Established ED NANNY SHARE looking for families


Vim

Recommended Posts

We have a brilliant nanny share which we are looking for a new family / families to join.


One little boy will be leaving in Feb and my daughter (20 months) will be reducing her days, so there are lots of options available if you're looking for full time or 2 / 3 days etc.


We are based in East Dulwich / Peckham Rye. The hours are 8am-6pm and Jaki, our amazing nanny, picks the children up each morning and drops them home each evening; an absolute godsend for working parents, but if you?d prefer to do drop off / pick up, that?s not a problem.


The arrangement is really flexible and all of our individual requirements are considered.


Jaki has been a nanny for over 30 years, and having grown-up children and grandchildren of her own she is extremely capable and loving ? our daughter has been with her since she was 11 months and adores her ? she lights up when she sees her every morning, which as a working mum makes juggling the balance of work and motherhood so much easier.


Jaki has looked after lots of children during her career, including babies as young as 6 months; she instils confidence in us as parents and is a great support.


Jaki prepares fresh meals (including soft food for weaning babies) and snacks for the children each day, which they sit to eat at the table together.


They have a great routine and all have regular naps for which Jaki sets up travel cots to ensure they?re comfortable and cosy. Each day is varied, Jaki takes them out to parks, playgrounds, local farms, rhyme time etc. They interact with other children looked after by local nannies and do crafts/ play with toys at home ? they had a great summer, spending most of it playing in the paddling pool. Jaki keeps us up to date with pictures throughout the day.


Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or for more information.


Best,

Vim

My son Victor is reducing to one day per week in the above wonderful nanny share and we are looking for part-time and full-time people to join. Shar & Jaki are amazing- between them they have a huge wealth of experience and are warm, down to earth and my son comes back beaming and exhausted at the end of the day. They do activities daily like visiting Horniman museum, the city farm, playgrounds and local soft play and sing/rhyme. In the summer, hanging out in the paddling pool cools them all down! All the kids love each other and I have always felt 100% confident about leaving Victor in their care. He chats happily about them when we are back at home!

Victor began with Jaki (for 1 year) and is now with Shar (Jaki?s daughter)- however they very much work as a team.

They eat fresh meals (including soft food for weaning babies) and snacks for the children each day, which they sit to eat at the table together. Victor?s manners are impeccable!

They have a great routine and all have regular naps in travel cots. Jaki & Shar are very responsive to individual routines and have always worked with me to cater the day to what works for us.

The share is based in East Dulwich / Peckham Rye. Shar picks Victor up at 7.30am and drops him off at 6pm which helps a lot as we live in Brockley which is a bit further out.

Please do get in touch for further info.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068. 
    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
