Carless & Need to Transport LO

What are your experiences on transporting LO to e.g. parents/in laws place before going to work or for leisure/enrichment activities? Is public transport smooth or using ride apps a better experience? Curious on thoughts about financial sustainability/value for cost too. Thanks!

I've been doing this since my boy was a newborn and honestly, the answer really depends on your situation. Public transport works fine if you're going straight to one place and not in a huge rush, but the hassle of lugging the stroller through crowded trains and buses during peak hours got old fast for me. Ride apps like Grab are more convenient and not as stressful with a little one, especially if you have bags or the LO is cranky, though the cost adds up quickly if you're doing daily trips. My compromise has been using the bus for longer, planned journeys when I can time it off-peak, and grabbing a ride when I'm running late or it's rainy or the kiddo is being difficult. If you're commuting daily to work and then to childcare or grandparents, the weekly spend on ride-shares can definitely get heavy, so it might be worth thinking about whether a car or regular carpooling with another parent makes more financial sense in the long run.
