<p>DS is going to Wash U this fall as a freshman, and we don’t know anyone in St. Louis. Have relatives a few hours away for big emergencies, but noone right nearby. We’re looking to make contact with a family out there who could be available to provide infrequent (if at all) support for our son. We live fairly near Babson College (were in Sudbury) and my commute brings me near there, so we could reciprocate by doing the same for your daughter. </p>
<p>Son is absolutely expected to fend for himself for all day to day stuff, we’d just love to know there was someone to call to check on him/bring him something if he were really sick, in some other kind of jam.</p>
<p>Willing to provide references (am nurse at Children’s Hospital, Boston) and negotiate “contract” about what is reasonable for us/son to ask for help with.</p>
<p>PM if interested, thanks.</p>
