Just wondering if anyone can recommend a child care service in the Remeura/Meadowbank area. I will be working T-F 8-6pm. I have a 4 and 9 year old. I don't know whether to put one in before and after school care and kindergarten, hire a nanny or find a home based care giver. What are the costs associated? Any good schools in this area.

My job starts May 1, 2007. I haven't arranged a thing!!!

Cheers

Hiring a nanny can be quite good, all my sons friends had nannies when we lived in Christchurch city who had looked after them for years and still dropped/picked them up from school, made their tea, took them to after school activities etc,etc.
I don't think they're that expensive either.
I had my youngest in a nursery called Rabbit Patch for a while and that was fantastic but quite expensive.
