Babysitting in park while you exercise


Recommended Posts

HI All,


I am an artist and theatre maker and, like many the grand part of my work disappeared overnight at the end of March. Part of my work as a theatre practitioner is working with kids and young people. Full disclosure, I have an Enhanced DBS, but am not a certified teacher or assistant.


As social distancing continues but lockdown eases I was wanting to float an idea. I used to look after kids for Mums and Dads who worked out in the park, with a personal trainer, in Australia. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in this idea? At this stage I would be offering to look after children while you exercise independently. I would be available in Dulwich Park, Goose Green or the Rye (or another outdoor space/park nearby). I envisage it as hourly blocks at 10p/h. If you and a friend would like to share the expense I would happily look after 3 kids for the same price.


At this stage it would be informal but if more people are interested I would be happy to explore the idea of looking into pairing up with a personal trainer and/or having structured activities for kids.


If you are interested in having me babysit please get in contact either here or [email protected]

Feel free to comment if you might be interested but would prefer a different format.


Cheers

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
