Post to the urbanMamas Forums

Wanna post a childcare related question?  Or maybe you have an opening at your childcare facility or preschool? Or maybe you want to rave about your fabulous nanny?  Or perhaps you're looking to sell / purchase, or pass along goods and services to fellow urbanMamas?  Or do you want to connect with other parents from a school or camp you're considering for your child?  Here's a way to allow the urbanMamas community at large to post on the childcare and exchange forum.

  1. Go to Typepad and login as "pdxmamas@gmail.com", with "pdxmamas" as your password.
  2. Select the appropriate forum: uM Camps, uM Childcare, uM Exchange, or uM Schools.
  3. Click on "Begin a New Post".  Create a title, select the appropriate categories for the question, and create your post.  Please remember include at least a first name an email address if you want to be contacted!
  4. If you're adding a school, please add the name, location and website for the school so others have a point of reference.
  5. If you're adding a camp, please add the name, location, website and a brief description of the program.  Also, please indicate the age-group served (preK, elem, middle, or high school) and whether it's a partial or full day.
  6. Once you've formatted, spelled-checked, added the appropriate links, hit the Save button and it will go to us for review and moderation. 

We will only post questions that are relevant and appropriate.  Posts will appear on our Childcare Forum, Exchange Forum, Schools Forum, or Camps Forum as soon as we can get to it.  We may also spread out posts if there are too many in a day.  Happy posting!
