Nanny Job
by Emily Nicholson 13 Dec '15

13 Dec '15

I'm posting the following ad for an acquaintance who I met at baby/toddler events at the East Liberty Carnegie Library and Shaler North Hills Library. She is currently a full-time nanny for a 2-year-old girl, but the family is moving at the end of January, so she is looking for another job. I don't know Renee well, but she has given me some great advice for dealing with my 18-month-old and she definitely knows what she's doing! My name is Renee, and I am a nanny with 24 years of experience seeking a full-time position either in your home or mine. I have experience caring for newborns up to teenagers. I am a non-smoker, CPR trained, and I have Act 33 & 34 clearances, a driver's license and my own car. I like pets. If you would like more information, please call 412-781-1783. Thanks for your consideration!

Curb alert...Wavemaster base
by Lorien Hart 13 Dec '15

13 Dec '15

This Wavemaster base is on the curb of Cordova Rd as you cone back up to King Ave (behind 1211 King Ave). Some cracks, but still perfectly usable with a new pad. It goes out with the trash Monday morning unless someone comes and gets it. Sent from my IPhone. If this doesn't make any sense, it's because my Mommy-brains are scrambled. My apologies. 😳😜

For Sale - Wine Glasses
by Rob Nichols 13 Dec '15

13 Dec '15

Hello Neighbors, I recently ordered 52 wine glasses from DollarTree.com for an upcoming event. As it turns out, I do not need them. My mistake is your bargain! If you need extra wine glasses for your upcoming holiday gathering or party, these would be perfect. These are real glass wine glasses (not plastic) and are simple but nice - see attached pictures. They've never been used and are still in the boxes they came in. I paid $1 per glass but will sell them for 75 cents per glass. Would prefer to sell them all together but will consider selling them in smaller groups. As an added bonus, I will deliver them to you for free (I am a former Highland Park resident now living in the North Hills). Please let me know if you're interested. Best, Rob Nichols (412) 432-6122 rwnt22(a)gmail.com
