Au pairs in Sheffield

[poucinet 10]

Hi,

 

We are a host family for a friendly French au pair in South Anston. She's just arrived and would like to meet other au pairs or young people to socialise with.

 

PM if that is you and we can pass on your details

 

Thanks

Mrs L00b attends a French class just across the road in the old part of North Anston on Monday afternoons, I'll ask her to 'ping' her classmates next week. They're not au pairs or young (...don't anyone ever tell her I posted that!) but may well know people who fit the criteria

This might well be the first au pair in Anston.

In South Anston anyway!

[L00b 441]

Nope, there's been plenty more au pairs in South Anston and North Anston.

 

We've met at least 4 at various local parties and events over the years.

South is arguably the nicer part of the village, not that there's a huge difference.

I'm surprised. I can imagine that there are a few people who could afford it, but it's Yorkshire, so being able to afford something doesn't mean you go ahead and spend the money!

I think you'll find, if you ever met Anstonians, that it's far more to do with progressive parenting decisions in keeping with, more generally, sharp and broad minds, and far less to do with stereotypes

 

I should know. I married one 19 years ago.

 

EDIT - hosting an au pair is not as expensive as you might think, either.

Is that where the flutterbys are?

I think they're in N Anston..

Other side of A57. It's just outside North Anston, travelling towards Woodsetts on Woodsetts Road.

Well, it's where I'm from, my parents who still live there popped over yesterday and I'll see my mate and his brother who live in South Anston tonight or maybe tomorrow. Oh, I'm also visiting my brother and family tonight, they live in what is technically 'old anston' I think. His wife came from Anston as well, North, on the main Rd.

Is that enough anstonians that I know? I could list some more if you like

She might have gone to school with me!

Sounds expensive, but I don't have kids, so I've never investigated.

It is indeed, so you should know better than to stereotype them along Barnsleyan lines, the way you did in your earlier post

She's a few years older than me, and from what I've worked out over the years on here, I'm older than you, so unlikely. Most probably same schools though (Anston Park, Dino comp). Mrs L00b is also from the main road (Nursery Rd?) in North Anston (Main Street is in the old part, we used to rent the end house on it, by the baulk, in the late 00s just before the terraced cottages sprouted in the garden).
