Hi,
Where abouts in Surrey are you?
What hours would you need a day?
Would you consider live out?

Best Wishes

have you tried snap childcare agency they place nannies with families with children who have additional needs.

also try www.nannyjob.co.uk there was someone on the message boards a while ago looking for nanny job with children with special needs.

good luck with your search

I have tried snap before but they charge over £2,000 to find a nanny and when I tried to use them they came up with very poor qualified people . I have heard though they are good for Nannies

Blimey didnt realise snap charged that much - wow!!!

hope you find someone suitable, may be that you need to find one person to do the days and then another nanny who would be happy to do odd overnights on an ad-hoc basis (i do the latter but am in east midlands so no use to you)

also if you would consider a nanny with own child you may get more applicants - does your daughter like other children maybe someone with a baby/toddler?

It would be worth trying your local netmums site on the childcare section as well

Hi Annie,

Unfortunately Leatherhead is a bit far out for me and i would ideally be looking for morning half days around 3days a week. (3days at earliest start of 7.30pm and latest finish at 2.30pm)

Good Luck with your search

Kind Regards

On the APs profiles on greataupairs website they say whether or not they would consider working with, for example, lone parent families, elderly people, disabled children.

One of my DSs is disabled and he's formed lovely relationships with all but one of our APs.

Hi Annie,

Would you consider a childminder where little one came to their house instead?
