polly hope

We have a lovely German girl coming to au pair with us over the summer - she is very good at English so will need advanced course and something not too expensive and time consuming, can anyone recommend a good one - she wants to improve her grammar and meet like minded au pairs, Many thanks Polly

Hi, I am looking for a live in help - perhaps a foreign exchange student or other student of some kind, that would give me 15 hrs help in the house a week (not child care) and two nights baby sitting a week in exchange for rent. does anyone know where i could look for this kind of arrangement? Many thanks Polly

Hi home birthers- just been reading this thread - hope you don't mind me hijacking it Jo - I am expecting no. 2 any minute now and had number 1 at home with help of Brierly team. we have just got our our birth pool and realised it has a socking great hole in it which is proving difficult to repair - just wondered if anyone has one we can borrow - we have the liner already for Eco birth pool regular and now am without pool. I am due in a week but last one came early so would much appreciate a swift reply - many thanks and happy to chat over the phone Jo if you want to talk HB it really made sense to me and I always felt so safe a well looked after by Brierly team, Many thanks Polly
