I couldn't be happier to post a review that captures our privilege and delight at having Anna's sparkle, calm and sheer superwoman powers in our lives. Our boy, 14 months old as I write this, is an infectious little soul, happy, cheeky, animated, curious, daring, affectionate. It’s no coincidence that all these traits have evolved in delicious fashion while he’s been in Anna's care. Their bond is just gorgeous. From pumpkins, playgroups and painting, to ball pits, farm tours and Santa’s grotto, he's experienced so many fun firsts with her and his little pals. Every day she lines up a local adventure. We couldn’t be more excited and proud of the person he’s becoming because of it all.

Anna's ultra-flexible, organised, and thrives in a sort of awe-inspiring carnival of daily adventures that speak to her years of experience. She's the fuss-free, confident, reliable, and fun influence we so wanted to find for our then 6-month-old, when I entered that scary return-to-work phase after an achingly short maternity leave. I felt a connection with her instantly on that first day she invited me to meet her at her home. She's unwittingly helped me giggle, yawn and yelp through many new-mum milestones, with gentle tips and upbeat doorstep chat. That feeling of complete safety and confidence has been bliss. Catch her if you can. Thanks for everything Anna!
