Hi did you get any recomendations? I am also looking for a nanny or childminder for my one year old. I am jobseeking at the moment so would probably need someone from Nov/Dec. Only for Monday, Thurs afternoon and poss Friday.

I live by North Dul station. Please pass on any recomendations! and if you live nearby we could think about a nanny share although as I say i only need 1-2 days as the mother in law has agreed to do 3 days. kate

I also know of a great nanny - I would say pm me but we're going away tomorrow and won't be picking up messages for a week or so. I have posted about her before - she is a fantastic mum of 4 herself and looked after my 3 kids for over 2 years starting when my youngest was about 8 months old (we have known her though for 6 years). Her name is Anna and her number is 07588 485284. She is warm, loving and reliable - my kids all love her to bits and I have no hesitation in recommending her. She's not one of those nannies you see sitting around the cafes of ED all day long - she took my kids off to storytime at the library, singing groups, arts and crafts sessions, the Horniman, the park and did a lot of crafty stuff with them at home too. She finished with us only a few weeks ago because I am having a career break and she does work for another family but I think that may be finishing around the new year. And she loves babies!

Hi

My child minder Shelly is wonderful and because we are leaving to move to Australia in less than a month she has availability. She has looked after my 8 year old daughter since she was 5 months old and same with my 4 yr old son. I have posted recommendations for her on this site recently which has more details but basically I have worked full time and always been comforted by the fact that my children were with her. Her number is 07931 853180 and would highly recommend calling her.

All the best!
