HI saw your post. I am a certified teacher currently a SAHM. We are probably moving this summer so i don't feel i could commit to summercare,
i hope you find someone.
If you don't mind my asking, what sorts of rates would you be willing to pay? I'm looking to do something like this once we get moved and settled. I watched a little boy 2 years ago, 2 days a week for 9 hrs a day and was only paid $30 a week. Would you say that was a reasonable rate??
Actually as i was typing, i just thought of a friend of mine who is watching 2 little ones right now. I just ran into her last week. She lives sort of behind the Station Dinner theater in that area over by LeCom. if you are intrested let me know and i'll get her number for you.

Hi Lynn,
We currently live Near the zoo and are looking to move to Harborcreek. I have 2 preschoolers (4 and 5 1/2 what was I thinking!! haha) There are so many lovely homes in Millcreek and wonderful elementary schools but i have no interest in my children going to McDowell. I went to a small county hs and felt lost enough, I couldn't even imagine graduating with such a huge class like McDowell does. do you mind my asking the positives and negatives that you have encountered at mcDowell?? it seems like they have a lot of extra-curriculur activities to offer, if you are a go getter. But again the huge amount of children in one building just seems crazy to me.
I sent an email to my friend christy about childcare for you. I'll let you know when i hear back from her. She is a real sweetheart and has worked in childcare for a long time and within the last 4 years as been providing care in her home. I can't say enough good things about her, her own kids and the kids she watches.

Your daughter is a total cutie by the way!

Hey, nice to hear from you. Saw the postings about childcare. You have a sister who is offering free childcare don't forget.

Great...I am glad you joined!!! I love the pic of your daughter...what a cutie!!!

HI Lynn, glad to see you have someone who might be interested. The original person i was going to refer you to, only sits close friends and family. I know of someone else, who has a 5 yr old and currently watches toddlers in her home, near Mercyhurst. I sent her an email with your request and haven't heard back, she may be looking for a full time job out of the home now that her daughter will be in kindergarten.
Good luck to you though, I really should start doing something like this, My kids would really enjoy it and the extra money would be nice. Well, have a great summer.

Thank you for your help. We are looking forward to this summer. My family lives in Millcreek, do you know of a community calender? I would like to find out about summer camps and summer activities for the kids.

Thank you for your help, we are near McDowell too. Closer to Asbury Elem. Are there any mom groups that get together, like a brunch or play group? I will have to check out the Millcreek Athel., thanks again! Emilie
