Single, professional mom seeking help with kids/home in exchange for rent. Room available in College Terrace house half a block from Stanford. I have two kids (3 and 11) and a busy full time job!

This could be a great opportunity for a student or professional who works in the area. Females only, please. We can only take an individual (no couples, families, friends) - sorry! While the room is large, the hallway to get to the semi-private bathroom is shared.

What kind of swap am I looking for? Trade of approx. 25 hours/wk of childcare, including:

• Help with the kids most weekday mornings (7-8 am ish)
• Pick up 3 yr old from day care two blocks away (5-6 pm ish)
• Some driving to and from sports activities (5-7 pm ish)

I can be flexible about exact schedule and can tradeoff certain days to help accommodate classes or other activity.
