I am self employed designer, living and working in Hackney..up until now I have managed to look after dd and juggle work with much help from grannies!
Daughter is now 16months and has only been looked after by immediate family...
I am in the middle of completing a project with Granny scheduled for various dates over the next 2-3 weeks..but I have just had a phone call from Grannie who is now nursing a broken wrist!
This has certainly forced the childcare issue, perhaps one that I have been avoiding, I am looking for an immediate but sensitive solution for dd, and perhaps a more long term solution providing care for 1 day, 2 half days?
Can anyone offer help or advice!
Do nannies /childminders work on a more casual basis or is it set days and times every week, I appreciate the latter probably being a much better solution for chid x
