If you need help with transportation for your children, I'd love to help! Since moving to Los Altos from Minnesota two years ago, I have been helping area families with pick ups and drop offs. I am able to pick up from school, drop off at home, drop off at activities, etc. If you are looking for something permanent, or even if you just need someone in a pinch, feel free to keep my number/email and give me a call or drop me a note. I am available during the day as well if you need transportation for your little one from kindergarten/preschool/daycare. I have a full size Land Rover, as well as car seats (infant/convertible/booster). I've been a full time mom for 13 years, but in my "previous life": Elementary Education teacher, nanny, camp counselor, Sunday School teacher, Legal Assistant, District Salon Coordinator for Regis Corporation I charge $20 Read more per ride.

Tami is, quite simply, an answer to prayer. I'm a (mostly) SAHM, but when I need a babysitter, I call Tami! She has cared for my son intermittently since he was 3.5 months old (he's now almost 9 months). She has a gentle & loving spirit, and I know my baby is in good hands when he's with her. Even better, HE likes her too - and we've struggled with separation anxiety, so it makes a big difference knowing that he'll be happy and loved while mama's away. Highly highly highly recommend!
