How do I find chilminders in my area?

There used to be a website you could go onto but for the life of me I cant remember it!!!

Would be looking for a minder too that would deal with my sons behaviour problems and not brush him to the side

I'm in West Lothian too . If you phone the Council I'm sure they can send you a list. What about contacting the local nurseries and playgroups? Very often they know the childminders who come in, and they might be able to recommend someone, or know of someone who has vacancies. What area are you looking for, btw?

Can you ask NP if you can pay on the night? Or send her a cheque? I am going with ProjectIcarus so we could all go in together?

Right i will have an ask around and see who has spaces. Is it a full or part time college course? Roughly how many hours are you looking for?

Off to get dressed so will be back later x

Ok,do your twins have nursery? Just so i know what to tell the cm's i speak to.

What time would you want to come home? We were thinking about sharing a taxi( my dh knows a taxi driver)so we could stay on a bit later than the last train time which i think is about 11.30pm.

Hi Jambuttie

Spoke to a couple of cm's today and both were interested. Was it Mon-Fri you needed? And how long will your course be?

If you want i can cat you with their numbers?
