HP Toddler car seat and stroller needed
by Marcie McGuire 01 Aug '14

01 Aug '14

Hi neighbors: My niece is in the process of starting her life over with her son and is in need of a forward facing car seat for her 28 pound toddler and a jogging stroller so they can go to the park. She has very little money but if anyone has either of these items (in good condition) that they would be willing to sell for a reasonable amount please contact me via this email. My niece and one very cute little two year old would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Marcie

Yesterday afternoon someone dumped a canvas gym bag in my front yard. The clothing in the bag had been taken out and was strewn around the ground as though someone was searching the pockets for money. If this is your bag, please contact me.

by Martha Riecks 01 Aug '14

01 Aug '14

Hi neighbors, We have a great crew of trained volunteers who are taking care of watering the new trees planted around the Highland Park Farmhouse a few times each week. There are a handful of days in August when we could use an extra volunteer or two, on hand, to help move hoses around and from tree to tree during the watering process. All you'll need to do is show up at the Farmhouse and the trained volunteers will show you how to help. The entire process takes about an hour and a half. If you can volunteer to assist us on any one of the following days, email me to sign up! - Saturday, Aug. 2, 9 am (will be cancelled if it rains tonight/tomorrow morning) - Saturday, Aug. 9, 9 am - Saturday, Aug. 23, 9 am - Wednesday, August 27, 7 pm - Saturday, Aug. 30, 9 am Best, Martha -- Martha Riecks mriecks(a)gmail.com

Seeking after school child care
by Allyson Delnore 31 Jul '14

31 Jul '14

Our family is looking for a great part-time nanny for 2 children living in Highland Park. We need to find help for all work week, M-F, but willing to find two different people for 2-3 days per week per person. So if you are energetic, love to play games, and good with precocious boys, please consider applying for any combination of days you might be available. This would be an ideal job for a college student with two or three afternoons (2:45-5:45) per week free. Some light tidying up would be part of our caregiver's responsibilities. You'll be responsible for pickups and drop-offs for one of the boys. Responsibilities could include light meal prep, if you are comfortable doing so. You should be willing to help with homework and be encouraging of outdoor, non-screen-related activities. If you like building with Legos, you'll be a hit. Fort building also encouraged. There may be days that the boys have to get to lessons or soccer practices, so we would prefer someone who is willing to drive boys around (in own car or in ours). Ability to cover the odd no-school day also a plus. Knowledge of French a bonus. Pay negotiable - $10-15/hour (based on experience, special skills, and level of involvement in household activities).

Hi Folks, I have a sweet male Thai student (22yrs old) who is temporarily living at my home who needs housing beginning mid-August for a year or so - he's a grad student at CMU. He's quiet, tidy, and gracious. He prefers something furnished, but can make do with whatever - so long as it is small (efficiency, studio or 1 bedroom) and East end for bus connections. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Diana Bloss
