Some Northern Westchester parents soon could have to pay more to dress their kids.
After 15 years, second hand franchise Once Upon a Child is closing in Somers.
The family who runs it wrote in an email to customers that they're no longer able to make the living required to support their family.
The store allows parents to sell their used items and buy what they need at a discount.
The Somers store says it will be open through January to sell out of its inventory, but it won't be accepting items for sale.
The nearest Once Upon a Child locations are in Connecticut and Scarsdale.
