Grandparents' Group?
by Richelle Jacobs 10 Nov '16

10 Nov '16

Hello ~ I will be coming to Highland Park intermittently to take care of my baby grandson when his childcare is closed. I am wondering if there are any other grandparents (granny- or grampie-nannies) out there who would like company occasionally as you (we) care for the kids. My grandson will be only three months old when I’m next there (last week of this year), but I’m looking ahead as well. Anyone interested in grandparent meet-ups? Richelle (“Ricky”) Jacobs
