I asked Maria to help my parents looking after my children 2 & 4 whilst I was away for 4 nights abroad. It has been the first time they were away for that length of time without either myself or my partner around and as my parents are in their mid 70's, it was crucial that they had some help. Maria was willing to go above and beyond what was expected and on the first evening where my daughter just did not want to settle, she was able to advise my mum that it was OK for my daughter to self settle. My parents wouldn't have been able to have gotten through the time without Maria. When we are back in the country, we shall reach out to Maria again.
