  Moving to Windsor CT next week Can anyone direct me to where I can find work and childcare? I tried craigslist and some listings seemed a little shady and the few responses didn't sit right. I'm a carpenter and plan on becoming a contractor in the near future so I have experience remodeling and handyman work. I'm also a crafty guy, love making wooden signs, furniture, etc for friends and family. Thank you in advance

  For childcare look at 211 childcare.org. If I remember correctly you put in your zip code (06095) for Windsor and it will give you what’s in the area. I think you also have the option of checking centers or home centers or both.

  Beth E. asked:

  I'm trying to find part time child care for 3 children. Not sure what the hours or days would be yet. Will hopefully know by tomorrow evening. Is there any really good websites to check out or any stay home moms or college students interested in making some extra cash? Must have references!!!

  Andrea B. asked:

  Hi neighbors! My family relocated to Granby a few weeks ago and are loving our new neighborhood and community! I am getting ready to start work and have been researching child care for our almost 2yo and 4month old girls. Can anyone offer any insight to home daycares? Does anyone know of any reputable nannies? I have already researched and visited the 2 daycare facilities in town but am just trying to explore all options. Thank you in advance for any help!

  www.211 childcare.org can give you licensed options! I wish I had room in my home daycare!

  Amanda T. asked:

  Happy Monday! I will be returning to work and will need full time childcare for my 3.5 month old baby starting in December. I have something lined up but am starting to second guess my decision (probably normal). My baby is so little and I don't want her to get lost in the shuffle of a big daycare provider. What are your recommendations for either an in-home or one of the local day care centers? We live near exit 9 and my husband works in Sandy Hook. TIA

  Try Merryhill Child Care on Queen St. Both my kids went there and loved it. It's a small center and the staff is wonderful. Really the next best thing to family!

  Emily K. asked:

  Hi, I am looking for a daycare or someone interested in providing nanny service in the Plainville area. I am due with my first baby at the end of September and will be on maternity leave through December. I would not need services until the beginning of January. I am open to all suggestions including, for example, a stay at home mom or someone who is retired. Thank you!

  

  Nichole S. replied:

  Have you considered a licensed home daycare? I run a licensed home daycare in Plainville, but I don't have availability for infants until next summer as I'm expecting my second in January and already have a 10 month old in my care. 211 childcare.org will give you a list of local licensed daycare providers.

  Hi guys. Does anyone have a home daycare that you love? We're moving to the area soon and would appreciate any recommendations on a warm and licensed home daycare that could care for an infant and a toddler, preferably with flexible schedules. Thank you!

  All of the licensed providers are listed in the 211 childcare finder: http://www.211 childcare.org/

  Laurie M. asked:

  I have clients looking for day care in West Hartford and since my kids are now young adults, I'm totally unaware of good providers in our town. Any good experience/recommendations?

  Kathy S. asked:

  Can anyone recommend a home daycare here in Newington? Or even over the Newington line in West Hartford or New Britain? My son currently goes to a large daycare on the turnpike, but I think it's time to switch back to a home-based daycare. TIA.

  Melissa H. asked:

  Hi Moms! I am looking into daycare options for the fall and was wondering if there are any home-based daycares in Sandy Hook that anyone could recommend?

  

  Monica M. replied:

  Check out 211 childcare.org. They have listings for all providers (centre or in-home). The listings are only for licensed and certified providers, FYI. The site is run by the United Way of CT.
