Hello
I have a newly diagnosed toddler and live in London. I would be keen if possible to still do a small amount of work and although we have a brilliant au pair, I am thinking of getting a nanny with diabetes experience for just a day/afternoon. Can anyone suggest someone they have used or indeed where to even start looking for such person.

Or maybe its just a T1 person on here who might want some work...
thanks Sarah
 
Hi Sarah, I seem to remember something about a network of T1 babysitters, I'll try and find out the details for you (if someone doesn't beat me to it!).
