Helpful Resources & Websites for Seattle

**UPDATE**

Seattle Nanny: If you're looking for a reliable nanny in the Seattle area, this is the perfect website. Equipped w/ tips and tools to find a nanny, local activities for nannies and children to do together, and helpful sites to find the nanny that's the right fit for your family!


All Seattle-centric or Seattle based:

Go Time - A go to source for happy hour, any hour of any day! Whoever thought of this is a genius! I've downloaded the iphone app & I love to check out what happy hours are going on near me.

One Bus Away
- Locate your next bus. I use the iphone friendly site for this service. In times when I'm stuck at a stop w/ no clue as to if the bus as come or gone, I pop open this handy little site & get the lowdown on when I can expect my next ride.

Boutique Culture - With a soon to launch website, Boutique Culture will be the one-stop spot for all things boutique shopping.

NW Source - I regularly come here to figure out what shopping events are happening through the week/wknd.

Seattle Yelp - Any time I'm looking to check out a new resto & don't have any leads, I turn to the opinions of Yelpers for help in the destination search of my next meal!

MyBallard - All things Ballard, all the time! This site keeps me up to date on all of the goings on of Ballard.

Citysearch Seattle - I have long been a fan and in recent years they've included such great features as peer reviews and my personal fave, features from the editor. These features include everything from up & coming culinary masters in Seattle to the perfect ladies night out. No matter the topic, I've found it inspiration for my Seattle outing.

I will be sure to add to this list as I come across helpful resources. Do you use any resources? What are your faves? Feel free to post any/all!

I'll get the full list posted in the sidebar for easy access!



Update: These were just tweeted at me & I thought I'd add them to the list!


@esandis @agentnoir ...I think Eats & Interests is a good Seattle resource website... Also @freshpickedSEA is *awesome*
