Looking for a nanny in Northern Ireland - where do I start??

[Cosmo74]

And how much should i EXPECT OT PAy - want to look for someone who will mind in their own home and non-smoker!!! Just do not know where to start - I guess not at 2am in the morning but am due toi go back to work in 6 weeks and DD is booked into crech and now thinking that is not a good idea with all the publicity about at the minute!!!

Is this not a childminder?

hi where abouts are you? i think you're looking for a childminder as well. you should call either NICMA in newtownards or your local social services. they can both give you a list of registered childminders. if you call NICMA they have a list of people with vacancies where social services will just give you a list of everyone registered. hth.

Social Services don't have the lists for childminders any more, you contact \link{http://www.childcarelink.gov.uk/index.asp\childcarelink.}

hi it's still social services though in northern ireland. we're not advanced enough for websites over here yet!! :o where abouts are you? i'm a registered cm and have some part time places at the moment.

nicm - do Social Services still do your training etc. as well?

hi yes they do the pre registration course and some training, and still carry out our yearly visits too. although NICMA do training as well. they asked about 2 years ago on my visit if they could use my details for a website but i haven't heard anything about it since. assume it was a bit like the website you linked to.
