[Highland Park] Cleaning?
by Michelle Wahila 14 Feb '08

14 Feb '08

Hello Neighbors, Does anyone have information on either a cleaning service or person who cleans for businesses/clients? I'm not sure exactly what we are in the market for - but it could be anything from 2-5 days per week. Any suggestions you could offer would be great. Many thanks, Michelle Wahila

[Highland Park] Valentine's Day Babysitting
by Susan Wadsworth-Booth 14 Feb '08

14 Feb '08

Neighbors: Our daughters' school, Liberty Elementary (in Shadyside) is sponsoring a Valentine's Babysitting Service (on February 15th, the Friday evening following Valentine's Day) from 6–9 p.m. All proceeds will be used to help fund the 5th graders' trip in May to Washington, D.C., which they are really looking forward to! Children aged 2 and up are welcome. They will be cared for (and entertained) by Liberty 5th graders, supervised by parents and staff. (Both my older daughter, a 5th grader, and I will be participating as caregivers.) The cost is reasonable, too, if you've priced babysitting lately! I've attached the flyer. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or the other mom listed on the flyer. Thanks, Susan Wadsworth-Booth ------------------------------------- Susan Wadsworth-Booth Director Duquesne University Press 600 Forbes Avenue 405A Rockwell Hall Pittsburgh, PA 15282 412-396-6610 FAX 412-396-5984 wadsworth(a)duq.edu -------------------------------------

[Highland Park] Med student in search of short-term housing
by Jennifer Brackney 10 Feb '08

10 Feb '08

Hello Highland Park Neighbors, We are sending this out on behalf of a 4th year medical student with whom my husband became acquainted with while the student was spending a month at UPMC Presby a few months ago. Scott emailed asking if we knew anyone with a room/apt to rent for a month as his housing fell through at Pitt for an upcoming elective. Unfortunately, we are unable to help as we are presently renting a small 2-bedroom apartment ourselves. If anyone can help or point him in a good direction, please respond to Scott. I attached his email and information below. Thank you! Jen & Chris Brackney Christopher Brackney,DO Fellow, Critical Care Medicine University of Pittsburgh Medical Center 615 Scaife Hall, 3550 Terrace Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15261 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Forwarded message:] I just had my Pitt housing fall through. I'm respectfully wondering if you have any colleagues who may rent out space for traveling/locums folks, whom I may contact? At 37 y/o I'm quiet, mature, and discreet and mostly am diligently studying or outside exercising on trails. Of course, I'm completely willing to pay a premium for rent. Non smoker, no interest in TV, no loud stereo. I have contacts out with the medical school and the ED departments, and just wanted to ask if you might have any ideas. My scheduled time at UPMC is 02/25-03/23/08. Sincerely sorry for the short notice. Scott McQuilkin 207-408-1633 smcquilkin(a)gmail.com
