West Sussex mummies ?

[chocolatemummy]

Anyone in the Lancing, Shoreham, Worthing area?
I am a 30 year old working mum.Moved to Sussex in 2000 to go to uni, most people I met moved back home afterwards but I met someone and got married.I have a daughter almost two and some good friends but no one with children and you all know it changes everything. Time, money and energy to go out is hugely decreased and even if you don't want to talk babies, schools, nurseries etc its your life now and childless single friends are on a different planet-or should I say we are!
Anyone near me who is on my wavelength?
please get in touch.

I will join this thread now, I'm a registered childminder & I live in Horsham, my two dd's are aged 12 & nearly 9, & consider myself young in heart if not in age!

24th Feb would be good for me. Anyone else want to come?!

can i join please? im 24 and im a nanny.......... look after a 1 year old and a 3 year old........... moved form bristol to chichester for this job, but hard to make friends as people assume the children are mine, so need people with other children to keep me company!
i live in chichester - westergate, so am very close!

hi
i have 3 girls they are 15,14 and 10 and 2 boys 4 and 11 months.
i live in east preston which is quite near littlehampton.i moved down here 5 years ago from sidcup in kent,but have found it very hard to make friends.i've met a couple of people from the netmums website.

what diff in ages..... as long as the older ones dont mind the babies!!!

its strange moving, my b/f lives in southampton but not the same as having local friends.

my 3 girls are from my 1st marriage, i remarried and had the 2 boys , my new husband had 1 child from his 1st marriage .we wanted to have children together, i guess i wouldn't have had any more if i'd stayed with my 1st husband.
my older girls are great with the little ones.

i bet, when i was younger i would have loved little brothers or sisters, but as im adopted this wanst an option, instead i babysat, then became a nursrey nurse/nanny when i was 18!

Saffie has just started school so goes 3 mornings a week. so those days stay behind and tidy house, and give finn some him time! on the other days we go to mother and toddlers, soft play and for walks.be nice when the weather is better looking forward to go to west wittering beach and playing on the sand!

i can't wait for the nicer weather too,i find january so depressing!
jordan goes to playgroup every afternoon,he starts school full time in sept,i've just started taking andrew(11 months) to caterpillar music,it's nice for just the 2 of us to do something together.i only have to focus on him, and with a large family i think it's important that we spend quality time together even if it is 45 mins.

i know what u mean now thta saffie is at school 3 mornings a week, finn who is just one is able to ahve me time!!!

well janeyhills your just up the road from me in goring.

any of you though of going to the brigthon meet ups? we meet fairly reguarly. am thinking of trying to get one up for april whad do you think?

yep 24th feb,sorry!
Well, I started the thread about 2 months ago and I live in Lancing/Sompting. We are all over the place in West Sussex- Steyning, Lancing, Worthing, Chichester, Arundel, now Goring and East Preston
none of us have met before as we had to cancel last planned meet up because most of us had other things going on. But 24th feb should be a good one, at this rate we'll have loads of us which is great.
I finish work at 1 so will come straight from work and I guess we will need to work a way of recognising eachother because you get lots of groups of mums there. any one any ideas? putting something on the table?

My little one is a handful, she is 26 months old now and in to everything, can't sit still. Hopefuly between us we'll have a good mix of girls/boys.

also, for those who don't know I am 31. my daughter is called Estelle and she is my only child. I moved down to Brighton originally to do an MA at Brighton uni but ended up staying down here and getting married.I am from the Midlands.

24th feb

where
what time
are you bringing your small people or is this piss up?
