I am struggling to find an affordable childcare solution. I will be moving to Chiswick with my baby in July. I don't have family in London and I don't know any mums in the Chiswick area.
I want/need to go back to full-time work in mid-August when my baby will be 8 1/2 months, but all the nurseries I have contacted have very high fees (£1175 a month at Buttercups being the lowest I've found)- that is nearly my whole salary!
Anyone know of other more affordable options: cheaper nurseries nearby, nanny sharing, childminders, or childcare sharing among other mums??? Many thanks
