πΌPram
Halifax's waterfront boardwalk is flat, wide, and very stroller-friendly, stretching for miles past shops and historic sites. The Halifax Citadel involves some hills and grassy slopes, so a carrier helps for that stop.
π½οΈFood & Eating
Seafood shacks and casual spots along the waterfront, like Salty's, are relaxed with kids and have high chairs, and donair (a local specialty) is worth trying. Most restaurants are easygoing about young children.
π‘οΈSafety
Halifax is a safe, friendly maritime city with low crime. Weather can turn foggy or rainy with little notice, so pack layers even in summer.
π₯Hospitals
The IWK Health Centre is one of Canada's leading pediatric and maternal hospitals, giving Halifax excellent care options for young children. Pharmacies are widely available downtown.
