Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQs)
Q. Why don't you list the pricing of your reborn babies?
A. My Sweet Baby Reborn Nursery operates using various business models and pricing guidelines. Not every baby is the exact same nor do they all contain the same detailing options. Therefore, pricing for each unique creation would vary (which is why we offer personalized custom reborn quotes when slots are available).
A link to Facebook Messenger for contact will be provided for answers to questions, pricing, and to discuss various payment plan options .
Any baby that is posted as "available" on the website will have a price and any layaway (payment plan) options that are available.

Q. Do you still accept custom or private orders?
A. In an effort to provide the best possible customer service to our clients, custom and private orders are no longer being accepted. All reborn babies will now be available via a "ready to ship" process; layaways (payment plans) will still be welcome.
Q. How many artists work for My Sweet Baby Reborn Nursery?
A. There is only ONE artist with My Sweet Baby Reborn Nursery (Markita Booker). She also has a team of mentors and a business advisory board as a support system to assist with navigating day-to-day operations and scheduling.
Q. Are payment plans offered?
A. Yes. Layaways (payment plans) are offered with an initial 50% non-refundable deposit. Details on how to pay the remaining balance and shipping are discussed with each client individually or are posted on the babies' listings.
Q. What forms of payment do you accept?
A. We accept secure PayPal payments. Detailed invoices are sent to our clients via e-mail after all specifications are gathered from our personal consultations and a sales (and layaway, if applicable) agreement has been electronically signed.
Q. Do you issue sales contracts for your reborns and do I have to sign one?
A. The answer is yes and yes. We now have sales and layaway agreements (as applicable) that must be electronically signed before deposit invoices are issued (meaning all clients must be at least the age of majority, or 18 years old, in order to purchase a reborn). Each agreement is tailored to the individual client that we are servicing at the time. All details are listed in the agreements and the client is required to sign documents electronically. Any individual questions can be answered at the time of the transaction.
Q. How fast will I receive my reborn after I have paid in full?
A. Our reborn babies are normally shipped within 3 business days of the balance being paid in full using the fastest shipping options available to us. We also include insurance on all shipments.
Q. Can I change my baby's clothing everyday?
A. We do not advise frequent changing of the babies as this will cause the sealing and/or paint to wear thin and could cause damage to your baby. Also frequent brushing of the hair can cause the hair strands to break and/or become damaged. Care instructions are provided with each baby to inform our clients of the proper care recommended.
Q. What do you use inside of your reborn babies?
A. At My Sweet Baby Reborn Nursery, we only use top quality materials. For stuffing and weighting, we use one to two different size premium glass beads and premium Poly-fill. We also use strong earth magnets for pacifiers and hair bows (if applicable) (please let us know in advance if you'd rather not have magnets).
Q. What is the fastest way to learn about most recently available babies that are up for "adoption?"
A. The fastest way will be through Markita's Facebook page as all sales listings will be posted there first and then on this website under the "available babies" tab as time permits.
Q. Where can I see examples of your previous work?
A. This information can be located on the "gallery" tab as well as the "our collection" tab.
Q. I found a baby made by another artist. Can you make one just like it?
A. The answer is (and has ALWAYS been) NO! Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will we attempt to EVER re-create a reborn made by another artist out of respect for the craft of what we do. As an artist, Markita has her own way of reborning and her own techniques. If you are interested in the work of another artist but are unsure of the person's name, we will do our best to point you in the right direction as always.
Q. I see a reborn that you created that I love. Can you duplicate a baby that you've already made?
A. The answer would be both yes and no. Markita is able to reborn the same kit (while there are hundreds of others available) but we cannot guarantee an exact color match as all paints are mixed by hand at the start of each creation.
Q. Do you offer discounts? Do you offer cheap reborns?
A. We offer top quality reborn babies using the best materials. We also send our babies home with amazing packages catered to that specific baby. However, we are well aware that we do not fit everyone's financial budget that contacts our nursery to purchase a reborn baby. We are more than willing to refer you to another artist that may better suit your needs and financial picture.
