Hi, My boy will be starting at the villa in a couple of weeks when he turns two (he'll be doing Weds-Fri) and I'm keen to find some other parents with kids already there or soon to start who might be interested in getting together.


Also very nervous about the settling in, sure he will be fine, just not sure about me!

Hi. Just to say don't worry too much. The Villa are very good at the settling in process - it's very child-led, i.e. as little or as much as the child needs and massive amounts of individual attention in those early days from the key worker. I've been through it twice (my son is now upstairs in the older class so though happy to meet up this may not be much use for you)- first time took 1 hour! next time 2 weeks.... Happy to answer any queries, but am sure it will all work out, and it's a lovely place.
hey, dont worry!!! our son has just started at The Villa and it is a fantastic nursery. I was very worried about settling him in as I am expecting a baby next week and was worried whether he'll settle before the baby comes, but he loves it there and doesnt want to go home. Will PM you as well. cheers

    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
