Family Life

Family life in New York can be both a struggle and a magical experience. While life in NYC with kids can be expensive, there are amazing experiences to be had here. From the incredible parks, playgrounds and museums, to the wonderful schools and opportunities for fun.

New York has the most amazing shopping and dining options for families. We love checking out the stores in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and The Bronx. You’re sure to find the most amazing baby and kids clothes, as well as stylish outfits for mom and day.

If you’re on a budget or if you have a date night coming up, New York’s restaurants are the best in the world. We’ll keep you updated on the latest openings and family-friendly brunch options.

Family life in New York also often means small apartment living. We’ll always fill you in on the latest real estate news. We know the best neighborhoods for families and the coolest kid-friendly apartment buildings.
