Hi! I’m Anees, a mother of two, edutainer, theatre practitioner, puppeteer, teacher, and children’s storyteller with over 15 years of experience working with families and children. I found my ikigai—my happy little place—Heidelbells, in the charming city of Heidelberg, Germany.

Here, I spend my days with my favorite kind of people: little humans who teach me more than they’ll ever know. Together, we sing, dance, share stories, read books, play with puppets, and explore the enchanting world of drama and theatre. Every moment is filled with laughter, learning, and joy. Best of all, parents join in — sharing precious, screen-free moments of connection with their children.

In our interactive English playgroups, children of all levels—whether just beginning or already familiar with the language—explore creativity, develop confidence, build literacy skills, and activate or strengthen their English through singing, movement, storytelling, puppetry, and theatre.

These experiences extend beyond the playgroup, with storytelling sessions, English-through-theatre workshops, and interactive children’s shows offered at libraries, schools, kindergartens, and kids’ clubs at hotels. Birthday performances are also available, adding a touch of theatre and fun to special celebrations.

At Heidelbells, every activity is an invitation to play, imagine, and grow together—come and join the fun!
