Moving to Belleville Road Post Reply

Hello. My partner and I are moving to Belleville Road this week and would love some advice. I have a 3 year old so am urgently looking into nursery/pre-school for him (Belleville nursery might be able to help half the week and am on waiting list). Any tips on that? Also need to make some friends!! and get a doctor (new baby due in August) and get to know where it's all happening. I'd also love to do some maternity yoga but cant find a class that starts late enough (I am still working 4 days a week so can't do much before 7.30pm). Any advice welcome!!!! Thanks Ali

Hi, I can't help with all your queries but I can recommend Battersea Yoga for the pregnancy yoga, and they have classes starting as late as 8pm and also on weekends. I really found it helped a lot with the general aches and pains of pregnancy plus I met other mums who I'm still in touch with now that I have an almost 1 year old!

Also, this thread might be useful in terms of advice on finding a doctor in your area:

In terms of meeting people, there's a NappyValleyNet meet-up this month at Crumpet on Northcote Rd (so very close to you) planned for 24th May, so that should be a good opportunity.http://www.nappyvalleynet.com/viewtopic ... 106&t=9856



Congratulations on your pregnancy and welcome to the area - I'm sure you'll get lots of help finding all the stuff you're looking for!

Hello and welcome to the area. Sounds like you have lots to do! If you need full day care for your 3 year old, I would recommend Baby Room nursery. Our two children (aged 1 and 4) are at the Lavender Hill branch and are very happy there. They have a branch on Webbs Road too. Our son is due to start reception in September and I think (although I have no experience of what school is like) that the nursery is preparing him well for it.

Hope that helps and good luck with settling in.
