"The women fell foul of new legislation set out in Labour's Childcare Act 2006 that prevents anyone from gaining a "reward" for looking after someone's children for more than two hours away from the child's home, unless they register with Ofsted and follow the normal childminder rules."

I think having them look after your child in exchange is the reward!

Agree with everything that's been said, and also did you see "They are thought to have been reported to Ofsted by a neighbour"?


It's a minor point, but what possible good could the neighbour have thought he or she was doing? It frightens me the way the increasingly stringent laws seem to be becoming interpreted so that anyone not cleared by CRB checks must almost by definition be doing wrong, and a possible child abuser or neglectful parent.

      Recommendation for a decorator in Dulwich/Peckham/Nunhead - Kam 07949 507412

      By Charlie15 · Posted

      Kam was with us last week to wallpaper a bedroom. He was a pleasure to deal with and did a fantastic job - very neat and matched the tricky pattern very well. Would certainly use again.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By TittyMaster · Posted

      What a bunch of pieholes. 2025 and you peasants have nothing to be grateful for. I have been inside the library recently and honestly the old girl is crying for a facelift, the goddamn carpet looks like it survived the world war and some. The Library is one of the oldest in Southwark and you are crying about a study place? What a bunch of bullshit. You have libraries all around you for your kids to go their studying you rotten sausage. How about be happy that the library is going to look absolutely stunning rather than be a whining bitch about it   Also, I have been told that the staffs have to work in the smaller libraries together. How do you think they feel?

      Fireworks

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Sadly, but not unreasonably, councils find it difficult to justify such expenditure on their current budgets. My family, which does like fireworks have been enjoying the displays by those still with disposable wealth by viewing them from Hilly Fields. Other hills (Dawson Heights) are available. For children who have autumn and winter birthdays, a firework display is some consolation for their birthday climate. My grandchildren, being summer babies, can enjoy garden parties and picnics. Without the need for explosions and dazzling display.
