[Highland Park] Cooperative Childcare
by Katy Rank Lev 07 Dec '10

Allegheny Community Childcare Cooperative:Where enlightened families grow together Are you a self-employed parent seeking an affordable-yet-enriching childcare solution--one that allows you to keep your children close by and still work in peace? Unable to find such a place in Pittsburgh, I decided to create my own solution. A shared childcare cooperative and parenting community center would offer a unique service in the Pittsburgh region. My vision is to create a space where parents (our members) could work uninterrupted while our children play downstairs with like-minded parents in a safe, homelike environment. The Cooperative Space: The cooperative playthings would be designed to inspire imagination; made from natural materials; and emphasize art, music, and dance. Members would share both childcare duties and values aligned to foster creative, positive, and inspired experiences for our children. The workspace would offer members desks, wireless Internet and printer/scanner/fax services in a peaceful space--but not too far away to nurse or comfort our children. How It Works: Members will pay a small monthly fee to cover operational expenses of the co-op. The co-op will plan a schedule for members, trading time spent working with time spent in childcare. Each parent will be responsible for no more than 5 children at one time. Parents would be able to drop off children and leave the facility for up to two hours at one time (ideal for medical appointments or client meetings). The Members: To make this dream a reality, I'll need to find a group of families who share this vision. This is where you come in! To organize the cooperative, I'll need information about what works best for parents. If this cooperative sounds interesting to you, please click on this link to complete a brief survey and help us learn about your childcare needs. Make sure to pass this information along to other families who might want to be involved! Thanks so much for your support! Sincerely, Katy Rank Lev www.katyranklev.com

[Highland Park] Verizon home phone subscribers -having problems?!?!?
by susuboombatz＠aol.com 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Hello neighbors! is or has anyone in the 1200 block of N. Highland and the neighboring streets of Bryant, Hampton and Grafton been having phone problems with incoming and outgoing calls? I am following up for elderly family members who have had issues since last week and when I called Verizon they said it was a 'group problem' meaning more than 6 homes being effected. They said a tech was out and today, 12/7; but our family members are still having the same problem. They have another tech going out on Thurs., 12/9....just checking to see if anyone else has any other information and/or experiencing these problems with their phone service through Verizon. Thanks for any help! Sue, a hp neighbor

[Highland Park] fabric for room partition
by Heather Cramer 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Hi neighbors, I'm trying to make an attractive partition for our living room out of fabric and am looking for some material. A gauzy muslin or even cheesecloth would work well - nothing too heavy or opaque. If anyone has any larger scraps of material I could probably make an interesting patchwork if you're looking to get rid of unused pieces. Thank you! Heather Cramer

[Highland Park] Juicer, anyone?
by C.Heather Kropf 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Dear Neighbors, Before I go out shopping I thought I'd ask if anyone had a robust juicer that's gathering dust in a back corner of their kitchen cabinet, and would be willing it loan it to me for 1-2 months while I do a health-related detox (environmental illness)? I know it's a totally random question, but it can't hurt to ask. Quality juicers appear to be pricey and I don't really need one for very long. I'd be happy to barter, if required. Thanks, and happy holidays! Heather
