So we are back in the US but our Argentine babysitter is looking for some work. She is very bright, extremely loving and affectionate and fantastic with children. She watched our 2 boys ages 2 & 4 while we were there. She charges $40 pesos for the day and $50 for the evening. We miss her...

We are returning to the US and need to check some bags. Do you know if American Airlines at Ezeiza will accept pesos for our checked luggage?

Hello, There was a recent thread on this but there was no mention of where these can be bought. Thanks!

So, I am home with my 2 little boys but can arrange a babysitter often enough to take Spanish classes twice a week. The problem is the cost. I looked into Vamos and there it is $25 US and hour. That adds up pretty quick, seeing as each class is 2 hours. If there was at least one other beginner...

What happened? I tried searching for this but couldn't find what you are referring to?

Ok, so we've been here almost a month and it seems to me that our kids (ages 3 and 4) may do better if they were in a program. We originally wanted to keep them at home as we are only here for 4 months. But they are just going stir crazy and the hour or two at the park just isn't enough. Plus...

Thank you thank you for this! Not yet sure if it will be close enough for us, but we had looked into swimming at Club de Amigos and it was so expensive and prohibitive with respect to hours and time offerings. This looks worth traveling for!

Where do you get these rates? Downtown on the street? Is that the "blackmarket"? We saw people advertising in the street on Florida, but I thought I 'd post here first to hear tips about exchanging that way. Thanks!

Ditto! We signed a contract for 4 months and are quite miserable and can't get out of it! Also when we arrived they wanted us to pay the entire stay upfront. We said "NO thank you" and they were ok with that.

Hello, We are new here and are looking for a place to take our kids swimming/ lessons. Today we visited Club de Amigos but it is too expensive for our short term stay (4 months) and you have to leave your children there and sign them up for programs. I thought the grounds were totally...

Thank you to everyone for the pm's and suggestions here in this thread. We contacted a realtor and will hopefully find something that will improve our life at least in one way. Visited Cluc de Amigos today, but they don't have people there on weekends to give information or tours so we totally...

Thank you Aleina! Will do, as long as it is not raining quite like today.

Thank you for the responses. To answer Aleina Dee, we are living in Alto Palermo near the mall. "Quieter" sounds nice to me right about now, as I am writing and the floor is pounding w/ music from the downstairs neighbors. Children are trying to sleep and asking to go home! It is breaking my...

So we just arrived a week ago from the US. Our last 5 weeks in the US were spent traveling to a new place every week, so my kids (2 boys ages 3 & 4) were not in the best place for yet another new place. They are exhausted and already just want to be back home. While we have a perfectly fine...

two years later, I am also moving to BA for only 4 months with my now 4-year-old and 3-year-old boys and would love to participate in something at the Waldorf school. Did you ever get anywhere with that while you were here? Any suggestions for nurtuting activities with the kids? I'm a little...

I too have an almost 5-year-old boy and 3-year-old boy and will be homeschooling (I use that term loosely though). Do you have a preschool curriculum? I am interested in the Christopherus (Waldorf). We are non-religious, Unitarianish. There are several Waldorf schools in the area but none have...
