starting from scratch N19

[newyorkernow]

Hi All, I'm a native Norf Londoner returning from almost 20 years of living in Manhattan, going to be living in N19 nr Crouch Hill station, and looking for some advice on where to get started with the following:

• babysitters that can do evenings and school pick-ups from camden to N19 for 4 and 6 yr old girls.
• housekeeper/cleaner, that can come and clean our house 2x a week and help with ironing/laundry folding
• kids leisure/activity centers (gymnastics, ballet, swimming, art, music, anything else a now neurotic, now new yorker might do for their kids).

Many many thanks in advance, and I look forward to being part of the community

Hi newyorkernow,

Talk is a bit quiet at the moment with many families away and busy with kids at home, but here are few sections of the site that might be worth having a look through. I know recommend is best, but some do have reviews.
Childcare

Cleaners

Classes and Holiday Clubs

Up to date Local What's On

Good luck with the move.

Thank you so much!

If it's not too late, there is a great local community on the streetlife website for N19. Just put in your question and lots of helpful people respond.
Good luck with the move, N19 is a great area with fantastic facilities

N19 is fab. You'll settle back in easily. Plus you are just down the road from Archway pool, which the kids will love with the waves, rapids and slides, and I'm sure they have swimming lessons. If not, Park Road pool just down the road in N8 has recently been done up and they have swimming lessons for all ages.

Hello, I hope you are settling in well, I emailed a week or so ago and just wondered if you were still looking for a cleaner? I'm not sure of you got my message as I sent it to your inbox , if so inspired be highly interested and would love to discuss it further . I look forward to hearing from you

Sorry bit of a typo as I'm using my phone . If you are still looking for a cleaner I would be highly interested
