Hi. We are considering Childcare options for when I go back to work after no2. I have a three year old also. The cost of nursery for two is eye watering, so I'm wondering if a live in nanny is comparable cost-wise. Does anyone have any experiences of a live in nanny? If so, how did you find it? Re costs, is it similar to a nanny share or much more? Our situation is complicated by the fact that my son may need surgery (possibly two) so I might need someone at home with him while he recovers from it (I would be there for a few weeks but wouldn't want him with other kids until he is well and truly healed). Any advice would be gratefully received!

Dear Shaunag and Norfolkvillas


Would you mind Pm me any information you have on live-in nannies as we are also considering this as an option as I plan to return to full time work when my son is 6 or 7 months old?


Also has anyone come across live-in options where the nanny only lives with you Monday to Friday ie so you have the house to yourselves at weekends?


Thanks in advance

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
