What parents say

A meaningful human and educational encounter

Annabelle is a deeply caring, gentle, and attentive person, both with children and their parents. What particularly stood out to us in her support was her empathy, her respect for each child's individual pace, and her ability to create a genuine atmosphere of trust and confidence.

Communication with her has always been transparent, and her availability has been remarkable. We have always felt listened to, supported, and fully involved in our children's educational journey.

Our children had been home-educated for several years and were very apprehensive about returning to the classroom. Annabelle welcomed them with great sensitivity, reassured them, and supported each of them individually through tailored tools and strategies suited to their needs.

Our little boy, Tinaël, had a lot of self-doubt. Thanks to her support, he regained confidence in himself and in the teaching staff. Today, both of them are attending school in France in a mainstream setting, and their integration has been remarkably smooth and effortless, which still amazes us.

Her support provided them with valuable tools to develop their self-confidence and adaptability. Watching our children flourish week after week, and run to school every morning, has been the greatest proof of the quality of her work

Annabelle does not play a role at school: she is exactly the same person there as she is in life. And that is what makes all the difference. The well-being of the children is her priority, and this is deeply felt.

We keep from this parent–professional relationship a great deal of emotion… and also a few regrets that it has come to an end. We wish every parent the chance to experience something as meaningful as ours.

To those considering entrusting their child to her: do not hesitate. With Annabelle, kindness never excludes high standards or hard work. She will undoubtedly remain one of the most meaningful human encounters we have had in Mauritius.

A school where every child finds their place

When we made the decision to change our daughter’s school, we were looking for much more than just an educational institution. We were looking for a place where she could regain her confidence, feel understood, encouraged, and valued.

The meeting with Annabelle was a turning point.

From the very first weeks, she was able to see our daughter for who she truly is: her strengths, her challenges, her needs, and her sensitivities. Where others sometimes saw only the obstacles, Annabelle saw her potential.

Thanks to her kindness, active listening, and deeply human approach, our daughter has rediscovered the joy of learning, gained greater self-confidence, and found a true sense of belonging. She feels heard, encouraged, and supported every single day.

What touches me most about Annabelle is that she always puts the child at the center of her priorities. Her goal is not simply to teach, but to enable every child to grow, thrive, and believe in themselves.

As a parent, I also appreciate her availability and the quality of communication she maintains with families. We feel heard, involved, and supported.
In a world where so many children can sometimes lose self-confidence or struggle to find their place, meeting an educator like Annabelle is a true blessing.

I wish this new adventure with the Jeanne Barret school every success from the bottom of my heart. The children who are lucky enough to grow up there will be in very good hands.

Thank you Annabelle, for your dedication, your passion, and everything you will bring to our children.

An adventure that we are proud to be part of right from the start.

Choosing this school was an obvious decision for our family. We are fully convinced by the exceptional quality of the teaching team, the human values upheld here, and the high standard of education provided.

Our two daughters were immensely fortunate to be supported by Annabelle for three years. Her gentleness, her active listening, her passion, and her deep respect for each child’s pace have left a lasting mark on our family. From our very first conversations about this new project, we rediscovered that same kindness, sincere listening, and educational vision that puts every child at the heart of their learning, while respecting their rhythm, personality, and potential

I am deeply grateful that my daughters have the chance to be part of the very first graduating class of this school. I am convinced they will grow in a place where excellence goes hand in hand with respect, trust, and personal fulfillment.

I recommend this school with my eyes closed, and above all Annabelle, an extraordinary teacher. I wish her and the entire team wonderful success in this beautiful adventure. We are proud to be part of it right from the start.
