There’s nothing like the fresh start of a New Year to inspire us to do more of what we love. Whether you’re going with good old-fashioned resolutions, or setting intentions moving into 2024, we’ve gathered up some of our favorite self-care stuff around the city. We know it can be difficult for parents to find alone time so we tried our best to include gyms with childcare, nail salons with baby holding, and places where you and your kids can have a mindful experience apart or together.
For the Body
