One of the nannies that I see at a lot of local playgroups (Vlad) posted a message this morning looking for part-time work... I've never actually used him as a nanny, but he stands out as someone who really loves what he does, and kids seem to absolutely love him - worth a try? If I was looking for a nanny I would feel very happy knowing he was looking after my children.

Your info is a little out of date: I run Simply Childcare and it was a listings magazine for 14 years but after much pressure from parents, we recently changed and are now an internet service. It is still very similar to the magazine in that it acts like a private noticeboard and is still a subscription only service. The contact details of the adverts cannot be viewed by the general public. Only subscribers are able to see them and we monitor everyone who wants to subscribe. We do not accept anonymous subscriptions or subscriptions from anyone who is not already here living in this country and there are various people too that we would not want back as subscribers! A subscription includes a free advert and if we feel it is not written very well or is confusing, we will help improve it.

I know it is quite daunting if you are starting out trying to find childcare for the first time. There are so many things to think about apart from the cost and of course it is virtually impossible to be detached and unemotional about the whole thing because it is to do with your children. The best piece of advice I can give you is don't ignore your gut instinct. It doesn't matter if someone's background ticks all the boxes and they have brilliant references - if you have not got that empathy, that feeling that she is somehow the right one, do not pursue it as almost certainly the relationship will not thrive.

    • Do you have any binoculars?  My first ever sighting of swifts was when I was lying in the park, trying out some 10x25s.  Nothing at all  within plain sight, but when I was playing around with the focus -- presumably for clouds or planes -- suddenly there they were.   I've still never heard any in real life though.  The sample I heard on the BBC website sounded fairly high frequency and not very loud, so I suppose I might miss some; but then there have been precious few reports I've seen here of any being heard.  The only one I remember is Jenny1's last year. 
    • None of that makes any sense. Rumour and vibes-based governance...   Meanwhile, thanks in part to the NIMBY tendencies of certain councillors, 23 London council areas saw 0 (zero) new housing units under construction in Q1 2024. Pitiful. About 724,000 (net) people moved to the UK in 2024, a sizeable chunk of them to London. The already high demand for housing is increasing, and the supply isn't changing at all. Rent prices (and therefore taxpayer funds paid to private landlords through Housing Benefit) are going up...and new housing units are objected to because they're "visible" and because a fear that rich foreign students will live there. 
    • Lots of hoverflies (that look like drone honeybees) about today. Also, tiny (< .5cm) bees/wasps 
    • Posting for friend. Both missing since Thursday eve. Last seen in back garden on Soames Street, their garden backs onto gardens in bellenden road, avondale rise and copleston road. Gladys went missing a month or so ago and I know she was chased by a large black and white cat and again he is back in my garden and now both my cats missing. They are both chipped and neutered. No collars.  Thank you.
