Mother's Help needed


Recommended Posts

HELP! We are looking for a mother's help for anything between 5 - 15 hours per week to support me with childcare for a newborn (due in November) and 2 year old twins as well as tidying, laundry, cooking and general cleaning.


I will be having a C section in November and between the recovery from the operation and juggling 3 children I'm basically looking for an extra pair of hands. It would be great to find someone proactive, friendly and fun loving who genuinely loves children yet is happy to muck in and take initiative on what needs doing! We would love to find someone who fits in with our family and bonds with the children. I?ll be returning to work in October 2017 and will be looking for a nanny 4 days a week and it would be great if there?s someone just starting out in childcare who this may be suitable for now and who could then roll in to the nanny position, in an ideal world!


The twins will attend nursery 8am-6pm Tuesday ? Thursday. Hours are negotiable but would ideally be

? mornings for a few hours (from 7am) Tues ? Thursday to help get the twins ready for nursery and drop off

? evenings for a few hours (from 6pm) Tues to Thursday to collect the twins and help with bath and bedtime routine

? Other hours on Mondays and Fridays completely flexible and negotiable.

? Occasional babysitting in the evenings and at weekends


Very open minded on candidates but think the role could really suit a student or somebody looking for work experience with a view to becoming a nursery worker/nanny. Happy to consider people with limited to no past childcare experience as you won't be expected to look after any of the children on your own.


Please get in touch if you?d like to hear more or if you can recommend someone.


Thanks, Kirsty - a mum who?s slowly coming to terms with the fact that we?ll soon have 3 under 3!!!


PS we live in East Dulwich (near Heber school) and our girls are lovely and hilarious but energetic!

    • David Attenborough has also done programmes on this amazing relationship.  This is from 2010 but I am sure that there were more recent programmes on the Beeb https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006ry61 Mummy trees are amazing.  
    • Have you considered PIV - positive input ventilation. We retro fitted a Soler & Palau super quiet in-line fan system. This takes cool air from the outside ans is ducted into the loft. It is really quiet and very efficient. It is controlled by a reverse thermostat ie one which shuts the system off when the temperature drops to a set level. We are very pleased with it especially as it costs a fraction of a/c and provides greater flexibility in terms of location of vents and ducting.
    • If you’re into nature or just love trees, this lovely program is worth catching up on https://www.channel5.com/show/the-secret-life-of-trees It’s one of those quietly fascinating watches that leave you thinking about the world a bit differently. I had no idea that trees are connected underground by fungal networks. They use them to share nutrients, water, and even to send signals to each other. They can recognise their kind and give more support to their “relatives” than to other trees nearby. They can also remember things like droughts or pest attacks and change how they respond in the future. No wonder so many cultures and spiritual traditions view trees as sacred. In some belief systems, cutting one down is thought to carry serious karmic consequences. When you learn about how they live, communicate, and support one another, it makes sense. The natural world is far more aware and interconnected than we tend to realise.
    • I installed an all-in-one air conditioning unit at my holiday home since I wasn’t allowed to have an external fan unit outside. It actually works just as well, was easier to fit, and although it’s slightly noisier, it’s a good solution overall. https://www.orionairsales.co.uk/all-in-one-air-conditioning-142-c.asp?srsltid=AfmBOopZSVZj1_utAO-Hr4m5M323nRZru6Zmf1YuT4KP2touJ2OLaruU
