Bubble City. Nice guys, it might be a bit pricy but they do great work on our bedding and our dog’s stuff once a month.

If you are willing to make the trip, Ecker’s in Bethesda is top notch.

I dunno what's available in the city but the clock shop in the Savage Mill comes to mind. It's called the Hands of Time. Looks like they do repair.

I don’t think so. Indoor doesn’t count.

If you move into Bolton Hill (one of the MARC-adjacent neighborhoods), message me and I can share how parents here are navigating preK and elementary. There are good option, including the local public. 👍🏼

Check out places like Cylburn Arboretum, Natural History Museum, Oregon Ridge. They put on a lot of programs on this topic, so it's a good way to network with like minded individuals. They usually cost less than $10 to attend.

its frustrating cause these kind of unrealistic claims probably do more damage in the long run. This kind of similar to Tesla not being honest with winter range.
Also way to leave out that you have a second source of heat before you have to rely on strips. A VERY atypical heat pump installation.

you can move anywhere in baltimore and send your child to the neighborhood public school at no cost. you may or may not find the school acceptable. You can apply for a spot in a public charter school, which may have residential criteria or may not. public charters are also free. you can attempt to select a public elementary school and enroll your child out of zone. this is free but not guaranteed. you can enroll your child in a private school and pay tuition. the quality is likely to be up to your standards but it is also very expensive.

Of those options, I'd stick to Federal Hill/Otterbein if you'd prefer not to pay for private school. Federal Hill prep is one of the best elementary schools in the city. Some of the other good elementary schools are in Medfield, Canton, Mount Washington and Roland Park, but it seems like you're trying to stick around the train station corridors. There are always options like living in Mount Washington and taking the light rail to Penn Station for the train or living in Canton and driving to Halethorpe for the train if any priorities change.

That’s great. I just know my child would not do well with large class sizes and lack of outdoor space/athletic fields.

My kids have been in city schools since they were 3 and now are freshman and juniors in city high schools. We found a great k-8 school and it was excellent

I’d encourage you to look at Medfield. It’s a cute and safe residential neighborhood and the elementary is a good one.

I thought the more illegible a music poster is, the "cooler" it's supposed to be. I see them all the time and have trouble deciphering what's going on. Just look at any of the posters hung on the streets in Hampden or at Ottobar

We live in Mt Vernon and my step daughter goes to Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School. They have prek3 and 4, although the 3 may only be half-day (she was at another place for that). In Baltimore, charter schools are run by the school system, which makes them much more reliable than in other cities. It was a lottery to get into the school, but it wasn't too difficult, and it is really a great school. Other people love Roland Park elementary, and you could probably live somewhere zoned for that school and commute pretty easily.

I mean...believe what you want, but all your doing is demonstrating that you don't understand how to most efficiently utilize the technology. I track all of this pretty closely.

I live near Penn Station. I wouldn’t send my kid to public schools for K-5 but if your child is 3 they can do preK anywhere. It will cost money, of course.
