Urban Mamas

We are thrilled to be bringing our new program to the Pacific Northwest for the 2012 schoolyear, but we are in need of a space! We seek to serve in the range of 30 preschool aged students, no more than 42, and want to find the ideal location to house this program.While we find a challenge thrilling we do not seek to navigate conditional use permits, TIFs or the like and would like a space with the same previous use (commercial, E use, etc..).

Please contact us if you know of childcare centers that are relocating, vacancies of spaces or other leads. And we will be back with information on how to enroll your gifted, bright and creative child!

Thanks to all the parents who attended my most recent lecture on Will and Trust Planning for the Busy Parent.  One of the moms who came shared with me the last person SHE learned about who drafted a Will.  Not a personal acquaintance to be sure.  But very fun non the less.  Thanks Emily for sharing these links with me and now Urban Mamas.

Hello, does anyone have extra breast milk they are looking to donate?  I was unable to breastfeed my daughter for very long and we did we receive some donated breast milk, which I am very thankful for, but am all out and now giving formula.  I know breast milk is best and would love to provide that for her.  If you have extra, I would really appreciate it.  I can provide storage bags.  You can also email me directly at heidimarie78@gmail.com.

Thank you!!

Are you a mommy who loves shopping? Do you find it harder and harder to shop with your little one? Well, here at Nordstrom Washington Square, we’re working to make you’re your shopping experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible! We’d like to offer you a complimentary play area for your children between the ages 2 ½-8 years old. This play area is called Play N, where children can color, play games, watch movies and socialize while you shop.

You are welcome to utilize Play N for up to two hours while you shop within our store. Children do not have to be potty trained, although attendants cannot tend to their potty needs. We will page you if needed. There are other guidelines in place for the best interest of the children that you may want to know ahead of time. No food or drinks are allowed, no toys from home, and no contagious illnesses.

We’re excited to announce that Nordstrom Washington Square was the first Nordstrom store to have a Play N, and is now one of two stores offering the service. So far the response has been amazing! We continue to look forward to serving our customers and are committed to keeping your kids happy while you shop!

Feel free to take advantage of our Play N Sunday thru Thursday from 10am to 7pm and Friday thru Saturday from 10am to 9pm. For any questions or for further details, give us a call at (503) 620-0555 ext 2273 and a Play N attendant will gladly provide more information.

Have you already visited or utilized Play N? We’d love to here your feedback! Please use the comment section below!

We look foward to seeing you soon,

Nordstrom Washington Square - 503.620.0555 - 9700 SW Washington Square Rd. Tigard, OR 972333
