Nannies Inc. is a smart and whimsical short story.Ninfa Hayes pulls you straight in to the story with quirky and descriptive world building, characters and dialogue. I loved the basis of the story, with Mary Poppins and her tale as the perfect foundation. The idea that such an agency could exist is fascinating, and is very plausible. But what I loved the most was the hint and merge of time travel/a time warp of sorts; a trip down a rabbit hole is definitely part and parcel of working for this company, and I find that fab.Nannies Inc. is the perfect foundation for future stories as I am sure that Elizabeth and many of the other ladies employed in the company will have many an adventure and with many possibilities for danger, or shenanigans.All in all, Hayes has a lovely voice, and Nannies Inc. is definitely a charming, fun, and all around good read for when you need a little break from reality.
