Based smack in the middle of buzzing Brick Lane, right across from the Laden Showroom, is Heba Women's Project, a charitable organisation supporting women who want to start a business and mothers (with its creche facility).
A friend Rachel has had a hand in restarting the creche after it closed awhile ago. She's working with Anne, the women at the helm of Heba, to fill the creche's spaces (10 children max - half day sessions cost just £14!!).
The place is a godsend for weary moms who need some free time to work, would like to learn new skills & start up a business (the sewing room opposite has great sewing classes at £5 a pop) or just plain need a break.
After giving up hope of ever getting a place in the neighbourhood's good nurseries, I'm over the moon my tot has a place here. Whew!
