vangough we live near you (waves!)
cant help directly but we used simplychildcare.com (childcare listings mag, you pay about £40 to put your own ad in four issues and look at other ads from nannies etc)
if you get really stuck we got our nanny through abbeville nannies in clapham (expensive but worth it, i was due to go back within weeks and we weren't sorted and they found us our ace nanny)
there always used to be a CMs' drop in session i think at the children's centre in CP (the one behind sainsburys) so might be worth asking or putting up a note in there. i'll ask our nanny if she knows anyone.

Do you mean Barnado's centre (Heshima centre?) in CP? we've been there so can put up an Ad. I had thought about that but hadn't seen a notice board but I am sure they must have one though.
If your Nanny knows anyone, either a childminder, au pair or nanny (and in particualar a nanny-share) then we're happy to talk ! Thanks for the help.

yes i do mean the heshima. i think (not been for a while) they also used to have a special session for CMs and mindees only, forgotten what day. you could check and if they do still have it you could pop along at beginning/end of the session to catch all the CMs and see if anyone has vacancies or knows someone who does?
