Au Pair in Forest Hill


dcptn

Recommended Posts

Hello! We have just had a new au pair start to work for us. I am just wondering if anybody can recommend good places for English lessons? I have seen that there are adult educational classes in English run by Lewisham and available in Brockley. Does anyone have experience of these - bearing in mind that her English is already of a pretty high standard? Also, is there a group for au pairs in Dulwich/East Dulwich/Forest Hill, as I know that she would really like to meet some local friends. Many thanks!

Hi there


I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly but I am hoping that you might be able to help me!


I live in Forest Hill also and am currently looking to find an au pair. It's the first time we have done it and I'm using au pair world and childcare.co.uk. The problem is however, that I'm find it hard to find someone suitable. Do you happen to have any tips?


Sorry for hijacking your thread...


Thanks

Hi DCPTN,


We're int eh same position with our au pair who's English is already pretty good. Our last au pair went to this place (crappy name but good lessons) http://tropicsglobalcollege.co.uk/contact_us/ on a Friday afternoon. They do a 2 hour assessment so the level is pitched right.


Let me know if she want to meet a friend! Paula is 24 and from Spain - and very lovely.


Helena. I will pm you this message too

    • Thanks for your feedback - we always appreciate hearing from members about their experience. The pool temperature at JAGS Sports Club is maintained at 29oC, in line with industry guidelines for mixed-use pools.  This temperature has been designed to balance comfort for lane swimmers and families. Air temperature is also monitored regularly to ensure a comfortable environment for swimmers, spectators and staff. The shower Temperature Mixing Valves (TMVs) were changed in December to improve consistency, and we hope this has made a noticeable difference. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please contact us directly at [email protected] or 020 8613 6500 and we'll be really happy to help.  
    • One wonders if he would have defected if he had, ahem, held on to the leadership of Southwark and whether he felt that "Labour are no longer the vehicle for social justice" during his leadership election........my how quickly things change in the thoughts of a politician 😉 I think this sums things up quite nicely: A senior Southwark Labour spokesperson hit back: “Local residents can draw their own conclusions about Cllr McAsh’s swift move from Labour leadership hopeful to the Green Party, after he didn’t get his own way. While he’s thinking about his own career, Southwark Labour are delivering for residents.” One wonders if he will stand as a Green candidate in Goose Green.
    • No doubt if he determines to stand for a ward he will enlighten us - at least his track record is one of using this site to communicate (inter alia). I would suspect that (1) his personal views on traffic will have remained consistent but that (2) his views on local democracy and proper consultation will have as well.
    • Yes, but I want to know where he stands on all this stuff now. My feeling is it won't be any different from Labour?
