“We are relocating to the east coast at the end of the year and are truly devastated to lose Lulu. She’s been with our girls since they were born and is truly their second mom. She’s helped us raise the girls! She started with us when our eldest daughter was 3 months old. By the time she leaves us, she will have been in our family for almost 6 years. She takes the girls to play dates, school pick up/drop off, activities, sports, etc. She’s shown them so much love and care over the years & we will be forever grateful to her. She’s also only spoken to our girls (now 5 and 3 y/o) in Spanish, so they are both fluent! Lulu is extremely reliable, competent and responsible. She is never late and is rarely sick. She’s gone on trips with us & we’ve left the kids with her overnight while my husband and I have gone out of town. My husband and I are both from the east coast and have very full careers. The only reason we are able to manage our lives is because Lulu takes such amazing care of our girls. I cannot recommend her highly enough for any caregiver position!”
Cassie Mogilner Holmes (Past Employer) Professor of Marketing at UCLA Anderson School of Management:
“Our little Lita is starting preschool. Though an exciting next step for our family, we’re so sad to be losing Luciana! Luciana has been with us since we moved to L.A., taking care of our daughter, Lita, all day and our son, Leo, when he’s off from school. She is a terrific nanny and has tons of experience helping raise babies—being with families until the little ones start school. Not only does she drive and take Lita to her gym classes and music classes, but she is warm and funny and loves the kids, and they love her! She is also *incredibly* competent and reliable, which I love. She has never been late, somehow seems to never be sick, and is always willing to help out in whatever way she can to make our lives run smoothly and happily (including helping with our grocery shopping). This is really key for us in managing our careers along with the happiness and well-being of the kiddos. Any family would be lucky to have Luciana, just as we have been!”
