I wanted to post a recommendation for Dulwich Childcare and Paula, as she was a big help to me with Childcare when my second child was born early. Not having any family in the UK, I was quite concerned as to what I would do should such a situation arise. I rang Dulwich Childcare and spoke to Paula in early February, and she put together an emergency Childcare plan for my toddler, that covered all possible Childcare needs (weekends, middle of the night etc...). I then had the opportunity to meet my emergency nanny, and have her look after my son. Lo and behold, my second child was born 24 hours before my mum arrived earlier this month, and the Childcare plan worked brilliantly. Our emergency nanny showed up very early in the morning, my son was happy to be left with her, and my husband and I were able to go into hospital without concern for the well being of our toddler. From being very stressed about what I would do should labour start early, to having it happen, Paula was a huge help, and I can't recommend her or her agency highly enough.

Another recommendation for Dulwich Childcare (Paula Forbes). We used a babysitter through this agency last night and it was the first time we've ever used an agency - usually we rely on my parents. The babysitter was superb and our 2 year old daughter took to her immediately. It was a pleasure to deal with Paula and we'll definitely contact her again for any future childcare needs.

I just wanted to post a recommendation for the Dulwich Childcare Agency run by Paula Forbes.

I am a freelance TV producer and was offered a job at short notice ? I had to get childcare in place very quickly.

After 3 years as a stay at home mum I was nervous about returning and really worried about having someone look after my children! I had not really used childcare before.

I contacted Paula and immediately was struck by her calm and kind manner. She understood my position and my specific childcare needs.

Within a day Paula had 3 potential nannies for me to talk to. Erin was absolutely wonderful- very kind and engaged with the children immediately. The kids loved her and I was able to focus on work without worrying. I would not hesitate to contact Dulwich Childcare again.

Thank you for your recommendations, it is great to hear back from our valued families!


I thought it would be wise to post holiday dates when Dulwich Childcare is closed in August. No doubt I will being given the run around by my two little girls during this time!


We are closed from close of play **Friday 8th August and back again on Monday 1st September** so please get in touch over the coming weeks to book any childcare during this time!


Many thanks,


Paula

Hi everyone, just wanted to echo the recommendations - Paula is a marvel! I got in touch yesterday evening when my babysitter for tonight fell through, she has arranged a carer already! I'm very grateful and amazed at the speed of her service. All the carers we have had through Dulwich Childcare have been wonderful and I'm sure tonight's will be no exception.


Cheers

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
