Thanks Mrs Pavlova The problem is I am at home with a 3 yr old and a 6 month old and my husband is currently away on business so you can imagine the state the house is in. On top of that I am trying to go through our things in order to weed out what we don't need so there are bags all around that ne...
Hello Is anyone an estate agent or married to one? I am wondering what my obligations are as a tenant. We have decided not to renew our lease and are moving out at the end of July. Our landlord has decided to sell. Does he have to wait until we move out before he can show the house or are we obligat...
After two lovely years here in London my husband's company is moving us back to the US. Unfortunately, US Custons will not allow us to bring ANY foodstuffs with us. Does anyone know of a place/charity that takes food donations?
Hi We are going on holiday next week and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get extra large clear plastic bags to cover the car seats. We are going to check them in and I don't want them to get dirty and disgusting as the rest of our luggage often does. We are flying on Easy Jet and they do...
We are going to Amsterdam with our 19 month old. I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for restaurants, activities etc. Also, I can't find any information about whether or not we need a car seat in taxis. I would rather not lug ours there.
Thanks
I need some help.

I don't know what to do anymore. On top of that she has an extremely se...

I have tried orange peels as I read that they don't like the smell. We also bought one of those sonic boom sound contraptions that are ...
My husband and I call the US a lot - we use calling cards or you can use Skype.com - it has the option for video calls or regular calls and it is free!
Hello My husband and I moved from the US to the UK about six months ago - we have a 17 month old daughter. We joined a GP and my daughter and husband have both been. It is a completely different system than I am familiar with - Family doctors instead of individual - internist, pediatrician, gynacolo...
Hi All, I need your advice - my daughter has a cold and I am looking to buy a warm mist humidifier for her room (only for illnesses not for everyday use). Does anyone have any recommendations? I am thinking about either Vicks or Bionaire, but I am open. Also, I'd like to find one that is on the quie...
No Worries Cornish Mummy! She will be 2 in August so she could start in September - Thanks for the recommendation as I live quite close to the Wainwright Montessori.
Anybody have recommendations for stair gates? How are the pressure ones? Are they secure or can a child push them down? Any advice/information would be greatly appreciated.
Hi My daughter is 16 months old and I was wondering if there were any nurseries in the area that were part of the day and only 2 or 3 days of the week. I am a stay at home mom, but I think my daughter would love to have the chance to socialize with other children in a school-like atmosphere. Thanks -S
