If you notice an error (e.g., address, product details), email us at hello@babyboo.ie as soon as possible—before dispatch. We’ll do our best to fix it, but personalised items cannot be changed once created.

We aim to dispatch orders within 72 hours—your checkout confirmation will reflect our current availability.

Delivery estimates:

Ireland: Arrives within 7 working days of payment

Priority Shipping (Ireland): Fast-tracked for urgent orders

International Shipping: Rates vary; surcharges apply for UK deliveries due to Brexit. Customs fees may be charged on arrival—this is beyond our control.

All orders internationally are dispatched with a commercial invoice

Important:
Please double-check your delivery address and phone number. If your parcel is returned due to an address error, we may charge a second delivery fee. If delivered to the wrong address, we can request An Post retrieve and reroute it—additional charges may apply.

All orders are collected at 12.30 each day – priority orders placed before noon will usually be included (depending on customisation in the order we may need more time to complete the order)

If your item does not arrive

Incorrect Address Provided

If you entered an incorrect or incomplete delivery address during checkout:

We cannot resend the item unless the original parcel is returned to us.

All orders are shipped with a return address label, and most incorrectly addressed parcels do come back to us.

If the parcel is not returned, and the error was on your side, we regret that we’re unable to offer a replacement or refund.

You need to contact us within 3 days if the package is not received by you but delivered according to the tracking by the courier. We are unable to raise a dispute after this time. Please check your external mail box to check if the package was left there firstly or if someone else in your household or a neighbour took in the package on your behalf.

Delivery Disputes & Duplicate Shipments

We always aim to get your order to you quickly and safely. If an item is reported as lost and a replacement is issued, but both the original and replacement later show as delivered (via An Post or courier GPS tracking), we ask customers to:

Let us know which parcel they received

Return the duplicate if both arrive

If we don’t receive a reply within 7 days of our contact attempts, we may treat this as an unreturned duplicate delivery and reserve the right to take further steps — including suspending future orders or reporting the matter as suspected fraud to the relevant authorities.

We appreciate your honesty and cooperation in helping keep things fair for all customers.

If your item is returned to us

We’ll confirm your original address and phone details

If the return was due to wrong address, a second delivery charge may apply

If the issue was our fault, the item will be resent free of charge

We will always offer you the option of a partial refund for your order, excluding the delivery charges if your order is not personalised.

If you email us

If you send us a query we will endeavour to respond within 24 hours to acknowledge your email and hopefully provide a solution.

Customs

International shipments may be subject to local taxes and import duties when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You or the gift recipient are responsible for payment of any such taxes and import duties.  We have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please contact the local customs office for further information about potential charges before placing your order.

You will need to lodge your complaint within 2 weeks of receiving your order, if you note a fault with any product you need to contact us as soon as you receive your order if you are making a complaint. We cannot be held responsible for complaints or fault reports beyond that time frame.
