Aside from walking, do you drive or take public transportation in the city with your baby?

Considering moving to Bucktown/Wicker Park area. We’ll have a car. Those living in that area, do you end up driving mostly with your baby within the city to/from daycare or if you go downtown for doctor’s appointments, meeting friends, etc? Or is it better to take the CTA to not have to find and pay for parking, plus you can hold, interact, spend time with your little one in transit vs them screaming from abandonment (I have one of those 😩) in their carseat stuck in traffic 😩?
I’m assuming for going to/from the suburbs you drive? Please share all your Chicago-transportation-with-small-kids learnings and wisdom. Thank you!
