Gunbarrel Estates Co-Op

All interested parents of young children in the Gunbarrel Estates and surrounding Gunbarrel neighborhood's are welcome to join the GE Babysitting Co-op.

The babysitting Co-op has been operating in the neighborhood for more than 30 years, as a way for parents to trade points instead of money for childcare.

Besides being free and allowing you some free time from your children either for work or play, the benefits of using the Co-op are many: the convenience and peace of mind of having your child watched by an adult in your neighborhood, the development of friendships between your child and neighborhood children he/she might not otherwise meet until reaching school age and the development of friendships for yourself with other Cooperative members.

Contact Danielle Zaitzew for more information on joining at zaitzew@gmail.com
