Beware Doyle Landscaping
by michelle kaplan 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

BEWARE of Doyle's Landscaping I am sad to have to do this however, I have appreciated everyone who has posted about contractors who have not worked out well. I had/have a difficult situation with Ken Doyle of Doyle's landscaping. He was hired to put in new front steps, build a retaining wall and fix another retaining wall. Not only has it taken over a month, but he doesn't have the technical and intricate knowledge of hardscape. Additionally, he left his trailer on our street for over 3 weeks, didn't clean up my yard each day and had poor communication in not responding to my calls and texts. There is much more about Ken If you are interested, feel free to private message me. Again, just a warning as a few people who have used him have encountered similar issues. Happy Summer!

ISO After School Babysitter
by Margaret Overbagh-Feld 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

Hello! We are in search of an after school babysitter for this coming school year in Highland Park. We’re looking for someone to pick our kids up each afternoon at our neighborhood elementary school at 3:30 (pre-k pickup of the 3.5 year old) and hang out/play until pickup for the 1st grader at 4:00. Then walk the kids home (about ten minutes), feed them snack, play or work on homework until I finish work at 5:00. I work from home, so I’ll be around most of the time. We also have a very friendly dog who might insist on petting, but otherwise not require much. Average of 7.5 hours per week with a set schedule based on the PPS calendar. Would be a great gig for a student or a stay-at-home parent looking for a little extra money. Possibility of more hours on early dismissal days and during vacations, but not required. $15-$20/hour based on experience. We're up to date on our Covid Vaccines and expect you would be too. Let me know if you’re interested! best, Margaret
