we have a 6month old son and the new nanny is just starting. we're away for only 3weeks this summer, but all of his activities (swimming, monkey music etc) have stopped!
any suggestions for things she can do with him over summer until the start of term in septmeber? we are just off the Northcote road

Exactly in the same position! Not much around for babies or under threes so would love to hear recommendations too.
I think Heartbeeps does a few sessions over the summer, totally recommend it.

Tin Pan Annie and Amandas Action Club do a few sessions over summer. Possibly Fruity Tunes too.

Fledglings on the Common - by the Chivalry Road playground - stay and play with toys, crafts etc.

Swimming/softplay at latchmere

oh pie81, what are your thoughts on latchmere? He swims at alderbrooke school in balham and seems to love it, but have heard mixed reviews re latchmere.

Hartbeeps is second only to tin pan annie, so shall have new nanny take him there lots.

I think latchmere main pool is good for an outing - my kids love the elephant slide and waves and I would imagine the shallow slope is good for babies. Changing area is newly refurbished which addresses a lot of older complaints. No idea about lessons there though.
