    I am one of the ‘Diaper Drivers’, and I will drive to your home in West Seattle to pick up diapers/donations for WestSide Baby; as a longtime on-call infant caregiver (aka, babysitter) in homes of WS families, I see most families go through tons of diapers that they either get at Costco or order online, by the case load; this is not possible financially or logistically for many low income families, and diapers are absolutely vital for infant/toddler health & well being; so please call me (Diane) at 206-949-7377 or email divincent@aol.com

    I will also gladly pick up donations for the WestSide Baby’s On-going Wish List:
    Clothing Shelves:
    Socks and Underwear – new packages
    Any gently used, clean clothes or shoes newborn to size 12.
    Hygiene Items (shampoo, baby wash, diaper cream)
    Baby wipes
    Baby Gear: (gently used & clean)

    and I have WestSide Baby donation receipts, if you want to contribute check or cash

Sorry, comment time is over.
