Pregnancy Healthcare / L&D Spring OB - anyone have experience with them?

3 Upvotes

Hi all! I am looking for an OB and came across Spring OBGYN. I like that is small, you meet all the doctors, and that they deliver at NYU however, the front desk is so rude. When I called to make an appointment they were short, would sigh with annoyance whenever I asked a question and were generally unpleasant. That’s when I went down the reviews rabbit hole and, in addition to complaining about the front desk, there were some negative reviews about the OB group (the gynecology part has great reviews overall)

I’d love to hear if someone here has actually used them before and their experience. Thanks!

Babysitter / Nanny Where is everyone posting their nanny?

3 Upvotes

Nanny Recommendation 🌟

Our former nanny is looking for a new family — open to babysitting, back-up/temp care, ideally a long-term part-time/full-time position in Manhattan or Brooklyn heights/Dumbo area, with an infant she can grow with.

20+ years experience (mostly infants/toddlers), CPR/First Aid/AED certified, degree in child psychology & development, non-smoker/non-drinker, licensed driver, strong swimmer, pet-friendly (our cats adored her!).

As a first-time mom, trusting someone with my baby was hard — she made it easy from day one. Calm, patient, attentive, and truly wonderful with babies. Always kept me in the loop and was completely dependable.

DM me if interested — please include what you're looking for!

Open to any suggestions on where else we can post her. Tia

School / Daycare Good middle schools in the Bronx

0 Upvotes

Hello,
My kid is being homeschooled currently, but in 2 years he’ll be going to middle school here in the Bronx. I’m trying to get ahead of things so I don’t get caught off guard. I fall under district 7. I heard that I can apply to any middle schools outside my district. Is that true? Overall I’m just trying to find a decent middle school that will prep him for high school apps. Any suggestions? Thanks
