You might find a nanny works out cheaper... those hours are very long, I don't know if nurseries do such long days.

R&A Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 No - just the one babyIt's more the flexibility that those hours allow. I wouldn't plan on doing those full days but i dont' want the stress of having to be back by 6pm if i run over at work.. or if i need to be in early i can be etcRuskin do 7am till 7pmthnx for the link :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9094-nurseries-help-please/#findComment-274985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuschia Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 OK.. i'd look into childminders, cheaper, better for babies and more flexible Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9094-nurseries-help-please/#findComment-274993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorraineliyanage Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 My daughter goes to Dulwich Nursery in Sainsbury's, Dog Kennel Hill, they take babies from 6 months old and are open 7 - 7 although I'm not sure whether you can leave your child there for the full 12 hours, i think 10 hours might be the limit for childcare although I could be wrong. Childminders do work out a bit cheaper usually. Dulwich Nursery is ?59 a day including food and whole milk for older babies.

prdarling Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Another vote for a childminder. It's a much more appropriate environment for a 6 month old baby and also works out cheaper than a nursery. Your baby will have 1-1 care or at most 3-1, will get to nap in a proper cot in a proper bedroom and spend the day in a home-from-home environment. Childminders can be more flexible than nurseries too. Southwark will have a list Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9094-nurseries-help-please/#findComment-275541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
