I'm just filling out some nursery paperwork. I've tried googling this Children's database but can't find it 🤔 I don't like the idea of our date being held or shared unless with health care professionals. Has anyone had this with their nursery?
I took my boy for his first settling in session at nursery today...I thought I stayed with him but I wasn't allowed to and it absolutely floored me 😭 He on the other hand did absolutely brilliantly 😂 Feeling a bit lost and confused now. I'm so relieved he did so well but I also feel a bit redundant and unneeded 🥲…

Hi Moms! I’m a FTM looking for a nanny to start in late September. Let me know if you know anyone!
Has anyone been approved for this? Did you get 2 different codes? One for free hours and one for tax free? I applied but only seem to have a code for free hours and just wondered if I have to do something different?

Hi! I know this may seem very early to look but a lot of Mums have advised me to start! Does anyone have recommendations of Nurseries around Bedford/Biddenham/Bromham way that will accept an 11 month old? I wouldn’t need a place until September 2025 TIA!
This is a nursing program where you get visited by a nurse if you need extra support & less than 28 weeks pregnant. Today was the first visit.
Has anyone ever used Parks and Rec preschool? I'm just curious how the experience is, they seem lower resource, but the price is right. I suppose that's all of PPR in general.
If you’re returning to work, does everyone already have their daycare selected? I was so nervous in the beginning of this pregnancy due to losses, I only started thinking about it! Waitlists around me are anywhere from 8 months - 1 year. Considering a nanny share temporarily 🤔
My little girl is about to move from the 2-3 room to pre-school 😭 Want to get the nursery staff who’ve been looking after her for the past year a nice gift each but completely at a loss as to what to buy! Any good suggestions?
Hi all Currently trying to apply for the free childcare as am due to start back at work on the 1st October. Went through the whole application process and apparently I’m not eligible??
