venus


we have been beyond blessed to have venus and her daughter kathleen in our lives to take care of natalie. in august 2008, natalie started going to mrs. venus' house 3 days a week...on my work days. it has been so amazing to fully trust the person who cares for natalie. venus loves natalie and she is very good to her. it has been a great fit for us and we are sad that in february 2010, it is coming to an end. venus has been caring for little ones for many years, and she is retiring in february to move to alabama. we are really, really sad to lose her and kathleen.

in six months, i will be in the same boat i was in after natalie was born. the boat's name is "i don't have daycare." i am starting to freak out a little and just praying that the right thing will fall into place. but for all of you atlanta readers out there, i need your help. if you know of any good day care options that you would recommend, please leave a comment below. any help or ideas are certainly appreciated!!

Hey Kelly,

It's Keri sullivan- a now out in the open blog stalker :) Listen, one of my best friends from high school works at Oglethorpe Univ and this she has looked for daycares INTENSELY!! No one has scoured with a fine toothed comb more. Here is what she says

"We are on three waiting lists: Kids Kondo, Brookhaven Christian Church and Brookhaven United Methodist Church. The only one near Emory (or sort of close) would be Kids Kondo (on Highland Ave in VA-Hi). The other two are near Oglethorpe. I have heard great things about the YWCA on Highland Avenue in Va Highland neighborhood, but we didn't look into it as we're already on three lists! "

Good luck! Your baby girl is amazingly beautifuL!
