House Keeper/ child care - Wanted


mpd

Recommended Posts

We live in Peckham Rye/ East Dulwich and I am looking for a housekeeper/ child care helper. I work full time and have two older Uni age children and one twelve year old girl. Our situation is a little unusual. We were a family of 5 until a couple of months ago when My wife suddenly died of Cancer. We are all ok.. tender but ok.. We are looking for someone who could help be a base for our twelve year old girl. From 0700 get her ready for school, make packed lunch, then after she has gone do the washing, housework, maybe a food shop. Then there would be the opportunity to have a few hours and some time to yourself at ours or at your home (Perfect for people studying etc) before she came back from school. Give her supper and maybe prepare something simple for when I get back after work that I can heat up... usually around 7.30pm. Able to drive with a car useful but not essential.

We could be flexible and I would be offering a set weekly rate regardless of whether some weeks less hours are worked etc .. Continuity and stability work both ways! In the holidays the hours would be more flexible and the description slightly different. I still work but with the kids at home some of the time more relaxed hours, same pay ... Liasing with Parents about play dates and maybe the odd trip with our twelve year old. We are a chilled family finding our 'new' normal .. and just need a little help with the practicalities for the foreseeable. If you think this would be of interest please message me. Starting ASAP Thank you.

    • If you are that bothered, why don't you ask the people at the mosque what the situation is, and let us all know? 🤣 I live round the corner and I hadn't even noticed an awning, let alone one "half hanging off". If you think it's a safety hazard, that's a different issue, and one they may not be aware of, in which case you should definitely let them know.
    • I guess, in a few weeks we will see if he is still a councillor or goes back to teaching 🤔 
    • What happened with the Heygate was absolutely scandalous. The lack of accountability is shocking.
    • Because the previous Libdem/Tory coalition council did so much better? ....Oh wait. Selling off the Heygate at a bargain price and reducing the number of council homes it replaced? Being in opposition is so much easier isn't it James.  The point on allowances etc is a valid one, and that is about finding the right balance between the responsibility of those cabinet roles and the role of service that should underpin all political aspirations in an ideal world. Holding down a full time job, while having to attend meetings and then deal with case work on top, is a huge ask imo. People in key roles need to have the time needed to do those roles effectively, so some renumeration makes sense. It's just a question of where the balance should be. McAsh has walked away from that, so his convictions are doing more talking than careerism arguably.  Worth pointing out that most MPs started out as party/ political activists/ campaigners on a local level. Different parties have different processes for selecting candidates, but everyone starts out at a low level.
