Ann is amazing, so good with my 3 year old. I was worried about my daughter going into childcare but Ann totally put me at ease, and my daughter took to her very quickly. I can go to work with a clear head knowing my daughter is well looked after.

The last time I left a review for Ann was in 2015, wow. Since then we've had another daughter who also joined the gang at Ann's or should I say, Aunty Ann. That's how our 3 girls refer to Ann because she really has become family. The care, love and learning Ann gives is fantastic. I would highly recommend Ann to any parent thinking of sending a child to her. My wife and I have been using Ann for coming up on 10 years and our 3 girls just love going there which is great for us as it helps with routine. Ann's entire family have become our family. You shouldn't think twice about using Ann's services.

Ann has been part of our family for the past 9 years. She currently has our 3 girls aged 10,7 & 3. Our girls, in fact all the children call her Aunty Ann! Her house is full of fun. All the children are like one big family. She is super organised and loves to play with the children. She takes the younger children to toddler groups every week, which really helped with their early development and preparing them for school. Ann loves her job this shines through and the children totally love her. She's fabulous!!!!
