Calling All Grandparents: Your Help is Needed!

| September 20, 2020 | 0 Comments |

Hello, Friends!

I am beyond thrilled you’re here. The Windy City Nanny is a project that has been near and dear to my heart for quite some time now. As the oldest of four with an autistic brother, I grew up caring for my younger siblings.

My Nana and Papa (AKA my grandparents) lived with my family for years, and they helped me understand what it means to care for a child. Seeing them look after my siblings and parents taught me one very important lesson: it really does take a village. Letting other people into our hearts isn’t a sign of weakness. If anything, it only makes us stronger!

I nannied for 15 amazing years, and when I finally sat down to write Nanny and Me, it really felt like the story had been written on my heart for decades.

Today, I’m a proud member of the Board of Directors at the Children’s Research Fund, an incredible organization that supports the pediatric research at Lurie Children’s Hospital here in Chicago. I’m also a founding member of Sesame Street’s Leadership Council, and I look after the honorary kids in my life on the daily. They call me “Auntie Lo”––stinkin’ cute, I know!

I’m always inspired by my family and friends and I try to live by the motto, “Have courage and be kind.” Life is all about being positive; pushing boundaries; opening your heart; and letting in the love. I truly believe parents will experience beautiful breakthroughs in their homes if they simply ask for help––and that’s what I am here to do… to encourage and empower you to be the best you can be by letting love in.

From my heart to yours,
