Do feel free to report any you see. Thanks, MNHQ.

Seeking a childminder in Putney/Wandsworth Town 3 days a week asap

(24 Posts)

I'm looking for a childminder for three days a week (could be any three days) for my daughter who will be 10 months in February. Ideally someone near Putney or Wandsworth Town train station.

I was supposed to be going back to work in February but despite searching for several months I've not been able to find the right CM. I would love to hear from any CMs with vacancies, or anyone who can recommend a CM in this area.

I could go back as late as April, when my daughter will be one, so could take up a 12-months-plus vacancy if I can find one.

Any advice very gratefully received! Thanks.

Stella, would you consider a nanny? I have one I can recommend. I also know a few CM's although not quite in your area. Please email me at lilibet.reed@yahoo.co.uk

StellaBee Wed 07-Jan-09 17:48:46

Hi, thanks for replying; unfortunately a nanny is simply beyond our budget. I will email you though about the CMs

Hi Stella, I am a qualified Child minder and have 2 children of my own, one 9 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. I would only like to mind one other child and do toddler groups around the area. I was hoping to mind a child 1 year plus, but would be willing to look after a 10 month old.

I am a little out of your way, just off Priory Lane, which is off Upper Richmond Road as you come into East Sheen, so not sure if you want to travel that far. Our closest station is Barnes Rail, which is a 15 minute walk, not sure if you're walking or driving.

I charge £6.00 hour and am available from 8am to 6pm. Let me know if you're interested.

StellaBee Sat 10-Jan-09 21:03:07

Thanks sforsam but I'm afraid that's just a bit too far. I have to get into the City for work so I'd be going in the wrong direction to get to you.

But thank you for your reply

Hi StellaBee, would you be driving to drop your daughter off, or will you be going on the train? Which areas would work for you, and how far are you (realistically) willing and able to travel to drop off and collect your daughter?

StellaBee Sun 11-Jan-09 18:50:46

Hi Mummalish

I'm happy to drive a certain distance to drop her off but don't want to go too far as it will add time to my commute, which is already just under an hour.

Ideally I'm looking for someone in Putney or Wandsworth Town but could consider stretching to the Wandsworth side of Southfields, or Earlsfield.

If you've got any suggestions I'd be interested to hear them - if there's a location I haven't considered that might work then I'm very willing to look at it!

Thanks
Stella

I am trying to figure out a way to email you, never done that before on here, and cant seem to manage it. Would love to chat.

StellaBee Mon 12-Jan-09 19:51:45

I was just wondering if anybody could recommend a nanny who is not overly priced and able to look after a 4 month old baby in the Putney/Wandsworth area. I would like to return to work in mid-March and start working 4 days a week immediately

Any suggestions would be gratefully received

Thanks
Sian

Hi,

I'm looking for childcare, but not sure what I would need to pay. I have a 3 year old and an 8 month baby. I would ideally like to have someone to come to house. How much should I expect to pay hourly?? I live in Colliers wood.

NCWH Mon 20-Feb-12 21:52:45

Hello,
