I know I'm not around a lot anymore, I never have the chance to be on my actual computer and hate forum phone typing, but thought of you guys when trying to plan our week long May NYC trip.

Most everything is booked but wondered if anyone has recommendations on what to do with kids in New York and how, relatively, easy is it to get around solo parenting with a 4.5 year old and 10 month old to these attractions when we're based in Tribeca.

What's the easiest way to get from JFK to Times Square at 10pm with aforementioned kids? Cab? Carmel? Uber?

I'll bring baby wearing things but should I bring a (single? Double?) stroller? Thanks!

Hi I would recommend Bronx zoo not too far from the city also subways sucknwith any stroller so I would recommend cab

Uber is the way to go here. The stroller sucks on PT, so smaller is better.

Bronx Zoo
NYC or Brooklyn Botanical Gardens
Central Park
Natural History Museum
Statue of Liberty
Ride the cable cars to Roosevelt Island

how do carseats work with uber?

You can order an Uber with a car seat, actually!

I know a lot of NYCers are ok with no car seats in cabs, but I'm not. So I always get the Uber with one, and it's slightly more expensive, but NBD.

spunbutterfly, Uber + car seat is great for taxis with kids in NYC. They'll only have one seat, though. If you need more than one car seat, I'd recommend Legends car service. You book in advance and specify what type of seat you want and how you want it installed (forward- or rear-facing). They'll pick you up inside baggage claim for an extra fee.
