I have 4-year-old twins. My husband and I will be
traveling and need to leave our twins at home for 5
nights with a caregiver. What is the going rate for
the over night care? I was planning on paying the
hourly rate I pay my caregiver during the daytime
hours, and I wanted to offer $100 for the over night
(from the time my children go to bed until they wake
up.) I couldn't find any postings on this when I
searched and it may just be the key words aren't coming
up. Does anyone have any recommendations here?

Our 13 month old twin boys seem to be tired of the toys
they've had since last November/December. These toys
are all in great shape, purchased new and well-loved at
first. Examples include a folding actvity wall, race
track w. two cars, little people farm and a VTech
Brainy Baby electronic collage. Anyone with
similarly-aged kids interested in exchanging a box of
toys?

No, I haven't heard of such a thing for preschool, only
for elementary school. There is a great book out there
about all the SF Preschools...I think it's called
Finding a San Francisco Preschool...if not, it's
something like that. That was really helpful, and also
attending the POM event and talking to other parents.

I heard Darcy Campbell speak to the club about
preschool admissions a couple of years ago and remember
her mentioning that she is available to do preschool
counseling. She was a really great speaker. She's the
director of the Cow Hollow School in the Presidio.

last year's preschool event. It contains her bio-
