Luz has been looking after my daughter Eloise for over two years and she has become a member of the family. She is kind, caring is wonderfully attentive to the child’s needs and teaches and interacts with the child to educate and inspire. She is a very special lady who helps to raise happy confident children.

Luz has been with us for more than 5 years and now she is part of our family.
We love her so much not just because she is great with our daughter but because she is a great person, reliable, generous and always willing to help.
She is amazing with kids of all ages. She helps them developing their skills through games, activities and music. She is super fun and kids love her a lot.

Luz is currently looking after our daughter Alba Mondays to Fridays for a few hours.
We can see how much Alba loves her! She smiles at her when she leaves the door to go home!
