Our neighbour's teenager daughter (15) is going to start babysitting for us. We have one 5 yo who is in bed by 7 and babysitting will normally start at 7.30 ... I need some guidance on how much to pay her ... Thanks ! M

At a school quiz and we have a lot of leftover food, just delivered a few hours ago from a local curry house. If anyone knows who can take this over please call me on 07960066215. Thanks m

Haven't used them but have heard of this practice in Wimbledon. http://www.wimbledonprivategpclinic.co.uk Good luck !! M

Also interested to know ...

Great thanks ! M

Does anyone know of lessons in the area? Thanks M

Sorry, this is her detail (more posts about Mel in the posts above). These photos don't do the blinds justice .. happy to send pictures of my blinds. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.261779510636112.1073741830.261770107303719&type=3 Her email is [email protected] Marike

Mel has done an amazing job with our roman blinds. She's been great to work with and offered good advice with where to get fabric etc. Marike

Please email me on [email protected] bottle of wine as a thank you. Marike

Yes absolutely - some great suggestions which I never would have thought of. So many other things to focus on; it was good to have an expert interior person involved. I also have a recommendation if you need one. M

Any recommendations for these classes? I've heard of one in Clapham and one in Penge but don't have the detail. Thanks Marike

My mum is visiting from South-Africa, and I need to get her to a doctor urgently. She has medical insurance - but I'm not sure if she can use our normal GP service? Thanks Marike

A huge thanks to everyone who helped with this survey - we had over 200 participants! The really good news for us is that the range has been accepted and we're launching later in the year with the largest supermarket group in the UK. More to come, but for now so so pleased and wanted to say thanks and share. I've been working full time for a large corporate while setting up the business, so will soon be able to work for myself with flexible timings to pick my daughter up from school etc etc. M

Signed.

Thanks, I'll pm you - we're selling on our website, but changing some the packaging. M

Thanks Dulwich parents - there's already been over 50 responses on our survey. Great to live in such an active and contributing parent community! Marike

We're a Dulwich company - pitching to be stocked by a big supermarket group and need survey participants if you have a 2-5 yo child. It should take less than 4 minutes - and will really really help my preparation. Some background: so far we're very much a small business but it is really only sustainable if we can sell larger volumes in a supermarket environment. We started out with a baby and kids range, but the baby market is very crowded and it?s the kids products which took off, and where supermarkets are seeing the opportunity (currently a lot of character type / full of the wrong chemicals products on shelf.) https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CreaturesForChildren Thanks so much !! Feel free to contact me if you need more information or have any other comments. Marike www.theworldofcreatures.com

Hi, we've never done this before and was thinking of exchanging with another family in Paris for a long weekend during the Easter holidays. Does anyone know if there are any companies which specialises in exchanges with kids? Thanks M

I'm South-African and go to CT about once a year - I haven't been to safaris in that area but have heard of the below two +/- 2 hour drive from CT. More National Park http://www.fairyglen.co.za/accommodation/ More Luxury http://www.aquilasafari.com A few other places great for kids (non safari) http://www.kleinrivercheese.co.za/contact-us.php - near Hermanus http://www.vergelegen.co.za/gallery.html - near Somerset West Playground for kids near restaurant area, and beautiful gardens, wine tasting etc. http://babylonstoren.com - Franshoek area outside Stellenbosch. Nothing specific for kids but beautiful farm - good for lunch at the Green House - and kids can play under the trees, with little stream, chickens roaming around etc. Exchange rate in your favour - enjoy ! Very jealous !

Apologies if there's already a thread doing the rounds. I know about Artastic, but looking for some activity based clubs as well. Thanks

Great, thanks. M

Hi, does anyone know where I can hire these? Or any other tips or suggestions with regards to helium balloons. Thanks, M

Thanks Chloe11. EatLessBread, we (www.theworldofcreatures) agree to use only water initially (especially first few months), but for after that I'm happy to give you one of our mini washes to try it - it's a 50 ml but should last about 3 months. M

My daughter has been there the last 3 years - let me know your specific questions. M

Thanks. Marike
