Any recommendations for good Daycares (2-4 year kids) in the Philadelphia area? I have a new born but I’ve heard that majority day cares have a couple year waitlist so would like to register at a few asap. Thank you!

What part of town are you in or working?

Before moving to the burbs, I sent my children to the Goddard School (infant - 2yrs at 22nd and Pine, PreK 3 and 4 at 23rd and South) and loved it. Not sure about waitlists because we joined when they were new, but it’s a wonderful place.

I am trying to write a stock letter to send to parents everyday that their child does not come to virtual learning sessions. I have been told by administration that even though I have spoken to parents and know why students are not coming to zoom classes, that we still need to contact them everytime they dont come. For some of my students this is everyday due to parent work schedules and disability issues.
Is anyone else having this trouble? What are you saying to parents to cover yourself?

Me and my partner are not sure whether we want to have kids . Sometimes we want to and the next day we are completely against the idea . The reason we want to have kids is that we want to grow our inner circle , have more people in this world who we can call our family. And we don’t want to have kids is that it will put extra pressure on us , less freedom for next 10-15 years. Wanted to understand why people have kids or don’t have kids . Please share your thoughts :)

After being broken up now for 14 months - I think I still love my ex. We were together 6 years, and never fought. I thought I would spend the rest of my life with him. I don’t know why I can’t move on. It’s my birthday weekend and I have plans all weekend, but can’t stop thinking about this. I’ve been out with lots of great guys, but I keep holding on that maybe… one day we will be together again. Then my ex texted me today to let me know he and his new fiancé are moving to (cont. below)…

Random question. Sometimes an app or website doesn’t work due to the fact that I’m using a VPN.

Do companies have a way to block all VPN connections?

Or Is it because too many people use the same VPN ip address and access the same website? Would it be fixed using a private vpn ip address?

All that said, I'm looking for some words of wisdom on how to pivot to sales ops, Rev ops, or GTM strategy. The latter probably being my preference.
