Space Available in Nanny Share


Recommended Posts

We have recently moved out of the area, leaving behind our lovely nanny share and are looking for a local family to take our place (4or5 days a week). Our nanny, Jaki, joined our family when our daughter was a year old (now 5) and she has also taken on the care of our son (now 1). In their time with Jaki, they have both flourished into confident, caring, and well-mannered children?


The hours are 8am-6pm and a bonus is that Jaki picks the children up in the morning and drops them home each evening when the share is at another parents house, which is a massive help for working Mums and Dads. We had hosted fulltime and a family willing to host some or all of the days would be welcomed, although it's not a deal breaker as an other family in the share is currently hosting.?


Jaki has been a nanny for over 25 years and, with grown-up children and grandchildren of her own, is extremely capable and loving. Having looked after lots of children during her career, including babies as young as 6 months, she instils confidence in us parents that our children are very well cared for.?


Jaki prepares fresh meals (including soft food for weaning babes) and snacks for the children each day, which they sit to eat at the table together. They have a great routine and all have daily naps which Jaki sets up travel cots for, to make them comfortable and cosy. Each day is varied, Jaki takes them out to parks, playgrounds, local farms and soft play. They interact with other children looked after by local nannies and do crafts / play with toys at home.?


I cannot credit Jaki enough for the lovely behaviour she has instilled in our children and all the extra support she has given me as a full time parent in London (babysitting / a listening ear). The children get on so well and really look forward to being around each other, which is heart warming to see.?


Please feel free to comment below with general questions or direct message me if you would like some more info / have a chat and I can introduce you to Jaki and the other families.

    • I think insurance scams do happen but I thought there had been a crackdown on them recently. In the past insurance companies seemed to just pay out and everyone's premium goes up to cover it. My partner was a victim a few years ago, she was parking and touched a bumper of the next car. There was no mark and the other driver just waved my partner away. A month later we received a letter claiming there were four people in the other car and two of them were so badly injured they could not work. Our insurer was a rare one that actually fought the case and pretty much on the steps of the court the scammers "dropped hands" and case was closed. i thought at the time that was a good result but I later saw that my insurer had run up a £2000 legal bill and didn't get to ask for costs as there was no court case – we didn't have to pay it but again, it's this sort of thing that pushes all premiums up. And no action was taken against the other party despite them clearly being scammers who were revealed to have done this before and had effectively admitted their own statements were a pack of lies. Sorry to hijack your thread, just getting this off my chest as your post brought it all flooding back!  
    • Can't help you with the introduction to Joey, but just a random word of thanks to you @Herbie Russell Southwark News! Your name is on a lot of the Southwark News articles that get posted on here. There's no local democracy or local community without local media, so thank you for what you do! 👍   
    • Our child is in their last term at Goose Green, and after 7 wonderful years we are very sad to be leaving such a wonderful school and it’s special community. Being 2 form entry, It’s one of the smaller schools in the area and it’s also very diverse with an amazing spirit. Brilliant Art and Music departments, staff and a new library. 
    • Send me your address and I’ll attend tomorrow.
