When I needed help to care for my first child, I started the process just like any other new parent. I did not know where to turn and how to begin the process. After a great deal of trial and error, I ultimately found a wonderful nanny to help me and elected to change careers. Realizing that there was a desperate need for good companies who could help other parents like me find the right assistance for their children, I decided to work from home and learn everything about the proper way to hire domestic help. I put that knowledge to work and began my own company. Domestic Connections Agency has been a full service agency for over 20 years. Our domestic agency is located in Encino, California.

I was born in Madrid, Spain and came to United States as an immigrant at age five. We first landed in New York, but most of my life has been spent in Los Angeles. I attended UCLA majoring in Spanish and Linguistics. Domestic Connections Agency of Los Angeles, California, a Nanny, Housekeeper and Companion placement company began in 1989.

Several years ago, I started writing a book to help domestic employers follow proper procedures for hiring and maintaining their household help. In 2006 "Help! How To Find Hire Train and Maintain Your Household Help" was published and received the Mom's Choice Award. Currently, I give workshops at educational centers for parents to train others on How to Hire a Nanny and other related subjects.

National and regional television and radio talk shows have invited me as an expert commentator to discuss the various issues that currently affect domestic personnel.

A second book has just been completed to train all types of domestic employees how to perfect their skills and become professional housekeepers. "The Professional Housekeeper" Book/DVD is available in Spanish or English.  This offers both the employer and employee training in: Housekeeping, Laundry, Marketing, Cooking, Table Setting and Flower Arranging.  PLUS a separate manual on Career Development: How to Present Yourself for a Job, How to Establish an Employee/Employer Contract, How to Deal with Problems and Issues on the Job, and How to Maintain your Job.
