Your kid is away from home, life happens.

A local parent, here to provide friendly and dependable support for your peace of mind.

How it Works:

I know how stressful it can be having your child away from home. I’m here to help with just about anything that might come up.

Some examples of services provided:

  • Local hotel and Airbnb references. I’ll go check them out and give honest feedback.

  • Restaurant and bar recommendations. The Binghamton area has some great (and not so great) options.

  • Local neighborhood information. Let me go check out those off-campus apartments, there are some great (and really, really lousy) options. Renting in Binghamton is an adventure.

  • Assistance with student car problems. I know a ton of local mechanics, tire places, oil change guys, etc. Like anywhere else, Binghamton is full of shysters. I’ll help you avoid them.

  • Pickup and delivery of just about anything. Furniture, small appliances, food, prescriptions, birthday cakes, you name it. I’ll find your kid and make sure the item gets to them, I know the campus. Happy picture upon delivery included.

  • Recommendations on local day trips, area attractions, etc. The area has some beautiful parks, ski areas, u pick farms, and fun stuff for kids. Avoid a frustrating day and make the time worthwhile.

  • Assistance with parking. Binghamton can be a nightmare, especially in the downtown area. I know the secrets!

  • Rides to or from the bus station, doctors appointments, etc.

  • Assistance with shipping. On campus mail-rooms can be a hassle. Ship it to me, I’ll deliver. Especially relevant with food items requiring refrigeration if your kid has dietary issues. (Been there, not fun). Let’s talk.

  • Help with move in and move out. Hauling to and from storage facilities not a problem.

  • Help with off-campus apartment issues and security deposit repairs. Bing landlords play lots of games, let me be your local representative.

  • Finally, and most importantly, I’d love to be a smiling, friendly, reassuring face for your kid. I know college life can be lonely and tough at times.
