Hi parents.
Im looking at going back to work within the next year. My lo is now 4 and a half months old and shes my first little star.

A nanny is a very costly option for care of one child. Very rough edtimate is a cost of around £30,000 a year.
Have you considered a Childminder to whom you take your DD and is cared for along with a few other childen?

A childminder in your local area is a better option I think. Alot cheaper than a nanny.

Look on your local council website and
childcare.co.uk
babysitting.co.uk

Childminder or nursery will be far cheaper than a nanny
Don't worry, it's normal to be tearful when leaving them but it does get easier. I for one also love working
