Is anyone else freaking out about the nursery scandal that's in the news right now? Goodness knows it's hard enough finding decent (so you'd hope) childcare without learning that what should be the most innocent of havens - a nursery - is at the centre of a (not sure I can use the word on this forum) 'ring' that messes with babies and toddlers. I'm looking to move my two children (one 2 years old and one on the way)to a nursery nearer home (Peckham Rye ish) and am now seriously worried about making the move. Our nursery may be miles away but I'm fairly certain that it's safe (as certain as I can be). And now the thought of moving to an unknown is giving me sleepless nights.

Anyone got any thoughts or words of reassurance??

Its awful, but the reason its in the news is because it is so totally unusual. Seriously the chances of it happening to you are a million to one - much more likely to get hit by a car and all that.


You could take my approach and try not to read about these things so they don't upset you?

I agree with Mellors, try not reading the sordid details and go by your gut feelings of the nursery you will be placing your children in. I think if something dreadful was happing at nursery your two year old will certainly not like going in the mornings and you, with your mother's instinct, will be able to pick up on something like that. In any case, the chances of something terrible happing are very, very slim. Hope this helps. -C

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
