There are two awesome Plum District deals running right now for Winter Camps at a STEAL of a price, and another one coming up on Monday that I wanted to share. But you have to move quick if you want them because I think they are only good for another day or so…
A couple weeks ago I did a post on SeekingSitters OC which is a babysitting referral service that will find you a great, reliable, background-checked sitter when you need one. In doing my research for that post, I spoke with Kim Kane, the local Orange County owner, for almost an hour about her company and the service they provide.
At the time, my husband and I were planning on having to cancel on friends for an upcoming fun dinner event because we didn’t have a sitter available. Because I have never left my kids with someone I hadn’t previously met, it didn’t occur to me to use a service like this. In fact, the thought of it before would have made me nervous.
But after talking to her I felt so comfortable with her and her company that I went ahead and asked her if I could give SeekingSitters OC a try so we could go to our dinner. Which we did this past weekend, and I am thrilled to share my personal experience today!
Today is my birthday (woo hoo) so I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than with one of my favorite giveaways – a week of Team OC Winter Camp 2011!
I know it is hard to wrap your head around the fact that before we know it the kids will be out of school for the holiday break. If your kids are like mine and crave activities, this break can make for two very long weeks!
Team OC winter camp is the perfect opportunity for your child to have a blast when school is out and burn off some major energy with their plethora of fun activities.
The winter camp days are a combination of gymnastics, cheer, dance, trampoline, sports activities, arts and crafts, games, rockwall, zipline, and the AMAZING INDOOR BOUNCE HOUSE!
“I don’t have a sitter.” How many of us have missed out on fun (adult only!) event because of that statement? Personally, my husband and I almost had to cancel on friends for a fun couples’ dinner coming up this month because my parents and other babysitting options were not available. That is until I got acquainted with SeekingSitters, an on demand OC babysitting referral service that does all the work to find you a great, trustworthy babysitter when you need one.
After to talking to the local OC owner Kim Kane, I felt completely comfortable booking a sitter through their service because there were so many things that gave me peace of mind. I will share my personal experience using one of their sitters next month, stay tuned!
Let me share a little of what I learned about SeekingSitters and how their service works.
One of the things I love about my job is the fact that I get to learn about new things all the time. Before this article, I didn’t know one thing about the equestrian world in OC, so when Ivy Gate Farm inquired about becoming a sponsor on Tiny Oranges, I thought what a unique place to be able to share with my readers!
I don’t know about you, but if my child exhibited an interest in horses and I wanted to sign her up for horse riding lessons, I wouldn’t know where to go.
That’s why I am very excited to introduce you to the fabulous Ivy Gate Farm nestled in the foothills of San Juan Capistrano, a family-oriented boutique farm offering riding lessons and training for those with a passion for horses.
I had the opportunity to visit in person last week and I was really looking forward to it because I had never been to a horse stable before…
