Any Islington mums who can tell me about playgroup....

[becks5109]

DS is now 8 months old and I want our au pair to start taking him to some playgroups, library sessions etc. Anyone know of any good ones that I can recommend her to take him too - many thanks!

which part of islington?

we on the border of Hackney and Islington near De Beauvoir but she'll be happy to walk as far as Angel so any part of Islington really. Thanks Bundle

i live near highbury/finsbury park and there's a nice drop in group at highbury fields (called 2 o'clock club) if she could walk up/get the bus, it's only about £1 and there's indoor and outdoor play areas. the library on the other side of the fields is nice - the children's bit does have a group session though I don't know the times etc. I'm sure there are plenty of others more local to you.

also, have you tried mumsnet local for islington?
