People are being urged to consider careers in childcare, playwork or early education by Suffolk Early Years Development and Childcare Partnership. The initiative is part of 'Do something you love for a living', a national advertising campaign being run by the Department for Education and Skills. Those in Suffolk who respond to the advertisements will be given advice and information from a national helpline as well as support from the Suffolk Childcare Information Service. Partnership chair Sue Thomas said, 'We welcome the new advertisements, one of which shows a young Afro-Caribbean man working as a nursery nurse. The central aim is not only to encourage a diverse range of applicants but also to recruit people who can make a real difference to the lives of children and adults in Suffolk.' The county is looking to create 7,000 new childcare places by 2004 and to recruit more nursery nurses, playworkers and childminders. For details contact the information service on 01473 581 493.

This month saw the arrival of Harry's baby brother Alfie Jack - a strange experience for Harry, but one he coped with very well. Mummy went into hospital during the night, and when Harry woke and found her gone, he seemed able to accept that she had gone to get the baby at the hospital (a phrase he had been prepared with), but wanted to be cuddled continuously nonetheless. On Mummy and Alfie's arrival home next day, Harry immediately demanded a banana, ensuring he was still going to get Mummy's attention. With banana in hand he said hello to Alfie and showed the banana to him, saying 'Look, Alfie'.
