Complaints from a neighbour about our child.

No, if your description is accurate, there's nothing they can possibly do.
BUT - you have to live next door to them, possibly for years. So next time she comes round, invite her in for a cuppa, preferably while the [STRIKE]brat[/STRIKE] child is there, discuss things rationally with her and be seen to be co-operative. She's probably lived next door to someone very quiet for ages and it might have come as a shock that normal people make noises! Try to see her side of it.
You don't have to actually do anything different, but you really don't want a neighbour war.0 -

Perhaps Biggles was never a 2 year old themselvesNever, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.0

They still have that choice. They can move to a detached property. Preferably far away from people.
....and in the Real World - where most of us would live in detached houses...but many people cant afford to (and the noisy type neighbours don't offer to cover any of the costs of doing so...:cool: - though THEY are the ones creating the problem).0 -
While she may not be able to do anything about it legally, surely it would make sense to encourage your child to play a bit more quietly or in another part of the house. It's never too early for children to learn that they need to take other people's feelings into account.0

Yes they can ...everyone is entitled to live a peacefull and quite home
I think you are confused.
Everyone has the right to peaceful enjoyment of their property...this does not mean that the property is actually peaceful, just that someone can not physically interfere with you enjoying it.
The other thing you might be thinking of is someone causing a nuisance but this would have to be regular or excessive and you will never get a Court to rule that a 2 year old playing is either of these things!0 -
Do the neighbours have a reason for needing quiet during the day? Are they shift workers, or I'll? If so it might be reasonable to try to help them if that is possible.
Otherwise they need to get used to a bit of noise during the day if the previous neighbours were very quiet.0 -
