Hi all!


I'm due with my second baby in September 2021. I joined the Summer Babies group back in 2018 with my first, and it was a great support group to have during pregnancy and the first year. Many of us are still in touch today!


If anyone is due in the Autumn (September, October or November) and would like to join the Whatsapp group, please message on here / DM me your number and I'll set up a group for all of us.


Take care,


Bridie x

Hi Bridie & all,


I'm due with my second mid October. My first antenatal WhatsApp group (in Clapham) was a lifeline, and I'd love to replicate that this time around in East Dulwich.


Wishing you all a good pregnancy/birth experience and hope to see you around soon!


Will DM my number.

Dear all,


I hope you'll excuse my dropping into your thread. I was alerted to the forum by Helen, the Dulwich and district NCT Coordinator.


I am a psychotherapist working in the NHS and a trainee at the Institute of Psychoanalysis. Part of my clinical training involves a yearlong Parent-Infant Observation in which trainees observe a baby's development over the first year of life.


I am hoping to find a family whose baby is due this autumn, who would be willing for me to visit them, for about an hour each week, in order to observe their ordinary processes of caring for their baby.


Observing the phases of a child?s growing emotional relationship with a primary caregiver (usually their mother) is intended to help trainees like myself develop as psychotherapists. And I gather from my Institute that families, too, often gain a lot from the careful attention of an interested person, and come to appreciate the weekly visits.


If any of you are interested to hear more, or know of others who might be interested in participating, please do get in touch. My email address is [email protected]. We can then talk over the phone or set up an initial meeting. The Coordinator of the Parent-Infant Observation Seminars, Mrs Fotini Roberts, is also available to discuss any aspect of the course.


It is important to stress that confidentiality is preserved at all times as part of this teaching and learning process. No identifying information about the family will be recorded in any observation notes or records created by the trainee or otherwise made available to anyone else.


In addition to my academic and clinical qualifications as a psychotherapist working in the NHS, I have a currently valid enhanced DBS police check and Child Safeguarding training to Level 3.


Thank you so much for your time.

Hi there,

I thought it might be worth sharing that we have are looking for a new family to join our nanny share in August / Sept '22.

As you all had your babies in Sept 21 I thought it might be worth letting you know!


Details below!


Nanny share available - from August / September 2022 (Mon, tue and weds - options for Thursday / Fri sole nanny care)

We are looking for a family to join our nanny share in East Dulwich SE22. Our nanny has been with our family for four years and is very caring, fun, loving and reliable with many years of experience. Ofsted registered, first aid and nanny tax registered.

The share family child will have mostly 121 care, but also lots of fun with the others after school, weds pm and holidays. Our nanny knows the area really well - lots of playgroups, library, parks and arranges play dates.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
