Both husband and teenage son has had them very successfully.  50+ year old Husband had his crooked teeth fixed at a private dentist in Earlsfield and son had an overbite corrected at a private orthodontist as the dentist didn't do kids.

Re: Catholic schools in Tooting

Hi there, I'm sorry no one has replied to this post.   I have 2 sons at St Boniface so can only speak for them, but i imagine St Anselms will be similar, but more stricter and you'll need to live closer. Check out the admissions policy: https://www.stboniface.wandsworth.sch.uk/Admissions/Admissions-...

Re: child to walk to school on their own?

If you are worried about them getting the phones out at the destination, we have found a great App called Life360 that allows you to set a home and school/other place, then the app uses GPS to send a notification when the child has arrived at the other end.  Hence child does not even need to get the...

Re: HELP Going Insane - 3 nappies a night?!?!?

Re: How much disruption when doing loft?

We are having ours done at the very moment in time! I was very impressed when we came back from a day out on Saturday when the builders had put down this clear sticky film onto the carpets in the hall way and stairs to protect them. And they had put some kind of plastic sheeting on the ceiling to ca...
