hi ladies - i was on the bump when my kids were babies/toddlers but haven't been in a long time. but i do remember that the local board was a great resource for me at the time for the city i was living in at the time. my kids are now 7 (boy) and 5 (girl) so maybe we're too "old" for the bump, but we are relocating to Carmel so i thought I'd turn here like i did in the past. we are relocating from out of state for work and we don't know a soul! i need lots of recs for stuff and would appreciate any info. i know there are a lot of questions here, sorry if i'm asking too much! 

some of the things i need are:

pediatrician

pediatric dentist

general practice doc and obgyn for me

adult dentist

hair salon for me (needs a great colorist especially)

a neurologist for me (i'm under care of one here for migraine)

private piano teacher or place to take piano lessons for my son

somewhere for both kids to take tennis lessons

a dance studio for my daughter

gymnastics for my daughter

best place for soccer, basketball, etc. (i found Carmel Dads club online?)

Good luck with the move! Where in Carmel?

There is a very active Carmel Moms Facebook group with almost 400 members. It's https://www.facebook.com/groups/104882349673160/

My daughter is almost 3, so I can't be as much help. We go to Carmel Pediatrics and I absolutely love them. My GP is Dr. Gerald Mick. He's probably my favorite doctor ever. My OB is with OB/GYN of Indiana. It's a pretty big practice with multiple offices. I've liked all but one of the doctors there. 

I'm still looking for a new salon. My previous two moved

The Monon Center is great. We do swim lessons there- but they have kids and adult leagues... Dance lessons, etc. We go to Indianapolis Pediatric dentistry- they're awesome with my 4 year old son. Both have nice websites to check out. Our pediatrician is Kristine Powell- she's good too- part of St Vincent's. We moved to this area three years ago- so I started from scratch as well. There are tons of good programs in the area.

My son sees Dr. Mazurek at Meridian Pediatrics. We LOVE her - not sure if she is accepting new patients or not but so far we've liked everyone there.

My OB/GYN is Dr. Sallie Hahn at IU North. I switched to her after my son was born and have been really impressed so far. Super nice.

I love my GP doc (Dr. Kons), but he's in downtown Indy so probably a little far for you.

Good luck on the salon - I've been in this area for 11 years and am still searching for one I love.

My LO is not old enough for all of the sports, lessons, etc. so not much help there. Welcome to the area and good luck on your move!
