Hi,


I wondered if anyone had any experience with a childminder/ nanny who worked very irregular hours and/ or travelled with you for work (or other reasons). My freelance work is very irregular and involves occasional travelling (mostly within Britain and Ireland) - maybe once every month or two. I would quite like to start doing a bit more now my son is 16 months but I'd really like to avoid leaving him at home if I have to spend time away. I'm probably trying to (impossibly) have the best of both worlds but it would be great to hear if anyone has managed to work out unusual arrangements with a childminder. We've been very lucky to have family help so far but looking at further options now!


By irregular hours I mean for example 1pm until 11.30pm.


any suggestions very welcome! Thanks!

Your best bet is probably to ask a nanny agency - they will see so many different types of child care arrangement requests and know which ones they tend to be able to fill and which ones not. We recently used Dulwich Childcare to find us an after-school nanny and they were fantastic.

      I had a breech birth baby in 1984 in faraday ward. I had a male midwife deliver my baby. Does anyone remember him?

      Up the reform

      By diable rouge · Posted

      As with Brexit, everyone who votes for Reform isn't a racist, but I'm confident in saying that the vast majority of racists will vote for Reform, like they did with Brexit. So, anyone who considers themselves as non-racist but is considering or will vote for Reform, needs to ask themselves why is that the case? Why do you never hear Reform promoting equality/anti-racism? Instead, Farage is now copying Trump with anti-DEI (Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion) rhetoric. It can't be any clearer where Reform stands when it comes to such issues...

      Cox's Walk new bridge damaged!

      By Sue · Posted

      It was lucky nobody was on the bridge beneath the tree when it fell. It's hard to see, but it doesn't look like a whole tree, but a branch? Or else it's a relatively thin trunk? What seems to be the point where the branch (?) joined the tree - or else the point where the whole tree broke off - (on the bottom left of the picture) looks like quite a clean break. It couldn't have been deliberate, could it? Or has someone trimmed it after it fell? It's hard to see how this could have happened accidentally. It has been a bit windy, but surely not enough to cause this. Shouldn't there have been a risk assessment when the bridge was built, to include assessing the risk of nearby trees falling?

This is the second time we have used Leon and we will be getting him back again.    Thank you cat woman for recommending Leon here.    His number is 07707 925039
