Nanny share on the horizon...

I sent out an email to the Oregon Women Lawyers list serv this morning about child care and already received this back from a woman attorney with an 18-mo-old boy willing to share her nanny:

"[Our nanny] is wonderful. She is Brazilian and speaks only Portuguese to my son (my request – she speaks English too). I don’t allow any television other than a 15 minute video (Your Child Can Read). She is active (we have zoo and OMSI memberships), and she goes at least twice a week. She takes [our son] to the library for reading time at least once a week, and has play dates too. She cooks great food – no junk. She is dependable and trustworthy. I could not be happier with her. My son adores her. We would be happy to have another child on board – my son would love it. $8 is fine. Her typical hours are 8:30-6:30 M-F. We also have a large goofy dog and two cats. We have a designated playroom and live near Irving Park."

Sounds pretty perfect. So we are going to meet after finals :)

I know, which means it'll be easy to swing by and say "Haaaay!"
