GreenPea Baby moves to Cary, expands lines to include youth furniture, bigger design center
The new space is three times the size of the old spot in Apex and allows for store owner Krista Cathey to expand to include youth furniture, more children's clothing and a much bigger design center.

The store opens in its new location, on the lower level of Waverly Place near the Chick-fil-A and playground, on Wednesday.
Owner Krista Cathey, a local mom, tells me that Waverly Place came to her in August to find out if she was interested in moving. The store, which opened in 2008, has focused on nursery furniture and decor; clothing for infants to toddlers; breastfeeding accessories; cloth diapers; and other items for the young children.
"That's been a big part of our business," she tells me.
The new location across from WakeMed's Cary campus also was ideal as the store serves plenty of new and expecting parents.
"Everybody's doctor is over here," Cathey said. "It's just a good spot."
GreenPea will continue its regular classes, including a CPR class, cloth diaper class and clean eating class where parents learn how to make baby food. Cathey also is talking to lactation consultants to offer a program at the store too.
The new location, with restaurants and popular evening events, also means expanded hours for the shop. They will be 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday and Saturday.
"It's very exciting," said Cathey, a mom of three. "It's been fun to see it grow and we've got an excellent staff."
GreenPea's new address is 316 Colonades Way, Cary.
Can't wait to check the new store out!
