Parents can you help?


TV company betty is developing a FACTUAL DRAMA about nannies and au pairs. We?d like to highlight some of the issues you face and it would be great to hear from you.


Hiring a nanny or an au pair can be a great solution to returning to work and ensuring your kids receive high-quality childcare. But, with prices sky-high, parents are all too often forced to cut corners and rushed into hiring the wrong person for them ? and there are times when for everyone it can go horribly wrong.


We?re keen to hear people?s stories that could be used to form our factual drama script. Your contribution would be in confidence and you would not be identified in the programme.


Whether you?re a parent, nanny or au pair, we?d like to hear about what the challenges have been for you.


If you?re interested in hearing more please contact Saskia in confidence on 0771 5111997 or [email protected]

Prioritising values can be a challenge. We all value the same things for our children, but we rank those values differently as individuals. It can be difficult to find a nanny that prioritises values in the same way you do as a parent (and even sometimes the two parents prioritise differently... arrghh!).

Thanks for your thoughts Saffron & for contributing, that's really helpful. It would be interesting to hear how other parents have negotiated talking about priorities.


If anyone has experienced a particularly challenging situation that they feel would be of interest for our factual drama research it would be great if you could email me [email protected] or call 0771 5111997 for a confidential chat.


Thanks and hope to hear from you.

    • DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?     
    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.     
    • Some of us oldies would associate Grove with the old Grove Vale School (which I went to in the 1950s)
