I was in communication with someone I found on craigslist.org; but I haven't heard back from her since asking for references.

Oh well, something'll come up, right? I mean, we just got here and there's always that initial, settling in period.

Thanks again,

Please be very wary of craigslist.com! There have been several recent stories in the news about bogus and fabricated entries and referrals! Personally, I would not trust any information gleaned from the Internet concerning personal recommendations and/or referrals, especially where the safety of my children are concerned! In my opinion, I would stay with physically verifiable caretakers!
