P.J. emigrated to the US in the late 70s. She taught herself English and learned a trade to support her children. She eventually was able to own her own market. Between running her own business and helping other refugees assimilate to their new lives in the US, she found that she was spread too thin and wanted to be present more to her children. She sold her business and became a nanny. Her refs say that she is "very special"-working hard to raise 4 successful children by herself in the US, overcoming much adversity. As one reference put it, P.J. "turns lemons into lemonade." Another reference says, "there is much to be learned from her! Not only has she taken great care of our children but she has provided them with life lessons along the way." Call us right away to meet this special person.
