Hello


We are Holly and Rosie, two (relatively) new mums from either side of Peckham Rye Park, who have bonded over the tears, tantrums (largely our own) and tiredness of motherhood.


Having been slaves to baby nap regimes, which not only drove us a little insane but meant we were house bound more than we liked, we decided we quite literally had to get out more?and so the idea for Mother Culture was born.


We needed to merge our new mum identities with the ?old? us. So, in order to salvage our sanity we decided to step away from yet another parenting guide and back in to all the things that we love about London; namely its galleries and restaurants. Throwing some baby classes into the mix and other events that have sparked our interest, we thought it might be fun to document our experiences from our new-Mum perspectives in the hope that it might be in some way useful to other ladies and gents in a similar situation.


We specifically wanted to ?review? the places we have been for how mum-friendly they are. Of course these are all personal opinions, but we have rated them according to the things that have been most important to us in the last few months, namely:


1) Cost


2) Accessibility


3) Facilities


4) Feeding-friendly


5) General vibes


? and then given an overall score out of five.


We?d love to hear your thoughts on the places we?ve been too or suggestions on places to try out ? so please, do get in touch!


You can do so by following our escapades at our blog: mothercultureldn.com or on Instagram @motherculture_ldn or by emailing us at [email protected]

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
