BARNET COLLEGE IN CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR FAMILIES FOR SEPTEMBER!

Most local colleges do this - so try contacting them as they have students studying for their nursery nurse diploma's who need home experience - normally a toddler, and a baby under a year.

do both need to be under a year?
what about a 2yr old and a baby?

What sort of experience do they need?

a 2yr old and baby does count, they have to do certain task for example feeding, changin nappies etc, this will be all be explained to you.
where do you live?

I did a baby placement when i was at college doing my NNEB. I went into the families home 10am-4pm 2 days a week, it was a bit like being in a mothers help position except you dont get paid. There was a baby and a 3 year old, i would just play with them while the mum could get on with housework, paperwork etc. Or we would go out together to do the food shopping/ soft play. Only thing is your not suppose to be left sole charge altho i would say this was at the parents discretion.

Does this apply in scotland too? I would be interested in how to find out more if it did.

I did my NNEB placement with twins and a toddler. And then got paid babysitting work out of it . It did, however, completely put me off the idea of becoming a nanny which is what I was going to do.

I wish they had done this in Scotland when I was doing my NNEB. I always wanted to work as a nanny & not within a nursery, but going from college to a nanny position was a HUGE culture shock at age 19!!

Katmack - I dont think Scottish colleges do family placements, but it may well be worth contacting a couple of your local colleges just to check it out!!

oooh, I'll be contacting my local college about this as I'm due in November and DD will only be 17 months.
