I need a good doctor...

Since we moved here we have taken our kids to Gilbert Pediatrics and honestly I really do not like that place for many reasons. With my baby coming soon, I think it is time for me to find a new PCP. Does anybody have any suggestions on a really good Pediatrician or even just a Family Doctor preferably close by?

Openings for in home daycare

Hey all its Kelly here. As many of you know I run a daycare out of my home. I have lost all but 2 of my kids and am in desperate need of more kids, or I will have to look outside of the home for a job. I have references and the children can start ASAP. If you hear of anyone needing daycare please pass them my name and number 480-430-2801. I have no pets (except for fish) and my house is very clean. For the children that are 3 and older I do try and do about a 30 minute preschool lesson each day. Thank you in advance for any and all referrals.

SINGING FOR KIDS!!!!

Miss Kristen is back! Yeah!
Singing is a wonderful way to encourage young children to develop their motor skills, build their self-confidence, and increase their oral and memory skills. We have a lot of fun singing old favorites as well as learning new fun songs and marching with some musical instruments. We’ve been singing and performing for over seven years. Check out our website to experience the fun!
www.SingAlongGang.com . Please leave a comment with information how to contact you and I will be happy to get in touch with you and let you know more!

Classes start September 4th! So hurry and sign up!
