Client Run Businesses

One of the things I love about teaching childbirth classes is that I get to meet people who run all kinds of interesting businesses. I'm devoting this part of the Birth Zone website to putting the word out about them. If you are a Birth Zone client and would like your business included here, just let me know!

Pesos  Kitchen & Lounge

I'm typing this in something of a food haze having eaten one of the most delicious breakfasts ever! Their stuffed french toast is wickedly wonderful. The rest of my family had egg breakfasts and highly recommend the spicy sausages.

I read a review that described Pesos as having a "youthfully throbbing bar scene" but that only applies to the night-life. It feels like a great family place the rest of the time!

Pesos is at the intersection of Queen Anne Ave and Mercer, near Key Arena in Seattle. Matt Walker is the manager and a class alum.  Call Pesos at (206) 283-9353

Tolt Tree Care

We recently had a very tall, dying cedar tree felled by a client. The great job he did inspired me to put the word out about client businesses. If you have need of any of the following tree services, I highly recommend you call Tolt Tree Care:

1. Removal
2. Stump Grinding
3. View enhancement
4. Tree trimming
5. Pruning
6. Logging
7. Chipping
8. Clean-up
9. Emergencies

Call Jeff at 425-256-0536 or email him at ToltTreeCare@gmail.com.
