Resources for Houston Parents

Are you are a Houston parent looking for the best place to live or for parent recommended schools, camps, doctors and party venues? Look below for resources for Houston parents!

Moving to Houston:

Houston is huge. Look on a map and you will know just what I mean. If you start on one end and drive to the other, it will take over an hour… without traffic. So, the question I get a lot from people moving to the city, with kids, is… where do you even start? Where do you live, where do you go to school, where do you meet people…?

Schools and Preschools:

Where should I send the kids to school?? This is a question I asked over and over a few years ago. Fortunately JillBJarvis.com has thousands of Houston moms and dads that have been through the search. Here are their recommendations… plus tips on attending HoustonISD Magnet schools.

Camps:

It’s clear from all the questions I get… Houston parents not only want to know what camps are available, but they want recommendations from other parents. Here is an updated list of camps recommended by Houston parents.

Party Venues:

One of our most popular pages is this list of parent recommended party venues!

Parent Recommended Pediatricians, Dentists, OBGYNs & Midwives:

Who do you ask to find the very best doctors in Houston? Probably someone who has used them before! Here are the Houston parent recommended Pediatricians, ERs, Dermatologists, Dentists, OBGYNs & Midwives!

jill-jarvis-bigkidsmallcity-circle-300 Welcome!  JillBJarvis.com is the go-to blog for things to do in Houston with kids!  It is upbeat and dedicated to making our big city feel small.   START HERE!    

On this website you will find a full list of Houston weekly events, things to do around the city, travel ideas and resources for parents.

I know just what it’s like to be overwhelmed by work, life and family. I spent a lot of years traveling for work, missing big milestones for my kids and feeling bad about everything.

I started this website to make a list of all the events happening around Houston and then pick one to enjoy with my kids. And instead of thinking of all the things I was missing, I started to enjoy the things we were doing together.

If you are a parent that is feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could be doing in Houston… please just use our weekly lists and daily posts as suggestions. Pick one thing to do with your family and intentionally ignore the rest!
