What would you charge to watch an 8 month old for 13-14 hours a day 2-3 days a week (daily rate)?
Anyone else feel genuinely in despair about going back to work😂? Like i actually do not want to go back at all I get emotional every time I think about it, if I could stay home with my baby until she went to school I would😭 I know it’ll be fine, it’s not that I need reassurance I just want to know other people…
My LO will be 9months on the 17th of Dec. I am returning to work on the 14th of Jan, but LO will only be starting nursery mid March. Does anyone know when I should apply for the 15hours free funding….?
I'm currently in Ga... But I have thought about Nevada? Thoughts on that? Like how is it out there? How are the schools? What parts do you suggest? Or should I just stay in Ga lol
Please share your thoughts (UK mamas)🩷
Hiya I am having a meeting with my sons nursery to try and work together to help my baby settle, it’s been 10 weeks and he’s made very little progress and I’m getting many phone calls from them when I’m at work.

Hiya does anyone have any nursery recommendations for the bold/lea green/Sutton area please? Xx
I’m so excited to start my new job next week. I also won’t miss being a nanny 😂😂😂😂😂 and they are going to be left without childcare because they decided to listen to their early intervention team and daycare just isn’t going to work for him. NOT MY PROBLEM 💁🏼♀️. Which I’m low key happy about since they gave me…
Hello, my husband and I are planning on buying a house in Westchester to move with our baby boy. Do any of you guys know which towns have the best schools? Our decision will be based mainly on that. Thank you in advance!
Does anyone know how it works going from 15 free hours to 30? I can't find anything about applying for the 30 hours in my childcare account. My son is 3 in January and I'm conscious they only accept the codes at certain points in the year so want to make sure it's in place as soon as he is eligible

Does any of you has a child who goes to chestnut primary school in Croydon? How is it?
I want to send my little one to nursery once he is 2 with funded hours. Should I be looking around nursery’s now? Is there a list I need to be putting him on? Or do I do this closer to the time. Sorry if it’s a bit of a silly question, first time mum and don’t really understand how it all works x
Any mamas on here who have been thinking about going back to school ! It’s my first day going back ( well doing registration)
Did anyone go to their open day?
I’ll be moving to another city shortly after the baby is born but I won’t know exactly where until sooner to the time. Conscious of limited nursery spaces and wait lists. Has anyone had experience of applying for a space when baby is 2-3 months to start when they’re ~12 months?
Looking for some advice. My eldest starts school next September so we are in the process of looking at and applying for schools. I have 3 schools I really like, but someone said that as you have 6 choices you have to out down 6 schools or you could just be given anywhere. Is there true? There aren’t another 3 schoo...
We would like our child to start nursery at 9 months old when I return to work. The nursery we want is fully booked until Sept 2025 and we would like him to start in October 2025 so they have recommended enrolling now. Has anyone else put their name down before their due date? The form is asking for his name but...
Does anyone use an app or calendar that can combine you & your partners schedule to work out childcare days. Without being a calendar I need to write on
Ive heard its a good idea to look at nursery's /day care centres a year in advance? As they sometimes have long waiting lists? Is anyone aware of this?
