Hiya,


I am due in a week now and would like to get a temporary cleaner asap. Does anyone know of anyone trustworthy and thorough that wants a bit of extra work after Christmas? Alternatively are there any businesses out there that offer these services on a temporary basis? I can't be the only one finding it a bit too much despite not working (sounds so lazy!!!)


There is a chance this may lead to a permanent position (if it were wanted) - My previous cleaner left about November and I didn't replace her as I couldn't justify the expense given I had stopped work by then, however, I will go back to work at some stage so if someone was really good I wouldn't be adverse to keeping them on :-)


Thanks


Clare


Edited to say I would like someone asap on a weekly basis from now until the baby is at least a few weeks old - so probably around 6 weeks. I think 3 hours a week would be the right amount of time.

I got a "temporary" cleaner just before I had my son... 3 years later and I still have a "temporary" cleaner :))


We get our cleaners through Selclene Dulwich - have had 3 in the 3 years - first one not so good but wasn't a problem at all to change to a different one. The one we have now has been with us for over 18 months and I can honestly say it's the best money I spend every week. When you've got kids it's hard enough keeping on top of keeping yourself and them clean let alone the house!


I hope you find someone suitable, sorry I can't help, ours is currently fully booked up.

    • Thank you, I will be vigilant
    • @Sue said: nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? This is the point. Adults are meant to teach their children by example. It sounds as though the adult guardian/ father in this case did not react appropriately. Had a truly sincere apology been given,  I suspect the OP would not have posted on here. It is possible the OP snapped in the heat of the moment, but they were possibly startled because they were hit from behind? If we are startled it can be instinctive to initially react with anger. I also agree that it would be highly irresponsible to let any very young child ride or walk or do anything on a busy public street without supervision- most of all to protect the child. If in this case the child was out of the adult's line of sight that is perhaps another indication that the father needs a refresh in appropriate behaviour around a child, as well as his manners.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
