Hi, I have been meaning to write this letter of thanks for the longest time but as any new mum knows, time seems to go into a vortex when a baby arrives! However, here I am with a spare moment and so I'm finally writing the long overdue but most heartfelt thank you to Donna, who was my absolute saviour and shining light when I recently gave birth to my baby Stella 8 weeks prematurely. After calling Annerley in a bit of a panic on a particularly difficult morning soon after Stella was born, Donna arrived on my doorstep with a hug and some wonderfully reassuring words of wisdom.  She gave me lots of great advice on what to do with feeding especially as Stella was still in the neonatal unit at QMH and sat with me while I went
thru all the usual new mum anxieties which were exacerbated ten fold by the trauma of such an early birth. When Stella came home a mere 10 days later, Donna was again on hand almost immediately to help us adjust to life with a newborn and also with amazing support and advice on preemie babies. Each week I looked forward to Donna coming around and I honestly feel that if it hadn't been for her support and kindness the transition would have been much harder. The service that you provide at Annerley is one that you can't put a price on. For new mums like me without our own mums here for support and love, when someone like Donna arrives you automatically feel like your own mum is there!!
Thank you Donna from the bottom of my heart.  You helped us thru a very hard time and I'll be forever grateful for everything you did for us.
Stella is now 3 months old and growing strong and healthy.
With love and best of wishes,
