Please help!!!

Hi,

I am not working at the moment and have been desperately looking for work and have finally managed to secure an interview. Trouble is, I will have to go abroad for 5/6 days and I cannot take my 3 month old baby with me. I do not have any relatives or friends I can leave him with so I'm desperately looking for a place like a day care centre who I can leave him with while I'm away.
I have thought about not going but this opportunity would allow me to secure a future for my son and I cannot give up that opportunity. Does anyone know of any places like that in the London area? Please help!!!!!


Thank you...

What about the baby's dad?

 

[Sarah242]

He's not in the country either....he won't be back until the end of August so can't rely on him to look after my little one.

Ah dunno what to suggest then, what about a live in nanny?

 

[purpledahlia]

when do you need someone? you could put an add for a live in nanny to come stay for a few days, id do it! im free from 16th aug for ten days!

 

[Sarah242]

Well I need to leave on 6/7 August...I know this sounds really stupid but where do you think I should put the add?? Local paper or is there like an internet site or something??
Thank you for your help!! And yeah if anyone is free to come and look after him at that time then great

gumtree, in the nanny section.
www.nannyjob.co.uk
and on FB there is a group called west london nannies, just search and write on their wall

Is it totally out of the question to take the baby with you? Maybe you'd feel better if he was with you and then you can just find someone to look after him during the interview. I've flown with a 4-month old baby before and had no problems.

Hope you can sort it out and good luck for the interview!
