[Highland Park] Summer Daycare Options
by Darren 14 Feb '14

14 Feb '14

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for summer daycare options. I have three girls (4, 3, and 3) and I currently have a nanny helping before school each day. Rather than defaulting to a nanny this summer, I'm interested in finding a place with more children with whom my girls can interact. Outside play is a big plus. Any recommendations for places near the East End? Thanks!

All are in great condition. Women's Moods and 50 Ways to Paper Yourself are hardcover. $10 for all three. Please email or text 412-478-2813. Thanks! Sherri Women's Moods: What Every Woman Must Know About Hormones, the Brain, and Emotional Health. by Deborah Sichel and Jeanne W. Driscoll >From Publishers Weekly: "Have you taken care of your brain today?" The question arises frequently in this look at how women's hormones affect not only their moods but their lives. According to Sichel (a Harvard Medical School professor specializing in psychiatry and neurology) and Driscoll (a clinical nurse specialist known for her work in women's psychology and hormonal issues), the way a woman's hormones function in relation to her brain (and thus her entire body) dictates how her life will unfold. Drawing on women's personal stories as well as on clinical studies, Sichel and Driscoll explain why a woman's transit through her menstrual cycle affects her moods; why the devastating, complex effects of postpartum depression "are the biggest complication of birth today"; and how female hormonal imbalance undoubtedly causes depression. Readers are invited to utilize NURSE (nourishment, understanding, relaxation, spirituality and exercise), the secrets to keeping brain function optimal. Whether a woman is menstrual, pregnant, postnatal, periomenopausal or menopausal, this book offers a wealth of detailed information on how to maintain proper hormonal balance and thus a happy and productive life. 10-city author tour. (Dec.) Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. >From Library Journal: Sichel, a physician board certified in psychiatry and neurology, and Driscoll, a certified clinical nurse specialist, are in practice together treating women with postpartum mood disorders and other psychosocial problems brought on by pregnancy, postpartum, and lactation. Drawing on their own personal experiences, the experiences of their patients, and their own research as well as that of others, the authors discuss why the unique brain chemistry of women and the sensitivity of the brain to female hormones make women more susceptible to mood disorders and anxiety problems. They outline the program they use with their patients, which includes some medications and a great deal of self-care. Much of their text deals with menstruation or issues associated with reproductive events, while there are two chapters discussing menopause. Well researched and well written with an extensive selected bibliography, this is recommended for consumer health collections. -AMary J.

by Pam Fagelson 14 Feb '14

14 Feb '14

We made it to Valentine's Day so the end of this relentless winter will soon be in sight. If you'd like the glow from those chocolates or roses to last a bit longer -- and especially if none appeared -- you deserve to schedule yourself for a Relaxology session. This unique blend of essential oils, energy balancing (Pam can find yours if it's ebbed away this winter) and integrated reflexology will give you the boost you need to make it through till the crocuses appear. Contact Pam at 3 Rivers Reiki and Reflexology 412-501-3338 (FEET) now for that much-needed early taste of spring. www.3RiversRandR.com
