First, congratulations. You’re one of the lucky ones toget your hands on The Hudson Reporter’s very first,
bi-annual edition of Hudson Reporter Family.Second, allow us to explain what you can expect to find here. We know how it goes when you find yourself in need of a
pediatrician in a pinch and stare open-mouthed at a computerscreen full of thousands of internet listings that mean absolute-ly nothing when there’s a medical need to fill. We’ve been there when our kids or our kids’ kids or our
friends’ kids suddenly develop a dire need to hone their ninjaskills that must be met with karate instruction, or when they’vejust seen an episode of ‘Bun Heads’ at their B-F-F’s house andwill not rest until they, too, are enrolled in a ballet class, orfive.Perhaps your tween or teen has skyrocketed your blood pres-
sure into the ether with a new love interest and you’d like tosuggest a more cultural (and very public) option for “hangingout” at one of the local museums or parks. During the day, ofcourse.While we humans of the adult sort have developed the sort
of patience required to wait, say, a day or two before fulfillinga need – be it practical or frivolous – our under-18 counter-parts, by way of nature, have not necessarily caught up.So what do you do when you live in Hudson County and
you’re a new parent and think you have no idea how to be anew parent and could really use a seasoned parent to talk to?Or when your child is rapidly approaching the age whenschool will give you a moment of respite, but you love themso much you have to be absolutely sure you’ve made the bestchoice from all the options out there? And by the way, what are all the options out there?
Hudson Reporter Family is here to help
We’ve done the legwork for you, because we know how raretime for legwork can become once “you” turns into “family.” We’ve taken the time to cull through the ample wealth of
fun, useful, practical, not-so-practical, and all around handyservices in Hoboken and Jersey City available to those whofind themselves in need of places to go and things to do withthat significantly more energetic part of the population thatwill, sooner than later, make up the next generation.
Friendly user’s guide
We’ve broken it down by category in a way that seemsmost logical when logic may seem to have flown the coop.There are two main categories: “Activities,” and “Services,”which include the listings of both for- and non-profit organ-izations. “Activities” will provide you with the things you and the
young-uns might want to do, from recreational sports andphysical activity to places to play and be entertained; in otherwords, where to go to have fun.What about parks? You pass them every day, you know
they’re there, but what exactly do they offer? We will tellyou.“Services” allows you to find the things you need to do. We
offer a comprehensive list of schools – including public,charter, and private – and the things that complement yourchild, tween, or teen’s education like tutoring, or specialneeds supplements, for instance.Day care is an especially touchy subject for most parents.
In our guide, we give you a comprehensive list of places tocheck out and determine what best suits your family’s specif-ic needs.
Hudson Reporter Family has also compiled a list of pedi-atric and family focused medical services from primary careto dental to mental health. Does your child hate the dentist?Perhaps a waiting room full of conveniently distracting toysand televisions will ease the fear.
A good place to start
No one, tragically, has come up with the magical handbookfor seeing a kid safely and happily and successfully throughto the big bad world of adulthood, but we can at least pointyou to a few places that are sure to help you on your journey.We hope you keep us around for a few months and that we
serve as the guide we strive to be during times of need,whether it be for fundamentals, or for just plain fun.This is in fact our trial run, so please feel free to email us
with suggestions at [email protected] for our sec-ond annual edition of Hudson Reporter Family. We are here,after all, to help you as best we can.
