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.

      The Mansion Tax

      By Angelina · Posted

      There is nothing in the budget to promote growth, which is what we desperately need. The wealthiest pay more already, with the higher rate tax. I’m sure they can afford £7.5k but we need to encourage successful people and business to invest and stay in the country.

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By Sue · Posted

      I went to a girls' public day  school in the fifties and sixties. The first school rule was "courtesy and consideration to others are expected at all times".  There was quite a high number of Jewish girls, both in the junior and senior school. I don't recall a single incident of anti-Semitism. Is this something confined to boys' schools, or was my school unusual?

      The biggest problem in the UK is that we don't know if we want to be a European social democracy or the US when it comes to tax - and we are left with the worst parts of both. The US has a strong growth economy and incentives that has lead to high standards of living for the middle classes. Europe has high tax, but distributed fairly across different earners, and has lead to good public services and satisfaction for all. In the UK, we have an ultra-progressive tax with disproportionate burdens on high earners. But we have poor public services because that tax burden is not spread more fairly and is therefore limited. Meanwhile, high earners feel disincentivised to work and will suppress earnings to avoid tax traps.

      Why make it one property ? If own more that one property which together amount to over £2m then why should I escape this measure ? (I don't btw).
