Hi everyone! I'm the mom of a 15 month old who started daycare three months ago. We're from Ontario, Canada and our son is in a licensed non-profit daycare centre. When we started three months ago, we were really happy with the room our son was in and his teachers. But since mid-January, there have been a few things that have really started to bother us.

There's been total teacher turnover in my son's room (which is an infant room, 12-18 months essentially). The two teachers we loved at first are gone - one moved into the toddler room, and one went on medical leave. Since then he's had a rotating cast of teachers - a couple of whom have been relatively consistent, and there's often a new o

I recall pre-pandemic that we used to get an announcement about Mirvish's next season usually in February. Obviously the pandemic threw a lot of things off, theatre especially. Has anyone heard any rumblings about when Mirvish might be announcing their 2023/2024 season? (Or what any of those shows might be, aside from Jagged Little Pill?)

Hi r/lawncare! I'm hoping you can help me identify a tool that my mom has asked for as a gift for her birthday. This is the tool.

She borrowed it from my aunt to work on her lawn this summer, and loved it. She says that it's similar to a manual roto-tiller type tool. It has a long handle so she could use it while standing up. I asked and my aunt also doesn't know what it's called! I'm hoping to pick one up for her birthday next weekend. If anyone is able to identify it, that would be amazing! (I can always walk into Home Depot with the photo, but I'd love to have the name so I don't send any poor employee on a wild goose chase for something I can't identify!

Hey everyone! I grew up near Oshawa but moved away for a good while, and now that I've moved back, I'm definitely in need of a new hairdresser. Does anyone have any recommendations for a women's hairdresser that they like?

Anywhere in Oshawa is fine - I'm willing to drive over to Whitby or Courtice too if the hairdresser is awesome. Someone in a salon or who works out of their home is fine with me - extra plus if they work weekends or evenings. But mainly I'd just like a hairdresser who's good with women's cuts and colours! Budget is up to $150 before tip for a cut, colour & blow dry. (Unless that's too low these days.)

Thank you Reddit! :)

My fiancé's bachelor party is coming up, and he wants to keep it pretty low key - just go have a good dinner with his closest friends and then maybe get some drinks at a bar. There will be maybe eight people, including himself. He's got his heart set on getting a great steak for this dinner - ideally, he'd love to go to a nice steakhouse or something with his friends.

The problem is, three of his friends are vegetarians.

It's really bumming him out, the thought of not getting to have his steakhouse bachelor party dinner even though I know he loves his friends and wants them to be able to eat too. So I'm trying to help him out - is there a restaurant in Toronto that serves a great steak,

Ah!! So exciting!! It feels absolutely wild that our one-year mark is here. I'm thrilled!

How is everyone's planning going?? What do you have done at this stage, and what do you still have left to do? What's priority for you at the moment? And what are you most excited about?!

I just went dress shopping this past weekend with my mom and my sister, which was seriously a crazy experience in the best way. It turns out that the advice to try a bunch of different styles is totally spot on, because I found that I liked/disliked certain things on me that I never expected to! I found my dress - the MD311 from Eddy K - and I am so excited about it. :D And right now we have our Save the Dates at th

Hi all! I'm having a bit of trouble getting BroadwayBox's Oklahoma discount to work, and have never used BroadwayBox before so I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Maybe someone here who's used this kind of discount before can help?? (This is kinda long - apologies!)

My sister and I will be in NYC in early December this year (Dec 5-8), and we're trying to see some shows. Oklahoma is on our list, and I saw the other day that there's a BroadwayBox discount for the show, from performances now through January 19, 2020. It doesn't list any blackout dates. It says the tickets, with the discount, are $49.50 - $129.50. So I click the Buy Tickets on BroadwayBox, which takes me to Telecharge,

Just got an email - azazie.ca! It says that they’ve got better shipping rates and no duty costs now! So exciting!!

And this puts me in a dilemma!

We’d decided for my wedding that we would do David’s Bridal for my girls, because we want to do one colour, multiple styles for our bridal party and David’s can make that pretty easy - plus, I like that they have actual stores where you can go try stuff on. But the colour we chose (Apple) is a little brighter red than I would have liked, and their dresses aren’t super inexpensive. But that was the decision we’d made, and are set to go dress shopping with my girls in January or February!

But now! With the launch of Azazie Canada, I’m conflict

Hi Reddit! Please help!

I posted a comment on another post, but wanted to get some advice. The gist of it... I think my condo may have bed bugs.

I had two red, itchy welts appear on my right arm on Friday, May 17. Didn’t think anything of them, and they’re basically gone now. Two weeks later, on Friday, May 31, I had one red, itchy welt appear on the back of my right hand. I didn’t think it was a bed bug because of the typical “rule of 3” I’d read about online. Then yesterday, June 5, I had one red, itchy welt appear on my lower back and three red, itchy welts appear around my knuckles on various fingers of my right hand.

My SO has reported no itchy welts, but he’s got way more body hai

Hey Barrie!!

My fiancé and I are in the process of trying to hire a DJ for our wedding. We’ve gotten quotes from and have meetings scheduled with two Barrie companies - Keep Them Dancing and In The Cue. Both have good reviews online and are in our price range, which is awesome! And they’ve both been great & responsive over email. Meeting them both will definitely help us with our decision, too.

But I’ve never seen either company in action! So here I am. Has anyone been to a wedding or other event that Keep Them Dancing or In The Cue played at? Reviews online are awesome, but I would love to hear from anyone who’s seen either company play an event and hear your thoughts.

If no one has

The production is in Toronto for another month, with Sting in the production itself. Has anybody seen it elsewhere? (Or, hell, in Toronto!) I’d love to hear your thoughts! Trying to decide if it’s going to be my cup of tea or not - the summary doesn’t really spark my interest, but there are plenty of shows that I’ve found much better than their summaries let on. I tend to like a pretty wide cross section of musicals - I see a good amount of shows, and the only two I’ve seen that I really found disappointing were Once and Billy Elliot. So trying to decide if The Last Ship will be worth the ticket price! Any thoughts on the show would be great!
