[Highland Park] looking for a morning baby-sitter
by Yael Schenker 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Our morning babysitter is moving on to bigger and better things (her PhD thesis), and we are looking for someone to replace her. We have two kids (ages 3 and 5) and we live in Highland Park. The job involves helping them to get ready for school (getting dressed, breakfast, brushing teeth, etc) and then driving them there (our son is at Dilworth in Highland Park and our daughter is at the JCC in Squirrel Hill). We would also like someone who can help with light chores around the house (making lunches, loading the dishwasher, doing laundry), especially when we are all home or on days when we can take the kids ourselves. You must have your own car. We can pay $15 per hour. We would prefer someone who can work Monday through Friday from 7am-9pm, but we are somewhat flexible as far as hours. Please let us know if you are interested, or if you know someone who might be. This job has worked out well for a student. Yael Schenker

[Highland Park] Looking for an East End apartment
by amy johnston 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hello! I have a friend who is searching for a small one bedroom apartment in the East End area in the city in the $550-$600/ month range. In addition, his small child may join him for part of the time. I think that he is fairly flexible about the type of space such as, part of a house, apartment building, etc. I have seen similar posts on this list serve for this type of rental in the past. Please contact me if you know if anything meeting this criteria becomes available. Thank you. Sincerely, Amy Johnston
