We are moving to East Dulwich next summer with our two children (who will be 4 and 1). At the moment we have a fantastic full time live-out nanny who we hope will move with us, but come September 2014 our eldest will be in school full time, and youngest will be in nursery at least a couple of mornings a week.


So. ...we have been thinking about the possibility of a nanny share, if our nanny decides to make the move to London with us. Ideally I guess we would be looking for a family with one younger (baby) child who needs full time care, that way the nanny would spend the majority of the time with 2 little ones and just after school hours with 3.


Even if our nanny decides not to come, I think we would still like to do a nanny share.


Does anyone have any experience of this kind of arrangement? Any advice gratefully received especially around how the logistics of finding (1) another family to share with and (2) potentially finding a nanny as well. Also I am stressing about how much time we will need to leave ourselves to sort everything out - this all needs to be in place probably by August next year but we won't be moving until June or maybe July....help!!!


Thank you so much in advance for any replies - you will be helping one very stressed out mummy!

Hi there,


We currently live in East Dulwich and I have a 3 month old baby. I am looking to return to work on February next year and will be looking for a nanny share for my daughter who will be 8 months old then. Would this fit with your plans at all?


Kind regards

Katie

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
