Space in nanny share

Recommended Posts

We have a space for a child to join our lovely nanny share - one day a week (Fridays). They will be with two other 1 year old children - all have been looked after by our lovely nanny, Jaki, since they were 9-12 months old. Jaki has been a nanny for over 25 years, and has grown up children and grandchildren of her own. She is extremely capable and loving, having looked after lots of children during her career, including babies as young as 6 months.


Jaki prepares fresh meals (including soft food for weaning babes) and snacks for the children each day, which they sit to eat at the table together. They have a great routine and all have daily naps for which Jaki sets up travel cots to make them comfortable and cosy. Each day is varied, Jaki takes them out to parks, playgrounds, local farms and soft play. They interact with other children looked after by local nannies and do crafts / play with toys at home. The share is currently based in Peckham Rye.


The hours are 8am-6pm and Jaki picks the children up in the morning and drops them home each evening which is a massive help for working Mums, but if you would prefer to do drop off / pick up, that is fine too. The arrangement is really flexible and all of our individual requirements are considered.


From a personal perspective, I have felt thoroughly comfortable leaving my son in her care and despite the heartache of missing him when I am at work I have never felt worried that he is not being wonderfully cared for and having fun without me! Jaki has a great method for morning excursions, routines and meal times. The food she cooks is always varied and healthy. Her level of experience and maturity as a nanny is very evident. She is also very understanding and flexible with us ... the pick-ups and drop-offs, availability for babysitting and the kind approach to first-time, working parents is invaluable. Very keen not to lose her as my life wouldn't function without her!

Thanks,

Katie

Hi Katie,


Are you looking for another child to be with the nanny full time or would you consider some sharing for 2-3 days in a week?


I am looking for someone to look after my daughter (20 months old) when my parents cannot (roughly 6 days a month) Usually Thursdays & Fridays.


Also, how much is your nanny's hourly rate and how much are you looking for a second/ third parent to pay?


Thanks,


Katy

We are one of the families in this share. Jaki is such a brilliant nanny, we are so grateful to have found her - reliable, friendly and always energetic. Our son Victor has been with Jaki 2 days a week since February this year and it's brilliant to know he's being so well looked after and is so happy. They do lots of activities and are outdoors everyday (as long as the weather allows)- he eats, sleeps and plays really well and comes home mentally and physically stimulated each day. Jaki is incredibly caring and you can see that the kids all love her. We highly recommend!

Hi,


Just wanted to reiterate everything Katy and Georgia have said.


We host the share just off Bellenden Road. Our daughter is with Jaki five days a week and absolutley adores her, This has made returning to work so much easier, Jaki is so warm and loving, my daughter's face lights up whenever she sees her, She's such a happy and confident little lady, I'm in no doubt it's because of the love and attention Jaki provides.


Returning to work full time and working long hours comes with its challenges but I couldn't do it without Jaki, I'm always confident my daughter is happy and having a good time, Jaki provides lots of updates throughout the day, which is so lovely to receive,I couldn't recommend her highly enough.


If you want to have a chat,please do get in touch.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
