Amazing Nanny/Babysitter Recommendation


Yuuna

Recommended Posts

Our amazing nanny is looking for more day time, as well as, evening babysitting work.


She has been with my family for 4 happy years, and she is now very much one of us! We have four children; three girls and a boy, aged from 3 to 8 years, and our nanny has helped nurture and raise them, while I've juggled running a business and a home.


My children have their days with her filled with activities; be it baking, painting, jewellery making, sewing, singing or dancing. Our nanny loves taking them out to parks and museums which the children really enjoy. She's a very good cook and is health conscious, so there's no 'snack' or 'junk food' on the menu.


She's very reliable, punctual, and can be very accomadating (e.g. starting or finishing earlier/later). She's based locally so she knows the area well.


She has been a nanny for over 8 years now, so she also has a wealth of childcare/family experience.


I cannot recommend her enough and I'm sure she'll make a lovely addition to your family.


Our nanny is available for 2/3 days a week (Monday ~ Wednesday) and for evening babysitting most nights. She can also do ad hoc full days/sick day cover and school holidays.

Hi yuuna, we are a family of four with two small children. We live on hernehill/north dulwich triangle(Sunray ave) and are very interested in getting to know a local babysitter. We would be looking for the occasional weekend/ evening baby sit and also someone to help with pick ups from a local nursery a couple of evenings a week. I am currently on maternity leave, but will need someone to care or the children when I do an occasional Kit day. If you think this is something that your nanny would be interested in , please let us know. Thanks Lucia and dan.

I can also recommend this lovely nanny! She's babysat for my two girls very often and they love her. The girls are always excited to see her, and they have such a lot of fun together. It's also been very helful recently with number 3 on the way, to have someone on the weekends who can take them out to explore the city. She's very flexible which really helps.


Unfortunately, we've had to cancel going out this weekend (flu has struck the family...) so I am sure Abi is free to babysit this week/weekend. I'm happy to provide a further reference also, so feel free to send me a pm if interested.

Hi. We are looking for a morning nanny. Roughly 2 hours a day. 7:15am to 9:15 am aprox. Involves coming to our house, getting our 1.5 year old son ready for nursery, dropping him off and then bringing the pram home. Is you nanny interested in this? It's a long-term position if she's like?


Cheers,

Hello Yuuna,

Not sure if your nanny is looking for more hours than this but we're looking for someone to collect our two children (6 and 4), Mon-Weds, 3.30-7pm. It would involve collecting from school (15 mins walk from home), helping with school work, feeding them their supper and getting them ready for bed. NB there would be some full days during school holidays.

Do let me know if she's interested. Thanks.

Hi Yuuna,


I am not sure whether you are still interested in nanny/babysitting options (seeing the response!) but we have two well behaved children (8 & 11) who used to have a routine of being picked up from school at 5.30pm and then having tea at home until one of us got home for around 7.30 / 8pm. This routine ran on Monday, Tuesday, (Wednesday sometimes) & Thursday's.

Is this something you might be interested in ? Feel free to give me a call.


Regards


Simon (07884427024)

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
