Our Story
Susan Fernandez and her family moved to Orlando, FL several years ago. Moving to a new location without any friends or extended family made finding reliable, trusting and loving childcare very difficult. Especially when she went back to college for Occupational Therapy, it was hard to find the right nanny that fit her family’s needs and could provide consistent care. So, when the opportunity came to be an owner of Oliver’s Nannies, she couldn’t resist it. She fell in love with the business model and knew the concept of not only placing nannies but managing and coordinating a family’s customized childcare plan was such a needed service in the Orlando area.
Susan has both an undergraduate business degree and a degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant where she specialized in pediatric therapy for 5 years. When she wasn’t providing therapeutic care for children she worked on the business development side for home care companies. While she adores working with children, she has always been a businesswoman at heart which drew her to becoming a franchise consultant and ultimately led her to finding Oliver’s Nannies.
You will often find Susan with her husband Chris at golf tournaments with their daughter Abigail, theatre productions with their daughter Kyleigh or chasing their fur babies Chip and Milo. They all fill her heart with joy and keep her busy on her toes. But no matter how busy she is with her family or her business she always tries to find time for herself on her yoga mat. The quiet time of exercise, mindfulness and meditation is what keeps her centered and at peace to tackle her day. Her children are now close to grown at the ages of 19 and 16, but her experience in raising them is what will provide the understanding and empathy of what your family needs for childcare. She is excited to be a part of your journey with your precious loved ones. She knows they are your whole world, and she is honored to be a part of it.
