Hi, I am looking for recommendations for a face painter for my daughter?s party on 14 January. Please let me know if you know someone. Cheers!

Our German au pair has also just started and would love to join a meet-up. Please PM me too. Thanks!

We love F&B colours and finishes and have it all over the house. `We use modern emulsion in high traffic areas as it's washable.

I am pretty sure that Lewisham Community Sports offer that week. They usually rent out space at Prendergast Hilly Fields. They have different activities, bouncy castle, xbox, swimming, park, i believe crafts as well. I wouldn't say they are the best provider out there but I think they are one of the few providers for that particular week. I would give them a ring to enquire.

Herne Hill is not really ideal for getting to Canary Wharf, neither is ED. Commutingwise you would be better off on the Overground.

Never heard of such a thing. My daughter's nursery always supports her going to the loo and she is never dirty. Where did you hear this? Also didn't happen when my son went to nursery (different one).

We used harradines to move locally and were very happy

Biff in Dulwich Village have a good selection of school shoes.

Upstate New York is beautiful. We had a great time at the Finger lakes.

Went to a party there once and thought it was brilliant. It's great to have the enclosed garden that it can open up to. Also great to be next to the amazing playground.

There is a practice with German doctors including s paediatrician in Richmond. Their website http://aerztehauslondon.co.uk/Doctors-and-Staff.html only seems to be in German though. I haven't been because I am usually ok with our GP practice and not really keen on the journey but friends of mine have been and recommended them.

Hi, just trying to put together a list of local colleges to look at for our au pair to attend. Not necessarily looking for English language courses but also general interest courses. Can people recommend somewhere? We are in SE23 and ideally the au pair should be able to reach the college by bus. I managed to find colleges online but I am struggling to work out fees and timings. Would be useful to know where others go. Many thanks

We went to belair house and they gave us a private room upstairs. I was able to put in my own flower decorations and we used a cloakroom for my son's nap. Can recommend. This was over four years ago though.

Thank you. Will check it out!

We still have a week left in August that we need to find childcare for my 5 year old son. He is already down for Supercamps for one week of the summer holidays but I just wanted to find out which holiday clubs in the area other families have chosen. Can you recommend something? Has anyone already done supercamps at St Dunstans? Did your child enjoy it? We might just sign him up for another week but it would be good to see if there are any other interesting options. Cheers
