Hi just thought i would let you all know about a new nursery opening on Warner street in Accrington. Its caled Dolli Dimples and is opening in September. It opens early and closes late for all those workaholics out there! It is run by a very good friend of mine and she has an excellent childcare background and she used to run Peel Park out of school club. If anyone wants any info just ask

I read about that in the paper, although I have no need for nurseries now I hope your friend is successful, sounds like she had a raw deal at PP

I read that too, but took note because of the name.. was addressed as Dolli Dimples a few times when I was little .. now the dimples are just longer creases I am afraid ..

Lovely name though .. best of luck to your friend.

Rough deal is not even half way close to the terrible time she had there, i wouldnt have lasted half the time she did at PP not without doing something i regretted. She had spent so much time and energy into building up the out of school club and after all it was her own business and they gave her her notice!! My little lad is two and a half and i wouldnt send him to PP not if the head and the board of governors can be sooooooooo nasty

When i had Ronnie we didnt start looking until we had had him which we were lucky to get a place. You can start looking now if you want and have a good look. We went to quite a few places and they were squalid. You should just be able to turn up when you like and have a look round. If you ring up and you have to book an appointment then thats when you have to get worried. Once you are happy with a nursery they should just be able to book you in for whenever you are ready the more in advance the better i suppose!

We put Siobhan s name down before she was born (although we couldn't uise her actual name as we didn't know if she was a girl or boy)

It doesn't hurt to be early, get it sorted now as you will have enough to do when she/he does arrive!
