You are also going to see a lot more backmarket ods soon as people who really need it have to go get street drugs... when that starts happening... they might increase

The only thing I can add is it appears Tweed has the ability to restart that downtown parking shuttle for busy periods and it’s worth checking their ParkHVN site the day before this high-travel weekend in case they do. Separately, the Park New Haven website (different) lists the city’s garages and I was surprised the bigger ones are expensive ($18 daily) you’d still need to Lyft over; don’t use Uber.

I heard some chatter in a parent group that you can try and register for the local Magnet school tomorrow (Feb 15th) which takes kids as young as 3. It's part of the public school system, so I think it is free/low cost?

Not sure how to answer that. My kid went there for a few months as an 11 year old. Wasn’t that into it. It the coaches seemed good. Value? I can’t answer. It was clean but I haven’t spent too much time in fencing facilities.

You should definitely try for the public school lottery, which is coming up soon for next year. They used to provide both before and after care, that got cut, but I think some schools have added it back in. They are free and our children had a very positive experience. If you live in a neighborhood with a school with Pre-K, you have neighborhood preference and your child is likely to get in. Even if you don't live in a neighborhood with a school with Pre-K, it's still worth trying.

I worked for Montessori on Edgewood last year. DO NOT put your kids here. I only met one teacher (I was her co teacher) who was nice. But everyone else seemed like they didn’t wanna be there. If one of the kids had an accident they would get so annoyed, one of the teachers loved to yell at the kids, she was so scary the kids mostly just sat there quietly. I ended up leaving and ever since that I refuse to put my child in a daycare setting. One time the main teacher was sick, they left me in a classroom with at least 10 kids all by myself, the ratio was way off. I’d keep looking for a better daycare center.

I’ve been having wonderful experiences with McKenzie at the old Saybrook Ulta of all places. I have curls and have been to so many salons that specialize in curls with no luck. She’s fabulous!

Please provide a reference or remove this post (or I will remove it). What I have read says it is mostly due to increased diagnosis during the pandemic.

I’d look at care4kids for daycares. That’s really the only you’re going to fix the shorter hours issue
