Hi


I am looking for some suggestions for childcare one day a week (could possibly be two), starting in mid December or January (I might be a little early with my planning for this) when I am returning to work.


My son (10 months in December) and daughter (2.5 in December) will be going to a childminder 3 x days a week (Monday - Wednesday) and I was hoping that my mother in law would look after them on Thursdays. I plan to be at home most Fridays- but there might be the odd occasion when I need to work. Unfortunately I am not sure that my mil will be able to commit to every Thursday and therefore am looking for an alternative solution for Thursdays- possibly a nanny / nanny share / student with childcare experience etc.


In an ideal world we would develop a longer term relationship with this individual and they would help with school / nursery drop offs and pick ups as they get older.


Does anyone have any ideas? I really don't want them to go to the childminder for an additional day.


Many Thanks


Claire

      I totally agree it just seems that it a thing nowadays.  It must be due to how fireworks are sold.

      If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.

      Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
