Childcare space available 3/4 days from July/Sep.


Recommended Posts

I am an Ofsted registered childminder with a 3/4 day space available Mon-Thurs from July. I also have a space becoming available for September.Both spaces are due to little ones moving on to nursery and school.

I have worked in Dulwich for 11 years childminding with local families.I have a spacious house just by the park on St Aidan's rd, we use the open plan downstairs for minding and we have a lovely back garden for the children to enjoy. I was rated good with outstanding features on my inspection last year.we go out every day to groups in the local area and take advantage of the beautiful open spaces and parks and of course the lovely Hornimans. Please get in touch by pm and we can arrange a chat.

Lorna is amazing


She has the space because our son is moving on to nursery having been with her since he was 7 months old but it is now time for nursery. When we first met her our son liked to make a lot of noise. Lorna's first observation was 'oh he likes to sing' - that's so different than others who had said 'oh he likes to make noise' ... and he's been singing with her ever since.


Lorna has been nothing short of amazing. She is loving, kind, playful, observant, flexible, communicative, straightforward - everything you could want. She's all of these things for parents just as much as she is for the children. Our son has flourished under Lorna's care. He runs to her door every day and gives her a big hug when she opens the door. We can tell he feels very safe, very secure and he has some great friends.


She's flexible and accommodating - Our son wears cloth nappies - not a problem; another child (his best friend) is a vegetarian and again no problem. She's partnered with us when he was weaning and now that we are trying (and trying) potty training.


Lorna offers advice and guidance gently and when asked - but not when not.


On a day to day basis Lorna offers an excellent mix of the small scale of a childminder (giving our son one key person to whom he is very attached and feels very comfortable) with larger group and socialisation through daily morning groups with other children. They have picnics and parties and swimming and ...


I can not recommend her highly enough.

    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
    • Maybe the signor in question spotted some hot jacuzzi action and just had to stop in?
