Childcare in Wheathampstead / Harpenden

Hi,

I am returning to work and will be working mornings and was wondering if anyone could recommend childcare in Wheathampstead / Harpenden area. Nurseries seem to charge an arm and a leg if you want to only have a half day so am looking for a childminder / nanny.

Cheers

Louisa

Does anyone know of any good childminders in the Wheathampstead area please?

PaulaMummyKnowsBest · 11/02/2009 19:54

I would be interested too but i feel I may be too expensive if a nursery is.

How many mornings and is it permanent?

Hi,
I'm looking to return to work (part time) in September and I'm looking for childcare for my 3 1/2 yr old son and 3 month old daughter (will be 11 months old in Sept). I'm looking for childcare that will cover around 3 full days including drop off and pick up from my son's school. Ideally, I'd like them both to be looked after by the same person, preferably a fello mum.
Any ideas?
thx

Hi

I am a qualified childminder who will be moving to Wheathampstead in July. I will have part time vacancies from Aug 2010. I have previously worked as a Nanny and Teaching Assistant and have excellent references. I am also a mummy to a 3 year old little boy who is very gentle and loves the company of other children.

If anyone would like to contact me for any further information please email me at [email protected]

Many thanks
Sian

Ohhhh..... you might be very popular. There is a lack of childminders in this neck of the woods.

Where are you moving from? (extremely nosy emoticon)

PipSqueaks · 09/05/2010 21:13
