Found cat

Jan from One Tree Hill

Is this your missing cat? I found this gorgeous friendly boy at the back of the Onehunga dump on Angle Street, Onehunga on Tuesday. I took him to the vets, he's not microchipped or neutered, is approximately 2 to 3 years old and has 4 white paws. If he is yours please private message me.

Childcare

Karen from Hillsborough

Hi!
I recently moved to the Hillsborough area and would like to offer two different services:
1. Childcare: teaching background, experience with all ages. Currently quite a bit of availability.
I love children, doing fun things together. Happy to help with homework.
Negotiable on hourly rate.
2. Coaching/mentoring: I'm just starting out and am offering free half-hour phone calls or face-to-face if you prefer. I specialise in listening and client-centred practice.
Look forward to hearing from you!
