Mother's help/part-time nanny wanted


sfm

Recommended Posts

We're a friendly family looking for a mother's help or flexible nanny to help look after our fun and good natured 3 year old and 4 month old boys, starting in August. We live in a nice house with garden near Lordship Lane/Dulwich Village within easy reach of any of the East Dulwich bus routes or North Dulwich station.


The hours we're looking for are roughly 7.30am - 9am and 3pm - 7pm Monday to Thursday (we're looking for 4 days but we could be flexible on the days of the week). It would involve dropping off and picking up our 3 year old from nursery and help with both boys/around the house from nursery pick-up time until Dad gets home from work (7pm).


Mum is on maternity leave, so will be around and looking after the children with you, at least for the first 9 months. We would like you to be able to be in sole charge of the 3 year old for short periods.


It would be a bonus if you can speak German but not essential! (We are English but are trying to bring up the children bilingually.)


Please PM me if you're interested.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
