Pretty good auto service
These guys have always given pretty good service, though nothing spectacular. Their body shop isn't well coordinated with the service dept, however.

Good service at reasonable prices
We take both of our deisel VWs to this shop, and they do good, reasonably priced work. It's rare to find a shop that's trained on deisels, but they've been able to do everything we've needed....

Really nice teachers, high quality though costly classes
I like Gymboree, and my son did too. It's a terrific place for a new mom to meet other moms and for little kids to make their first friends. The teachers are well-chosen and enthusiastic about their...
I like Gymboree, and my son did too. It's a terrific place for a new mom to meet other moms and for little kids to make their first friends. The teachers are well-chosen and enthusiastic about their classes. The classes are programmed along the lines of the national franchise, so everything has a "scripted" feeling to it, but the teachers bring fresh life and vigor to the classes.
The cost seems high for what they offer, but the quality seems worth it.

Ever since the "Thomas Store" left Regency Mall, parents of Thomas-addicted children have been left high-and-dry for Thomas parapernalia. Fortunately, this store has an abundant selection of train gear! There are also hard-to-find toys that you won't get at the chains. There is a lot of selection packed into this little shop!

Hometown bike shop - the best!

A must-have treatment guide for parents of kids with neurological diosrders
Dr. Jaqcuelyn McCandless has published a roadmap to biomedical treatment for children with autism, ADD/HD, learning disabilities, speech delays and other neurological disorders.

Dr. Jaqcuelyn McCandless has published a roadmap to biomedical treatment for children with autism, ADD/HD, learning disabilities, speech delays and other neurological disorders.
The science behind biomedical treatment is sound and solid, based on the work of hundreds of scientists and thousands of doctors who are doing this work daily in their clinics. Kids are recovering, losing their diagnoses, and mainstreaming in school with these scientific, biologically-based treatments for their biochemical imbalances.
If your child has any of these conditions, do your child a favor and read this book from cover to cover. Never again will you be willing to accept the standard pediatrician's answer of "there's nothing we can do" or "Ritalin" for your child's difficulties.

Nice atmospheric music

... but not up to his usual standards. This is an easy-to-listen-to CD, smooth but a tad vapid. Moby undercuts his earlier, more substantial and challenging work with what seems like a series of knock-off songs.
Still, it's easy to listen to, catchy and fun, and great car music. I'd buy it again.

Richmond is an awesome city for historic renovators. And Caravati's is a best-kept secret place to find all the treasures you might need to outfit a perfect old Richmond home. It's also a great resource for architectural details to artfully incorporate into the interior decor of a new home too. There's nowhere else like it that I can imagine! Everything from cornices to clawfoot tubs and more you can't imagine.

Best private school for developmental delays and SID
We've had wonderful experience with this school for my son. The director is a well-trained OT and is nearly board-certified in ABA. It's the best school in town for ASD conditions! Expensive, yes...
We've had wonderful experience with this school for my son. The director is a well-trained OT and is nearly board-certified in ABA. It's the best school in town for ASD conditions! Expensive, yes ($60,000) that's to be expected with this diagnosis, but you sure can't trust the local school districts to appropriately treat this condition.

The best preschool in the city
The JCC is by far the best preschool (and childcare) in Richmond. Whether you are Jewish or not, the level of education and enrichment far surpasses any other childcare center in the area.
Oh,...

Oh, and they have a fantastic gym facility and an Olympic size indoor pool ... and too many other community services to mention!
