We are looking at moving house however this won’t be for about 18monthe due to our redemption policy on our mortgage. My little girl would be 5 and not long started school. The thought of pulling her out makes me feel really bad especially as she would have started making friends by then. I’m just wondering what’s t...

My son is starting nursery in September, it’s a nursery attached to a primary school and he has to wear the full uniform. They’ve said he has to wear sensible shoes also, does any one have recommendations of sensible shoes that they have their little ones in? I’m thinking of just some all black trainers as opposed t...

Do you take your bb to day care or balance both working from home and caring for your baby?

I choose not to leave my 9 month old son with anyone at the moment, he will go to nursery when he is 1 but I prefer to have him now and like being with him, but all my family and the in laws want to 'babysit' him but I don't need them to, am I wrong? He sees extended family regularly we all spend the time together

My three year old starts school wednesday, and i'm honestly broken hearted and don't know what to do! People say i'm being overdramatic, but I'm really not.He's my best friend since he was born and it's just tearing me up!

I’m seeing so many posts on here and on social media about how bad nursery’s are and that it’s dangerous for children.

But like I have friends who have kids starting school soon and my oldest is only two but it will be here before I know it. I just don’t understand how anyone ca...

Sitters, how much you charge by hour,week, food included or not. Please let me know. And how about going about to visit family time to time. I want to see if I’m overcharging because I feel like my prices are fair.

My mother in law is going to be watching my baby when I return to work. My husband thinks we should pay her but in my culture, family watching babies is just a thing we do and shouldn’t be paid. I guess I’m ok with paying her to cover gas (the drive to my house is about 50 mins each way for her) and maybe a little e...

Hello Mamas Im a first time mama trying to put my daughter in school/daycare.. she is 1.5 turning 2 in November. I’m not sure how to go about this if I need childcare assistance or what schools in general. I am in the upper east side so I would prefer a school in UES or Harlem.

My daughter starts daycare in October when I have to return to work and I’m dreading it. I think about it all the time and just want to cry. I feel like I’m wasting the present worrying about the future so much but I can’t seem to shake it. Staying home with her is not an option financially, but God I’d give anythin...

My 11 month old starts nursery on their first birthday, early September and I haven't applied for tax free childcare + 15 hours free. Had left it as I had seen some posts where people had said they weren't given a code because it was more than a month before the child's start date? However now just seen some posts o...
