About Me

Hi, I’m HELEN

I live in Chester UK.. I have four daughters, two female dogs, three girlie cats and an outnumbered husband!

I trained as an actor and spent many happy years touring with children’s theatre companies. I then went on to combine my love of theatre and children’s books, to form my own preschool storytelling company. I also narrate books for Audible and write and direct scripts for Enact Solutions, a drama-based training company.

Hi, I’m Carla

I live in Santiago, Chile. I’m a digital and traditional illustrator. I have been lucky enough to work with authors from all over the world. I’m at my absolute happiest when painting and sketching with my two cats by side! I have loved working with Helen on ‘Let’s talk to Mummy’s tummy’ and look forward to working with her on future projects together!
