Just a quick note to say we had an absolutely tremendous experience with Annette Sawatzki (www.annetzki.com). She spent a day teaching us a myriad of techniques to settle our grisly newborn and 2 years later she spent a week with us and our second child. Her help with breastfeeding was phenomenal and her top tips for managing two under 2s was invaluable. Her knowledge and advice is backed up by decades of real experience plus serious qualifications eg International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) etc. I couldn't recommend her more highly Mo

Like the many other posts, we contacted Doug after seeing the EDF recommendations. He built 3 wardrobes for us which look great. He was punctual, clean and very trustworthy (he completed the work while we were on holiday which was brilliant). He gave us some good ideas for the doors and internal layout and built exactly as requested. We have 2 small children and he just got on with the job, was easy to have around and considerate during "nap" times! Further he helped us with some additional carpentry work (skirting boards, picture rails) which looks superb. Mo

Lovely to hear more baby news, well done Harriet and Philippa. I hope those waiting are getting some serious relaxation time in!! Whatsapp is a good plan, my number is 07557 379947 Mo x

Ah, congratulations Annabelle. Names are definitely tricky, we kept trying out different names and settled on Edward, nothing like any of the others I thought we would go for!! We are still struggling with feeding and jaundice and so back at the hospital on Friday, sorry to miss you guys. Really looking forward to hearing of some more babies xx Mo, Georgie and Edward x

We recently had a number of rooms/windows/doors/skirting painted at our house by Ray Murray. We were really pleased with his work and just wanted to recommend his services. He worked for us over the course of a couple of weeks and was always punctual, friendly, tidy and did a professional job. We have a young family and he was considerate at working with them being inquisitive at what he was up to! You can contact Ray on 07927239023 Gareth & Mo Dulwich

Hi, after our cafe / park chats I can confirm that the water birth option at Kings is very good and both were available when we went on Friday. Our little man arrived safe and well although was still in the amniotic sac which was a bit of a surprise. Had a night in the postnatal ward and home late last night. Just trying to decide on some names now. Look forward to our next meet up, Mo, Georgie and ... ! Xxx

Perfect. See you at 10 tomorrow. Big congrats to Ruth and Sandra x x

Hey, sorry but I am knee deep in papers and trying to leave the office before mat leave starts tomorrow (yippee!!) so not going to make tonight. Hope you have fun Mo x x

Hi Harriet, Looking forward to Monday, thanks for organising. 10am in the Peckham cafe sounds good Mo x

Hey, my daughter will be 20 months when the new baby arrives on 5th April. Would love to meet up and 2nd March sounds great Mo x

Thanks very much for organising Ginny, really great to meet so many people! 18th works for me too and I am definitely good for EDT again, that risotto was amazing! Mo

Hey, so pleased to see so many Mums / Mums-to-be on here already!! I am due 5th April and my daughter will be 21 months. It sounds like there are a few of us with similar age toddlers so looking forward to sharing our experiences. Love to meet up. Taking the ideas from Ginster and Sayroo, what about meeting in the EDT from 7pm on Wednesday 21st January? Mo x

You might find the council will collect it for free depending on what you have. See here http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/200084/recycling_and_waste/1667/bulky_waste_collection

Thanks Sally, we are enjoying the return of post Christmas baby groups and some sunny walks in D park. Look forward to finding out when the next meet up is x

Hi, we have just moved to Dulwich and I am delighted to see this group. My daughter was born in July this year, I am not sure whether you will be meeting in Peckham on Monday? I would really love to meet up with anyone in this 'club'! We have only been here for 10 days so just starting to join some of the baby groups but loving it so far Many thanks Mo
