We are happy to pay an extra deposit and cleaning fee if necessary).

Please email tracymalloy.curtis@gmail.com if you have an apartment to rent or know of someone who needs summer tenants.

Local moms seek space for co-op preschool

Hello neighbors,

We are a group of local moms seeking space for our co-op preschool, to begin in the fall and run on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 AM to noon.  The ideal space will be clean, roomy enough for five to seven two-year-old children and two adults to play and learn comfortably, and allow for storage of small tables and chairs and a few supplies and access to a bathroom.  Good light, kitchen and outdoor space are wonderful pluses.  We will consider private homes, as well as church and community center spaces and the like. 

Please contact Karin at karinpaeffgen at yahoo dot com.  We are also happy to hear from anyone with suggestions or leads. 

Thanks and Happy Spring, Karin

the 23rd) and plan to move to our new home at the beginning of
november, but a flexible end date would be lovely. We would love to
be in the Ditmas Park / Prospect Park South areas but we are open to
other neighborhoods as well. Thank You!
