About the Position:
Little is hiring! We are looking for the perfect addition to our busy team in our Portland, Maine location. This is a full-time retail position (36-40 hours per week) with room to grow. Nestled in Portland’s Old Port, Little offers high-quality, beautifully made children’s ware that inspires joy. Our storefront is bustling, and we need retail associates with the energy and motivation to thrive in our boutique!

The full-time retail sales associate would be part of an outgoing, self-motivated, team-orientated (and coffee-loving) group.

A love of children’s clothing and customer service are key--we are proud of the brands we carry, and we are passionate about honoring the magic of childhood.

Little was founded in 2015 by Angela and John Foddrill, owners of women’s clothing boutique Bliss since 2002. Honoring the magic of childhood, Little offers high-quality, beautifully made children’s ware that inspires joy. When it comes to style—there is no fresher perspective than that of a child. To encourage individuality, Little offers premium children’s brands and clothing, toys, and furniture that are playful, timeless, and unique. Whether your young one gravitates towards soft stripes, field tents for indoor camp outs, or gold-flecked tutus, Little provides a curated, one-of-a-kind shopping experience for the whole family. At Little, we believe that all children, regardless of race or gender or ability, deserve to experience the magic and wonder of childhood. We also believe that one of the greatest gifts we can give our children is an environmentally sound future. That’s why we hand-select ethical slow-fashion brands known for their premium quality, timelessness, and ability to be passed on.
