I didn't feel silly or intimidated in the slightest..

As a family of 6, there was little sanity in our house. With our 3 youngest children running the show, very little discipline, potty issues, eating issues, sleep issues we had come to the end of our ropes. I decided it was time to make a change. I did a little research and came across Annie.

You're a great comfort to frazzled parents!

Annie...You're a wonderful, calm and confident mentor, a great comfort to frazzled parents!

I just wanted to thank you so much again for your assistance. It was and is such a comfort to know that you are there to support the parents out there desperately looking for the "instruction manual" to their children that surely must have been misplaced at bir (...)

I would recommend her to anyone!

Annie the Nanny really helped me with a couple of problems I was having with my son. The advice she gave me fixed a lot of things. He now goes to bed a lot better, eats better, and I've learned giving him more attention really helps his behavior. I would recommend her to anyone!"

Review of Annie the Nanny by Chris (Calgary)

Annie, you are a star in my books!

We have only one child whom we love dearly and have spoiled mercilessly. I love giving gifts and have given her so many things under the guise of pleasing her, when in reality it was something that was not good for her but gave ME pleasure. She is a great kid but needed some fine tuning such as learning to appreciate the littler things in life. So we (...)

Annie the Nanny Review by Teresa (Saskatchewan)

Our Skype session was very successful and easy!

My husband and I were struggling with behavioural and sleep issues we were having with our four year old son. We found out about Annie and her services over the internet. We were not able to meet Annie in person to help with our situation, so she suggested we consulted with her by Skype. We made an appointment to do our Skype session and Annie was v (...)

Why Gentle Parenting Creates More Issues than it Solves You might think that by writing an article with the title, “Gentle Parenting Disaster: Why Modern Parents Feel Burned-Out, Stressed, and Ready to Snap,” I’m indulging in hyperbole, but it’s something I’m seeing a lot and it’s on the increase.

Why We Shouldn’t Judge Parents

Why we shouldn’t judge parents: Everyone makes mistakes! Today I was reminded of exactly how judgmental people can be and why we shouldn’t judge parents. That’s a good thing, because every now and then you need to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. I tried to “nip” into our local bakery with my miniature […]

4 Parenting Styles were just the start

I often hear parents discussing their parenting style like a badge of honour, but have you ever wondered where parenting styles come from? It all started with the four parenting styles of authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and uninvolved parenting and their impact on children, which were developed in the 1960s by Diana Buamrind.
