I have just had my second child by C-section and I have another boy who has just turned 2. My husband will be returning to work next Friday for 2 weeks (unexpectedly as our son was early, and we had hoped that paternity leave and summer holidays would merge!)

So I am considering getting some help for these 2 weeks - I am not 100% sure exactly what I need, but taking my son to nursery 2 mornings a week, lifting him when required (eg for lunchtime naps) are among the things that spring to mind, as well as help with the new baby and help entertaining the toddler eg when feeding the small one.

Would welcome any input or suggestions as to whether I need a temp nanny, a post natal doula or what - and any specific recommendations also very welcome. It's very short notice I know, so I guess an agency may be the only option (and hence pricey..)

Thanks.

    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.  
    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
