Hi! We are moving next week to se23 and have still not been able to find a daycare or nursery for our toddler. He goes twice a week at our current location and given the rumours I've heard online, I'm very worried we won't get a place for him in east dulwich/forest hill even in January (I've resigned myself to the fact that it is probably too late now to get a place for dec).

I'm looking for reviews and recommendations - mostly nurseries or preschools around the horniman/fairlawn area. Still not used to the hilly roads so would like one as close as possible! Even slipped once walking down honor oak road in trainers on a wet day!!

Any other ideas? I've heard of magic moments in east dulwich and a messy play group near sainsbury's forest hill, but would appreciate any information about the area. Thanks a bunch!

Also, where is the closest high st where you can shop for clothes, non-grocery stuff?

Thanks again.

Welcome to SE23! We are in Honor Oak and the two preschools that I have heard lots of good things about are Busy as Bees in St Saviours hall and Chelwood nursery school on the Brockley side of Honor Oak. Neither is right around the corner from you but may still be worth checking out! When I enquired with them a year ago for a place for my son both had spaces for some of their sessions. Also, there are lots of childminders in the area.

How about you join the SE23 Mums FB page, I am sure you will find lots of advice there!

Hi, we're also moving to HOP early next year (not far from the station) and have a 4.5 yr old and a 9 month old. We're currently looking for a nursery place for the youngest. Oak Tree is pretty oversubscribed as far as i can tell, can anyone recommend any other good nurseries or childminders in the area. Any advice is greatly appreciated! many thanks

    • It looks as though there will be 10 of us!  We are going to Love Dulwich again for a lunch and will checkout their 'normal' menu - from what we remember from the last 2 times we went = there was plenty to satisfy every one and they were happy to take party bookings.- Hubby and I have worked out that if all our daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren were  to come - there would be 20 of us!! As it is - the Essex  family branch live too far away to come over for an evening - so we will meet up in Essex at a later date.
    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
