AMAZING child minder available 3/4 days pw from End July


Recommended Posts

Our son is moving on from his childminder Lorna (sob!). He will have been with her since he was 7 months old but it is now time for nursery.


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 could not recommend her highly enough. Do get in touch if you would like to know more or look up Loni on the forum

    • Unless you are watching it 24x7 then its hard to qualify that its not being used. Unless you are a business overlooking it of course. Personally I am reassured we still have phone boxes as they provide a valuable emergency use. If you are mugged for you phone, you can call 999 from them, if your house or business is on fire and you run out without a phone you can dial 999 from them. Some people don't have a mobile so its potentially reassuring for them knowing they can call someone if they feel unwell whilst out.  Just because some people don't see value in an object, doesn't mean others don't.
    • Hardly a non-story @malumbu still one of the lead stories on the BBC.....you clearly don't understand when to serve humble pie! 😉  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgk40l8jm7o   Absolutely. It's a disaster. And for this government, who were happy to tell us they had 14 years to prepare to lead, it has been one self-inflicted disaster after another since they took over. To be honest the signs were there when they were in opposition but I think we all gave them the benefit of the doubt as they weren't the Tories and now they have the reigns the additional scrutiny that brings is tripping them up.    
    • I don't think I've ever seen it used other than for gluing advertising on it. It's definitely not a priority but these things typically get ignored and become part of the furniture (so to speak).  There is a beautiful old red box near Upland Rd. I miss old red boxes... 😞 Anyway I'll have a dig around and see if anything can be done. 
    • £30-40 for M&S Christmas food for two seems very low! And only £60 for food and drink for 8-10 people?  We have had M&S food at Christmas in the past, and it came to a lot more than that. I suppose it depends exactly what you are buying. We left it late to book a Christmas Day meal out last year, so there weren't many options left.  The Cherry Tree menu looked very nice. That was our first mistake. We also overlooked the fact that it was a Young's pub, with all that implies about the food. That was our second mistake. We don't have shedloads of money. We  took the view that we deserved a nice meal  out after working bloody hard all year. So it was doubly disappointing to basically waste a lot of money which could have been very much better  spent elsewhere.
