Handwriting course

Hi, 

My son is 12 (Year 7) and he needs help improving his handwriting. He particularly needs to learn how to keep his handwriting readable when he writes fast.

Would you have any recommendation on courses/tutoring he could get to work on his handwriting skills?

Many thanks!

Re: Weekend pay for nanny

Thanks for your thoughts SW12Pops and Hercule

The 50% for sleeping hours is something we've done before and perhaps that's the right way to go.

Weekend pay for nanny

Hi,

My husband and I are going away for the weekend.

Our nanny will be looking after the children.

We leave at around 10 on the Saturday and return around 5 on the Sunday.

Any ideas on a fair amount to pay her? Her hourly rate is £11 after tax.

Thoughts greatly appreciated!

Re: How much for the teacher's end of year gift?

Thank you for all your replies. The purpose of me asking is that I want to do the right thing. I value a lot the work that teachers do, I always have, that's how I've been raised (by a teacher, by the way).

This stylist transformed my wardrobe!

Hi, I'd like to recommend a business that I found on Nappyvalleynet. Like many women after having children, I found that I had got stuck in a rut with my wardrobe.
