| Posted: Saturday the 26th November 2005 at 10:26: [report]Hi all, In England, we use different terms to describe childcare services, than those used in some other countries, so first some definitions: Babysitter - Provides EVENING childcare at your own home. Only for your family. Childminder - Provides DAYTIME childcare at their home. Cares for children from multiple families at the same time. Childminders are regulated by OFSTED Nanny - Provides DAYTIME childcare at your own home. Only works for your family. Can occasionally get a Nanny Share, where you combine with another family. Nursery - Provides DAYTIME childcare at a commercial premises. Nurseries are regulated by OFSTED So to take the question itself now: Paulasol, you are not looking for a babysitter, but instead either a Childminder or Nanny depending on if you want your daughter cared for at your own home (Nanny) or at someone elses home (Childminder). To find a nanny, try searching for websites which provide NannyJob(s). You can also use agencies, who you will find listed in the YellowPages. To find a Childminder, you can start your hunt from abroad by searching ChildcareLink.gov.uk Once you are living in London, contact the local council for a list of Registered Childminders in you area who have vacancies for a 1 year old child. Finding A Babysitter: Finding babysitters can be tricky. There are some national agencies, though you may prefer a more personal touch! Best method is word-of-mouth, ask other parents. Also look on Search Engines using keyword Babysitter +London Local shops sometimes also have small classified advertising. Hope that helps anyone looking for childcare, be it daycare or evening in London area. Nick, Qualified and Experienced Nanny. | |||||||||

Babies need nurturing and the chance to develop a firm bonding with a primary carer. Preferably the mother or father. | |||||||||

| Posted: Thursday the 19th November 2009 at 08:58: [report]Hi there, have you considered hiring a nanny. Nannies are qualified, trained and CRB checked to look after children. So it is always better to leave small children with a nanny rather than a babysitter. Since you are looking for affordable and in-expensive childcare, maybe you could get into a Nanny Share.co.uk I am currently sharing a nanny with a family that lives close by and the arrangement is working out well. We are able to afford a good and experienced nanny and that give us a great peace of mind. Hope this helps. | |||||||||
