[Highland Park] Housekeeper recommendations
by Jamie Contis 20 May '11

20 May '11

Several people asked for the Housekeeper recommendations. Here you go. I have a wonderful house cleaner who also cleans a bunch of other homes here in Highland Park (and around Pittsburgh). She cleans our house bi-weekly and it works out great. Previously (over the past 7 years) I tried out a company which was a complete rip-off. Also, I did not feel comfortable or safe not knowing who was going to be showing up at my house to clean. I also have used two other independent cleaners whom were simply not responsible to show up on the scheduled dates and times. I feel she is a super reliable, dependable, observant, responsible cleaner. Deborah Levine <tetelevine(a)yahoo.com> Call Debra Levine at The Iron City Sweepers, Environmentally Friendly Housekeepers at 412-418-5558. She has worked for a number of my clients with rave reviews. We use THE MAIDS. They come the 1st Thursday of the month. Have used then for years. If there's cleaning error, give them a call. there is a very professional cleaning service that i would like to reccomend they are very very reasonable and trustworthy and insured that would be angel dust professional cleaning services My daughter and I (We live in adjoining duplexes.) have been very happy with Michele Sacramento. Michele Sacramento 412-979-5085 shel24_2000(a)yahoo.com Hi I am a local and experienced housekeeper with a small business of my own. I may be able to take you on as a client bi-weekly. I have been with some clients over 10 years. Give me a call if you are interested and maybe we can set up a time to meet. Thank you, kimberly Swartz 412-443-4100 kjs9459(a)verizon.net My name is Jessica Koehler. I am a member of listserve and I'm responding to your ad for the housekeeping position. I have past commercial housekeeping experience, and I currently provide residential domestic services. I am available for bi-weekly housecleaning, and I would be available to start as soon as needed. I can provide more references, both professional and personal, and copies of my clearances, if needed. Thanks for your consideration, and I hope to hear back from you. I can be reached by phone: 412-337-0159 or e-mail: healtobefree(a)gmail.com. I clean for two families in the East End. I am flexible and I really CLEAN. I charge $25.00 an hour and I usually take about 2-21/2 hours to clean bathroom, kitchen, LR and DR plus some extras as needed. If you are interested let me know. Mike and Nicole Carlin <carlin5707(a)gmail.com> I saw your request on the Highland Park list serve. I know a wonderful cleaning woman--I taught her when she first moved to Pgh., she's cleaned for me several times, and I've recommended her to several other people, always with great results. Her name is Araceli ("Are-uh-SEL-ee"), and her email is <pittsburgh.araceli(a)gmail.com> . She's prompt, responsible, thorough, very honest--and she even cuts kids' hair if you happen to have any who are looking particularly shaggy--; ) We found Priscilla Boggio priscibm(a)gmail.com via the HP listserv. Priscilla and her mom, Carmen, cleaned our home for the first time a couple weeks ago. They provided excellent services for $15/hour. Based on the first visit, I'm very impressed. Hi Jamie- Mary Bianchi cleans my house once a month and she is the most thorough house cleaner ever! She is also very easy going and a lovely person. She is a talented artist -but she also loves to clean! Her email: marybianchi(a)verizon.net Hope this helps. Joan Anson -- Jamie Contis jcontis(a)gmail.com

[Highland Park] help starting an anti-smoking non-profit organization
by Heather Cramer 20 May '11

20 May '11

Having not found a group in Pittsburgh dedicated to addressing issues of cigarette smoking in public places around our city and raising awareness about the effects of smoking and second-hand smoke, I've decided to start a non-profit organization for this purpose. I have no experience with starting up something like this so ideally I'd like to get together with others who have done some grassroots work. I'm very passionate about creating more public environments where air can be free of the toxins found in cigarette smoke and educating the public (particularly youth). If anyone is interested in taking action and participating in this cause please contact me at heather.m.cramer(a)gmail.com or 412.361.1402. I am eager to see where this can go. Thank you so much, Heather Cramer

by Rob Nichols 20 May '11

20 May '11

Hello Neighbors, I'm preparing to move and must sell my dining table and 4 chairs. Asking $150 for the set, or best offer. Would prefer to sell together rather than separately but I'm flexible. The table is a medium colored wood, approximately 44" round. Chairs are a chocolate brown faux leather, high back. All were purchased new at Target 6 years ago and are still in excellent condition. Pictures attached. I'm located on Highland Avenue near Stanton Avenue. Let me know if you're interested. Cheers, Rob (412) 432-6122 rwnt22(a)gmail.com
