I've used Tinies through the work + Family website:

http://www.myfamilycare.co.uk/

My company has a scheme with them and that's how we get the service at work.

Tinies is registered on the website along with other nannies, childminders, nurseries etc.

when booking a nanny through this website, they charge ?18 per hour.

However this includes a commission, and I expect Tinies charges less than that if you book directly through them.

If I had to pay for it, I would probably look for a cheaper option though...

Hello,

We've got the same issue and are using Tinies, a nanny agency.

We're lucky that work is willing to pay for emergency child care though because they are not cheap.

They have an agency in SE London so all the nannies are local.

They're all experienced, CRB checked etc.

They come to our home and you may want to work from home as it can be tricky to leave your sick child alone with a stranger.

We've done it though, get the nanny in, hand over baby with some written instructions and run to work!

They're very reliable and I highly recommend them.

They request 2 hours notice only

Hello,

Sounds good, I have an 8 month old boy and my plan was to look for a French playgroup at some point.

I can come next Friday but probably without the baby! Next time hopefully I can bring him along though...

Isn't the obvious explanation for this response that residents know the inevitable impact of a neighbouring CPZ will be traffic problems on their street? In my mind this does not support the argument For but only strengthens the case Against. It seems transparent to all except James Barber that the proposed CPZ will inevitably have a negative impact on neighbouring streets, residents of which must be considered stakeholders.

Previous comments from James that residents not directly on the proposed streets should have little or no say on the matter are deeply concerning and suggest that he does not appreciate the scale of impact that a CPZ will have on the area regardless of the initial size. It is for this reason that the CPZ should not be considered as an isolated scheme for a few roads since the impact will inevitably be wider, and for this reason in turn that it should be rejected due to the clear overall majority against.

Can anyone please recommend a local company who can install fitted wardrobes?

Nothing complicated, just a straight run of cupboards with some built in shelves or rails inside.

Thanks

wifi still working in places on LL...

Phones dead on Lacon Road still. Has anyone actually had a response from BT?
