Hey there, I?m looking after my 15 month old little girl on Monday, Wednesday and Thursdays every week...and I?m interested in finding out if there are any local dad / baby classes in the area I can take my daughter along to on those days? (I am a man obviously 😀).

Any ideas would be really helpful.

Thanks

Hi - you might try the Family section for some more responses, but there is loads out there!


I'm just back to work after mat leave (so a woman!). Try the Hoop app to find stuff near you. I don't know if there is anything dad-specific during the week, there are classes and stay and plays at the weekends, but there are dads at every class. Some suggestions are Glengall Wharf Gardens on a Monday, Besson Street stay and play on a Monday and Wednesday, Tiny Gym, swimming, nimble tots. Also the Whats On section of this Forum. Have a great time with your daughter, the area is fantastic for things to do!

Try foxglove forest school, it?s great fun. On wednesdays it?s at bell house in Dulwich village and on Thursdays in Sydenham. My husband likes taking our daughter and seems a little more dad friendly than some other classes. You could also try swimming lessons at everyone active

    • 🤣 Yes, I can't imagine they'd thank you for that. Sounds like keeping the car is probably the right thing for you.
    • That ULEZ check is not necessarily accurate, as someone pointed out above. I did it ages ago. I don't cycle. I got a bike, had a space in a bike shelter (in fact requested one on our road), had a disastrous lesson from someone who appeared to think I was about nine years old, fell off and gave up. A refugee now has my bike and someone else has my space in the shelter thing. Our tent is too big to easily take on public transport, let alone all the other stuff. If you travel light, good for you, but my backpacking days are long gone, as are my days of happily sleeping in a tent I can't stand up in! I didn't know about this zip car point to point option. Is that to anywhere in the UK? Thanks but I did all the sums when I decided to keep the car, and the convenience for me outweighed the obviously considerable annual  cost. I don't think an Uber driver would be very happy to convey things like bags of smelly compost to my allotment 🤣 Which I can take on the bus but it's somewhat embarrassing 🤣
    • If you think about the amount you spend on keeping and using a car and how infrequently you use it, you might be better just getting the occasional Uber. We often underestimate the cost of owning a car, as opposed to using a cab. There is actually a name for it in Psychology ('the taxi meter effect'). It's likely you're spending at least £1000 - £1,500 a year on keeping a car (£500 on insurance, £200 on MOT and service / repairs, £180 on VED, Then the ULEZ fee each time you use it, plus fuel, plus depreciation... maybe minimal in this case). If you put that in a separate 'pot' and used it to cover the occasional Uber, you may find your needs more than covered. 
    • Yes, En Root are excellent.
