She’s very social and my kids have met some of their best friends through their park outings with Morena. She’s a US citizen who speaks excellent English. She’s a safe driver and has a new car. My kids love her so much (and she loves them so much) and I trust her so much that they have had sleepovers at her house. Morena was an incredible gift for our family. I remember when my eldest was just a few weeks old and we started looking for a nanny. We met with several, but when we met Morena we knew the job was hers. She’s just so warm and loving. Competent and kind. At one point I had 3 kids under the age of 2 and Morena could handle them all. We are saying goodbye because my parents are moving in with us. Otherwise we would never let her go. Our HUGE loss will hopefully be another families gain.”
