Hi
I grew up in India,although I've lived in London since 1992. I have a nearly 3 yr old son and am really keen that he grows up speaking Hindi, and that he is familiar with Indian culture. I do my best on my own, but most of our close family live in India, and I haven't any friends with children who speak Hindi. I would love to meet up with any other mums in SW London who would also like their kids to feel comfortable speaking Hindi/Urdu.
Thanks

Hi lightwind, this is a bit of course from what you are looking for but I was wondering if you could offer me any advice... I am currently pregnant with my first baby. I am English and the father is Indian. We aren't married neither engaged but we are together. The issues are because we are not married his family won't accept the baby so we are finding that extremely hard to deal with (more so him as he's having to keep the baby a secret from his family). I haven't and don't want to put any pressure on him, I'm trying to be supportive but as I'm not Hindu I don't understand the culture however I am more then open to it and he is aware of that. But I do want the baby to be involved in the culture so would love to talk to a mummy who could guide and advise me. I also live in SW London but unfortunately I don't have a toddler yet for your 3 year old!
