Hi All,

First time poster here so please be gentle if I get something wrong!

 

My wife and I are looking for either a child minder or maybe home help (if that’s such a thing?). Please feel free to suggest which would be best, and if you know a person or agency to point us in the correct direction.

Our situation is that we have a 3 month old son and need some support, as we do not have a family network nearby.  This is magnified because I have to work long hours.

We initially thought we might look to get a child minder to come to us for 3-4 hours a day. On reflection my wife would like to continue ‘looking after’ our little one but we would like to get some help in the day to day running of the house, probably from around 1pm to 4pm. The type of thing we would ask for is to make a basic lunch, tidy up a little, sort out the dishwasher, sanitise pumps/bottles, help with the dishwasher and the laundry. 
 

In all honesty I would not even know where to start looking so any help here is appreciated.

 

Thanks, S.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
