Hello all,

We are a Marin based children's media startup and are trying to figure out the best way to recruit a very senior marketing person somewhere in Marin. Does anyone have any suggestions? Ideally, we're looking for a Marin mom who used to hold a senior marketing position (ideally with a product, media, or children's oriented company) and is interested in getting back into it. We didn't want to put out a listing on Craigslist but didn't know of a better way to find that perfect person. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Hello! Although I am only 3 months pregnant, I'm already thinking about who will take care of our baby since both my husband and I work full time. Could anyone recommend any day care facility that would accept a 4 month old? I plan on staying home the first 3 months.

Thanks!
