Simona Fino may be that support person you need in the SF Bay Area.

Here is what she says she can offer,

“Direct support includes:

  • Caring for Baby: Cooking for and feeding baby; practicing infant potty training; bathing/nail care; providing age appropriate games/songs; cooking/exploring the kitchen; nature walks/garden time
  • Household Support: Housekeeping including dishes, laundry, sweeping, and tidying up
  • Wholesome meal preparation for baby and family
  • Herbal Preparations for baby and family to support and help with things such as teething, colds/flu, earaches/infections, nightmares/sleep disturbances, and stress
  • Organic gardening: Help with planting, weeding, watering, and harvesting; I can help you get that veggie/herb patch going you always wanted!”

More information on her website.

This needs our attention, now!

Please go to this link at the Pesticide Action Network and ask California  below and help urge “California’s leaders to get kid-harming pesticides off the table. The science is very clear: children’s developing brains and nervous systems can be harmed by exposure to certain pesticides — even at the very low levels commonly found on food. The insecticide chlorpyrifos is one such chemical, and its use is now under review in California.

Please add your name to the petition below urging the Department of Pesticide Regulation to take swift action on chlorpyrifos to protect children in California and nationwide” (taken from the PAN website).

It only takes a minute and could improve our children’s lives greatly!
