lambsWe all have such hectic lives and for those blessed with children, the balance of work vs. home life is even more difficult. The time it would take to search for quality daycare is just another time thief. Word of mouth and personal referrals are always best as they serve as a first hand account of what to expect. With that, I have to share what I think is the most hands on and comprehensive local daycare to the San Gabriel Valley, Little Lamb’s Home Daycare.

Marsha MacIntyre is the owner and licensed daycare provider for Little Lamb’s. With over 20 years experience and a degree in Child Development, Marsha is what I consider a perfect example of someone who does what they love. Building an addition to her property, she created the facility from the ground up. Every color used, each developmental toy and every experience is custom crafted. Marsha is not only part of the Options Food Program, but she also serves as a Mentor for the California Early Childhood Mentor Program for the Foothill Region Mentor Division.

In my opinion, Little Lamb’s is the place to enroll your children if you want them to be cared for in a place dedicated to helping your child develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.

I invite you to check out her site, follow her on Facebook and Twitter as well.

Have you ever gone to the gym (gasp!) and felt intimidated or self conscious (double gasp!) at the sight of all those fit bodies who clearly know what the heck they are doing? Do you have limitations that keep you from venturing out even though you are eager to get up and move? Perhaps you are interested in going big with a marathon or even a triathlon? (seriously gasping for air now!) What if you could achieve your goals, or even set some new ones, without the stress of a gym environment and still get quality assistance from a qualified and successful trainer? No need to Google and Yelp your way to wondering if you are making the right decision. A lifelong friend of mine is the answer to your fitness questions. Danny Perez has not only taken on fitness as a challenge for himself, but he has started his own business to help others do the same. Danny worked as a physical therapy aide for over 6.5 years at Casa Colina Hospital and Centers for Healthcare primarily working with patients who suffered spinal cord injuries (SCI), strokes, had total knee/hip replacements, and a number of other physically and mentally debilitating injuries or diseases. He provides quality in-home personal training for able and disabled people looking to stay healthy and active. I encourage you to cruise by and check out I Try Fitness to see for yourself. Check out all the options, cruise through the pics, and see the care & attention that is clearly a priority for him and his clientele. Forget Pinterest, he even offers meal planning! Whaaaat?!
