CLIENT: SLEEPBAKER
OUTLET: KIDSPOT.COM.AU
When elite nanny and sleep trainer, Anna Baker, got a call from a sleep-deprived mum, desperate to be helped that night she initially had to say no. She was then offered an extra thousand dollars if she came that same night. The one stipulation was that she couldn’t tell the husband that she was getting paid the extra three thousand dollars it would cost. When Anna lent her expert services to that Sydney family earlier this year, she was paid a jaw-dropping $2,266 per night, totalling $6,800 over three nights.
Anna says those parents - who also had another nanny during the day - were relieved to be able to finally have some decent shut-eye and happily slept through all three nights she was there. The baby had co-slept and was used to being fed evert time he woke up, so it was a big transition for everyone. Having been an elite nanny for 15 years and baby sleep trainer for eight of those to celebrities and high-flying parents, Anna is no stranger to being paid top dollar for her services.
