Our family is new to East Dulwich (though we've lived in London 2 years) and looking forward to meeting new people. We're happy to meet people of all backgrounds, but I was curious if there happen to be any American expat moms out there who might want to meet? We're originally from Atlanta, GA but lived in San Francisco for 4 years before moving to London. I'm a full-time mom with a 3.5 year old and one on the way. Our daughter would also love to meet some new little friends. :)

Hey there,


I'm an American expat mom-to-be with a baby who was due to be born on the 4th of July. No idea when he'll actually arrive now, since he seems to be overdue. I have a friend who lives in Dulwich Village who has two daughters ages 2 & 4 though. They sound like they'd be perfect companions for your daughter.


Look forward to meeting you!

And another one here. April marked my 11th year in London and have been in fabulous ED for about 20 months now. I too am a working Mom with Fridays off (like Rebecca) and have an independent 16-month old daughter who loves playing in Dulwich or Peckham parks. Look forward to hearing more about an American Mommy meet-up!

Let's hear it for the American mums! I am on my 6th year in London. Originally from Fort Worth and then Los Angeles. I have a 6 month old and would love to plan a get together. We are on Maxted off of Bellenden Road. Looks like Fridays work for most. Shall I throw out a date of July 20th as a proposed date to meet up? Would the 27th work better? Which park works better for everyone? Peckham Rye cafe or Dulwich cafe? I ordered an american flag for our 4th of July party so I can be brave and put it on one of the tables to signify A MEETING OF THE AMERICAN MUMS! Huxley (6 month old) and I can do either date and park.

Sounds great to me! I was going to suggest the same, a Friday meet-up :) I vote for sooner than later, so the 20th would be my pick. And I'd be happy with either park cafe. Maybe 11am? What do others think of that time? I was thinking some moms might have to get back for kids to nap after lunch. Looking forward to meeting lots of moms and kids!

Hello American mommas,


Looking forward to seeing whomever can make it tomorrow to Peckham Rye cafe at 2. Fingers crossed the weather is not disgusting. I will bring my embarrassing american flag and drape it on my pram so we can look out for each other!

      Simple Gardens - Gardening, Landscaping and Design

      By sarajynx · Posted

      Nadia did a great job tidying up my very very overgrown yard. (See the before and after photos). I live in New Zealand and my tenants said a neighbour has been complaining about the out of control ivy. Nadia was easy to contact so over WhatsApp, managed to liaise between me and my tenants. Her quote was reasonable for the amount of work that needed doing, and the end result is great! She sent photos throughout so I could track progress. Would highly recommend her to others.

      Lexus Stolen On Melbourne Grove

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky.

      Anyone else having issues with The Gardens Surgery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks.

      Milk delivery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.
