Now Hiring: Retail Associate (Full-Time or Part-Time)

Posted: 11/17/2025

The Children’s Gift Shop is looking for a warm, hardworking, people-loving team member to join our small but mighty staff! This is a great opportunity to work in a beloved local shop where every day brings a little joy, creativity, and community connection.

About the Role

We are hiring both full-time and part-time retail associates. The position includes:

  • Assisting customers in finding the perfect gifts

  • Stocking shelves and keeping the shop organized

  • Gift wrapping (training provided!)

  • General retail support during our busiest seasons

Experience is helpful, but not required—we’re looking for someone who works hard, enjoys helping people, and brings a positive, can-do attitude to our friendly shop.

Schedule

We currently have two team members who each work three days a week, and we are looking for one more person to round out our staff.
Available shifts include:

  • Mondays

  • Wednesdays

  • Thursdays

  • Saturdays

Additional hours will be available through the holiday season (now through December 25).
A big plus for anyone who is willing to work some Sundays as well.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

  • Supportive, fun, community-oriented environment

  • Flexible schedule with part-time or full-time options

  • Opportunity to help families, kids, and gift-givers find exactly what they need

  • A creative atmosphere—especially during the holidays!


If you or someone you know would be a great fit, please reach out (847) 441-5970 or stop by the shop. We’d love to meet you!
