My lovely nanny is long term sick and I need some cover - Sept to Christmas. Live out, North London , too many children (4) of all ages (3-10), building works, MN... basically I need super nan - if anyone knows of anyone looking pass it on!

Oh, Justine, you are kind of abusing your power here.

Seriously, I think nannyjob is the place for you. There seem to be lots of north london live outs looking for work these days. I think you will find good response there. And this is a good time of year to be hiring, not to mention the market is in your favour. Actually, this should be easy peasy hiring for you. This is good because four kids, building works, and and sick nanny is not a recipe for a lot of extra time on your hands.

Good luck (but I dare say you won't need it).

I wonder if I could hire myself out to said meedja as an MN translater? You know, just so they don't have to make fools of themselves all the time?

It could be fun

Oh Ok so I need a "secret" password so that everyone knows it's me? (Mine could be custard creams...)

I drop Gecko into thread titles so everyone flocks to my wonderfulness my mates can tell its me

wickedwitchofwestfield · 03/07/2009 09:54

blondes - it really is! between you and MN its like having my own little temp agency - and then the lovely people I work for from here pass my details to their friends, then they pass them onto their friends and so on... plus, I've had people keep my details from positions I've applied for a while back, contact me when they are in a pickle - its fab

I'm working for twelveyeargap again on sat, hurrah! plus Catfeena and family just can't get rid of me, I'm there every week pretty much (I

Lol - I am only narky because it would have the opposite effect if I did it

(also I a not quite sure where it came from - a bit like (hugs) being un-MN these rules seem to have appeared from nowhere during recent mutations - personally I blame the change to new MN )

Well it's not in the MN netiquette and I was seeking your attention. I admit it!

Hi Blondes - I am going over to Pets now...

MamaG · 03/07/2009 09:48

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/07/2009 09:45

KingCanuteIAm · 03/07/2009 09:45

What MP said - although I suppose you do have some right to claim MN royalty....

Hmm tasty husband... do you need the nanny to be qualified? I could do with a bit of eye candy for a while

JustineMumsnet · 03/07/2009 09:42

Oh Yes. Very happy to offer husband as a perk...

I like to have someone every day but could get away with 4 days I guess (so long as you all promise not to fight ).

Seen as attention-seeking by some posters...

morningpaper · 03/07/2009 09:41

Yes you are just drawing attention to yourself and making yourself Mumsnet Royalty

BTW her husband is well tasty in case no one has mentioned it as a perk of the job - something nice to look at in the morning

Is it really? Sorry !

Justine, you do realise that it is considered bad form to put you name in a thread title?

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/07/2009 09:37

love gin makes the world go round

and makes a very happy blonde

TrillianAstrahasaJOB · 03/07/2009 09:36

That's what I thought Tinker, imagine the pressure!

wickedwitchofwestfield · 03/07/2009 09:30

I'm booked from Sept - Dec, but I'm free on Thursdays and Fridays and any school holidays in that period... I am sure that is probably no help to you but hey, I thought I'd offer!

Blondes, I'm beginning to wonder if there is enough gin love in the world for all the commission I clearly owe you..

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/07/2009 09:06

i know my dear friend wwow does temp work,and is in your area but she may be booked up for then

will go and nudge her here

do you need someone every day or can you survive say on 2/3days?

and hope you sit in your office and MN and DONT interfere

Ah yes I remember the nanny who rashly tried to tell me about the pitfalls of using dummies - I was talking (to myself) about dummies on MN before she was in secondary school I though .
