Morning, my lovely au pair has just told me he is going off to America so I am sadly looking for a new au pair. He will be leaving us at the end of May so am looking for someone to start beginning of June ideally (unfortunately I am away the Bank holiday weekend). I am a single mum with two amazing boys (9 and 11) who go to the local schools (Bessemer and Charter). I have the boys 9 days out of every 14 so am looking for someone to get them up in the mornings (7am) on the days I have them and take Ben to school (starts at 9am) (Max goes on his own). I would also need pick ups on Monday, Tues, Thur and Fridays of the days I have them and to take them to the park or help with homework till 17.30. I work from home Tues-Thurs and go to the office Mondays and Fridays. Some flexibility needed for example on inset days or when children are sick.


During the summer holidays I would need a bit more help when I am working but am quite flexible. You would received 4 weeks paid holiday a year, ideally taken when we take ours but if not with enough notice for me to organise alternative childcare.


I would need someone to babysit 2-3 nights a week (very rarely would this be a weekend night) and to do minimal ironing (1hr a week). We have a cleaner but I would like someone to make sure the boys room is clean and tidy and clothes put away and beds changed regularly.


I have a lovely home near Dulwich hospital, the school is a 10 min walk or 5 min cycle and the station is a 7 min walk. You don't need to drive but need to have good English and a patient manner but be able to be firms with the boys. Non smoker required. You will have your own loft room complete with double bed, sofa, wifi, TV and your own shower room (unless we have guests staying which is very rare!)


I am looking for someone with previous au pair experience ideally, who is currently in the UK and can come for an interview. Salary upon request.


If you are interested or know someone please send me a message


Many thanks


Jacqui, Max and Ben

      I’m going to stick my Gregory Peck right out and say not the Tories.

      I think there's a lot in what you say. Although bi election results aren't usually indicative of GE results, I was horrified to see Reform support was so high in what had previously been a Labour stronghold, Labour and Conservative results reflecting the tired old parties they are.  It isn't our generation (sorry @Sue if I'm being presumptuous!) that will decide the outcome of elections but those in their 20s, 30s, 40s ... if they can be bothered to vote. The Greens and Reform now present a real choice instead of two centrist main parties of the last 30 years which has put people off voting. Perhaps locally I will continue to vote Labour, i really couldn't bear for the LibDems to return and we have to consider the demographic of the whole of Southwark. But come the GE I will probably vote Green.

      I agree but in the case of McAsh, that would just have left his constituents without a councillor for 3 months until the May elections. MPs switching parties is really galling. If an MP is suspended for law breaking etc., then a recall petition can be issued and, if enough of the constituents support it, a by-election is called. I think the same should apply for defectors.

      Interesting discussion point @Moovart, should they wait till the next election or should it trigger an immediate by-election so the post is not left empty ?  Your concept is logical and may have the added effect of swaps, lke the Premier league, only happening in a defined transfer window just before each election.
