Hellooooooooooo! Are you out there???

My husband is joining me soon and I was wondering on his behalf, (he's at work, not incapable of asking himself!!) whether there are any male childminders in the area. Maybe a secret club!!

If not why not .

Would be great for him to have the support of a network like I have had .

nannynick is that way i think

But I'm not a childminder.
There are a few male childminders in Sunninghill/dale area. You could probably use the childcare information directory to find their e-mail addresses. Or FIS might even be able to tell you, may be worth asking.

The two I can think of are listed:
Alan is on this www.eliteminders.co.uk/enqcont.asp Website
Guy E-mail is on the FSD record.

A search of the online records does not indicate any others, though the online system may not be showing everyone (current record count 164).

Alan's e-mail on here

My DH is near J11 M4, but I think he likes to hang round with all the ladies .

cupcakeandcoffee · 22/07/2010 14:09

Thank you all for your messages.

Especially you nannynick. My DH was really inspired that there are other male carers out there! I am guessing by your nickname that you are a nanny! Are you in the RBWM? Interested in coffee mornings with another man and a couple of little ones?

Lol HSMM, He too will be more than comfortable with the ladies as he still goes for nights out occassionally with his female friends but It would be nice for him to have some blokes to talk to about the male perspective.

Any more out there? or even some stay at home dads who are sick of staying at home and would like someone to get down to the park with?

Yes I'm a nanny... near Ascot / Windsor - though I'm actually working in a village which is in Runnymede council area.

Hi everyone!

I'm Cupcakeandcoffee's husband - thanks for everyone's messages; nice to know there are other chappies out there!

Nannynick - thanks for the links; you don't sound very far from where we are.

Would love to build up a local network of male childminders, nannies & SAHDs alike, in addition to the all of the lovely Mums & female childminders that we already know .

Looking forward to my new career - I know it's not all coffee mornings & days in the park, but it sure beats the rat-race!

several male minders registered on www.childmindingforum.co.uk too as either a hubby and wife team or as sole providers
