Beautiful Website For Special Needs
Our Special Kids was created by Debbie Feit, mother to two special needs kids and official driver of the therapy shuttle bus. Schlepping her kids to doctor and therapy appointments left her feeling drained, but the camaraderie and comfort she found among her fellow parents in the waiting room left her inspired. It offers support in a virtual community for parents of special needs children:  www.ourspecialkids.com

Editorial Policy:
  Jane's List items are selected by our editors based upon information you have sent us as well as 'field experience' conducted by our editors.  We want to keep the legitimacy, integrity and fun of Jane's List intact so we'll never make a dime off your meal at a restaurant nor a penny from the sale of the latest toy we told you about.   And we ask the same in return:  all submissions about a product or business to Jane's List should follow the same guideline (that you not affiliated with the business).  We want you to send us your information to include in our daily lists:  available nanny/babysitter (or need for a babysitter/nanny), a fun place/event to take your children for fun (especially if free), a great place for mom's night out, fun crafts to do with your kids, that awesome new exercise class you have taken, your garage sale, items you wish to sell, great recipe, funny video, sentimental poem, great gift ideas, important safety information, etc.  We also LOVE to receive announcements (birth, press coverage of a local mom or business, etc) and will always be happy to post them.  You can submit your requests to us at kristy@parkcityjane.com ATTN:  Jane's List Item.  Please make sure that you give us plenty of advance notice (we require a week in advance to guarantee posting your information).

And, no, we would never sell our subscriber list to anyone--that would be lame.
