merlotgran Brightonmumtoatoddler doesn't say she wants to leave her child with anyone, so I don't really see she's asking for a free childminder in any shape or form. It seems to me a great idea, as there may be a lot of grans on this forum who, for whatever reason, are estranged from their grandchildren and would very much like the chance to become a gran to a child and young mother who, for whatever reason, do not have the close relationship of a mum and gran/nan. Brightonmumtoatoddler I for one wish you every success in finding yourself and your daughter a surrogate gran smile moon

Sorry to sound like a miserable old so and so but you talk about 'hanging out with a fun gran'

Are you sure you're not looking for a free childminder? hmm

Hello,
I'm brand new to this and probably on the wrong page so I might post this in other places as well.
Anyhoo I'm a single mum living in brighton with my two year old daughter. This was all by choice and I work part time as a nurse. My mum has had a bit of a breakdown and isn't able to see my daughter as much as she would like and I think my daughter is missing out on hanging out with a 'fun gran'.
I also can't stand to think of someone out there missing out on hanging out with children if they can't be grandmas.
Anyway my daughter is a lovely little girl, really well behaved and fun. Let me know if you live near or in brighton and would like to meet up.
Lots of love xxx
