A little bit about me

I am 28 years old, from Detroit, Michigan. I studied in Texas and now live in sunny California. I love fashion and social media and spending time with my church. I have worked with many different people, cultures and language barriers. Growing up in church I have always had a passion for people and community and service. These were just stepping stones into my future career after school. Once my position moved into a more professional role, I have been able to work with many high net worth and high profile families. I excel at following tasks and lists, as well as running things efficiently on my own and managing my clients home life, children, appointments etc. I wear many hats in my role and have had to manage multiple children and adults while being punctual and efficient. I love to work hard and have room to grow with my future family. This isn’t just a job for me, it’s about making a difference in the lives we connect and grow with.

"I am a Co-Director of CFL Kids' Camp, a one-week resident camp for abused children, ages 7-11, of which Jennifer volunteered for a few summers. She was responsible for 1 or 2 young girls, 24/7, throughout her week at camp. I found her to be highly responsible and very engaged with her campers. She is a sweet girl and very independent. I have lost touch with her over the past few years as she moved out-of-State. My dealings with her are favorable and I wish her the best on her quest for seeking a position with your firm."

"We needed a temporary nanny and after connecting with several nannies, we hired Francisca. Just from the initial communication she was professional and personable. It was lovely to find out she was even better on the job. She provided care for my four-month-old son but my two year old also felt instantly comfortable with her. My son was very well taken care of and Francisca was able to learn and adapt to our style quickly. I notice she is intuitive and attentive in her care for my son and the fact that she has an RN background and caregiving background comes through. Francisca will be a great help to any family and we recommend her very much."

"Diana worked with us and our almost two-year old and she was fantastic!! She safely drove Miles to and from daycare every day, prepared healthy food and fed him, changed diapers, bathed him, started working on potty training, introduced him to new foods, took him to the playground, and spoke to him in a way that we really think immensely expanded his vocabulary. She had such a natural way of communicating with him and explaining things to him that worked so well and is continuing to help him mature into a happy, healthy and communicative toddler! She was always extremely prompt, never late, and super flexible in terms of staying late whenever we needed her to. Additionally she was always willing to help with household tasks like folding laundry, taking out the garbage/recycling and light cleaning of dishes. I am happy to speak more with anyone who is interested in hiring Diana, as we'd love to help her find her next perfect nannying job!"
