Hi everyone


My husband and our 1 year old recently moved to Forest Hill and are looking to meet some new local parent friends. I am a working mum but am taking a break over summer, so I'd love to have some mums to explore the area with. We are also keen to make parent friends for playdates at the weekend. We're a really adventurous family and like to be out and about, but equally happy to have a playdate/coffee date and discuss the joys & challenges of early family life!


Look forward to hearing from you.

Hello and welcome!


I've just moved to Forest Hill/Sydenham from ED and was wondering who else lives up this way. (There's an SE23 forum, but it's not as busy as this one.)


If there are quite a few of us, perhaps we could arrange some local mum drinks/a get-together with the children.

  • 7 months later...

Hi everyone


Think this thread kind of faded, but I met up with some fanastic East Dulwich mums to be today (I am pregnant with my second) and it made me think we should try a Forest Hill meet up as I'd also love to meet Forest Hill mums. I'm happy to organise one. PM or reply if interested, and I'll find us a date and venue...

Lovely to hear from so many to-be first and second time mums via pm and here. I am thinking a Saturday meet up as I work full time so can't yet meet in the week. We did one with some ED mums last Saturday and it worked really well and was lovely to meet so many mums.


Lets get the ball ralling... how about Saturday 7th Feb at 2:30. Depending how many come I can book a space at Canvas and Cream? I won't be bringing my little one, but if any mums are let me know.


Pm or respond here to let me know.

Hi! We are new to the area as well (FH, near Horniman to be precise!). I have a 2.5 yr old boy. Would love to meet up other mums/kiddos around here... Esp those interested in random coffee play dates / wine drinking sessions some evenings (mums only for the wine ones, of course!). ;-)

Sadly, I can't make it to the 7th Feb meet-up, if that's still happening. Have been meaning to try canvas n cream but have a birthday party instead to attend. Hopefully we can have another one in the near future? It's hard getting to know people via playgroups now!

Thanks! Keep us posted. :-)

Hi all


Looks like there's lots of interest in meeting, some on the 7th Feb and some later. Emilly and Mooncake can make it, so I'll book a space at Cookies on 7th, 2:30 for us, and if anyone else can join nearer the time let me know. After we meet I'll organise a second meet up too! X

Great- we can't book a table so I'll be there from 2:30... I'm not bringing my little one but I'll pm my personal details so you can contact me if needed.


For those who can't make it, the weather will be better post-Feb so will organise a Saturday playdate. Let me know if interested.

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
