My little one had the best time with Anna. Anna was very accommodating and understanding when I wasn’t sure of my days and shifts and let me change my days with her, she kept my son for longer than we had planned when I was looking for nursery. She takes the kids out often, and sends updates throughout the day. Its always reassuring to see them having fun when you’re worried about leaving them to work. My son has a speech delay and I feel he come on leaps and bounds after being with Anna. He was always very happy to see Anna.

When I changed my job to shift work I found it difficult to come up with solution to organise childcare for my two kids. Anna was flexible to fit in my then nursery age child to pick him up and my school age child as my shifts are different every week. Kids were always happy and with very competitive prices and flexibility it was the best solution for us. Highly recommended.

If you are looking for safe, fun, educational environment to leave your child in Anna's services are what you are looking for. I had to go back to work when my daughter was 1 and I was struggling to find bright house with well qualified and warm person to leave your treasure with :) On the first visit I've noticed the house is bright and spotless, plenty of toys, books etc, certificates visible. The fact that we have a diary so I know what my daughter is up to during the day is great.
They are rarely home, always out and about-she is very happy and has plenty to say when I pick her up.
With confidence - I can highly recommend Anna's services to anyone!
