If I was wanting to put my child into daycare, how much could I expect to pay for three days per week?


This is purely speculative as I'm only 14 weeks pregnant, but wanting to do a bit of number-crunching.


The childcare would start from June 2017... so a wee while away although it seems that nursery places get snapped up quite fast?!

Mmmm yes, I wouldn't hang about with nursery waiting lists as it is a bit crazy around here. Some childminders/ childminders with assistants that operate like small nurseries are running lists too, but otherwise single-handed childminders will confirm their availability nearer to your return to work. Costs really vary - I know some people paying about ?50 a day for an excellent nursery/ childminder, and others as much as ?85. So times that by three and there you go, an indicative amount! Not very helpful I know! Two examples - I think I'm right in saying that My Favourite Nursery on Upland Road is about ?50 a day, and Piplings (opposite the Herne pub) is nearer the ?80 mark.

    • I'd forgotten about that place.  It wasn't a market as such, it was just run by one  couple. They did have some quite interesting things. I still have a mirror I got from there, which had been  put inside an old painted  shuttered window frame from somewhere in India. Mumbai I think. There also used to be occasional indoor  markets in the church hall where the cinema now is, next to where the Irish shop used to be. But if memory serves they were usually either jumble sales (do they still exist?) or craft sales before Christmas. There have also been occasional indoor markets at the church hall in Dulwich Village and the church hall at the church in Barry Road up by the Plough. There never seemed to be many people buying things at them. But it does all depend on what is being sold, whether it appeals to the local demographic,  where the market is located and how it is publicised. And, obviously,  whether it is profitable for the traders.

    • "I also remember when we first moved here a small indoor market on the corner of North X road and Felbrigg rd that had bric a brac and bits of furniture..That one had some good stuff."   I remember that little bric-a-brac, at the back of the solicitors' place. Still got a block type panel from there. The old solicitors on the corner would could be a good venue for a few indoor stalls
