    Elena has worked for me as a personal assistant since June-18. I am a working parent of 3 kids (ages 10-14). Elena has made our lives easier, allowing me to focus on work and family, rather than worrying about making dinner, driving kids to appointments, running errands or doing laundry. Elena is a self-starter and uses her time wisely. She created routines for managing the household tasks such as laundry and grocery shopping. She is proactive and recognizes what needs to be done and follows through to completion. Elena is also an excellent cook and makes healthy meals for us 2-3 times per week. She started out making some of our family favorite recipes, but quickly moved to making suggestions for meals based on our likes/dislikes. She has also helped at birthday parties, sorted Legos, planted annuals, taken our cat to the vet, wrapped gifts and more! Elena is an excellent communicator, punctual, flexible, and very calm. I highly recommend Elena, she would be an asset to any family.
