We live in Peckham Rye/ East Dulwich and I am looking for a housekeeper/ child care helper. I work full time and have two older Uni age children and one twelve year old girl. Our situation is a little unusual. We were a family of 5 until a couple of months ago when My wife suddenly died of Cancer. We are all ok.. tender but ok.. We are looking for someone who could help be a base for our twelve year old girl. From 0700 get her ready for school, make packed lunch, then after she has gone do the washing, housework, maybe a food shop. Then there would be the opportunity to have a few hours and some time to yourself at ours or at your home (Perfect for people studying etc) before she came back from school. Give her supper and maybe prepare something simple for when I get back after work that I can heat up... usually around 7.30pm. Able to drive with a car useful but not essential.

We could be flexible and I would be offering a set weekly rate regardless of whether some weeks less hours are worked etc .. Continuity and stability work both ways! In the holidays the hours would be more flexible and the description slightly different. I still work but with the kids at home some of the time more relaxed hours, same pay ... Liasing with Parents about play dates and maybe the odd trip with our twelve year old. We are a chilled family finding our 'new' normal .. and just need a little help with the practicalities for the foreseeable. If you think this would be of interest please message me. Starting ASAP Thank you.

      Nursery feedback - please help! 🙏🏽

      We’re happy at purple jay Herne Hill (on greendale).    In my experience and some friends, calling lots closer to start time might get you a spot! We were lucky previously and someone changed their days for us so we could have a spot.    and have been on a waitlist for more than a year somewhere else but without chasing wouldn’t have received a spot.

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By Annabel B · Posted

      Also adding a recommendation here for Andy (who I found here on this forum). He and another colleague decorated and replaced the floor in our living room (laminate replaced with LVT). He was really helpful in giving us suggestions beforehand, like what to prepare to make their job as efficient as possible, ideas of different styles for trims and features to help us make final decisions, and recommended places to source some of the materials we needed. Really happy we got them in - they were efficient and polite and we felt comfortable having them having them in our home. They finished in good time and we're so happy in the newly updated space! Thanks Andy.

      Piplings has gone downhill massively - I know several parents who have pulled their kids out in the last 18 months. I don't have firsthand experience, but lots of negative feedback from local families. The building is also up for sale so you might find the nursery closes when that sale goes through...
