Claudia was born in Colombia. Her parents live in a beautiful city, Medellin. Claudia's father is a dentist and still works, her mother is a nurse but after having the first child stopped working.
Claudia has two sisters, Vera is a dentist and works in NY, and Liliana is a graphic designer like her and lives in Tampa; which we visit frequently. Also Claudia has two brothers, Luis loves real estate and he is very good at it, Claudia's other brother, Gabriel, is a dentist also and married his college girlfriend who is also a dentist. They have two beautiful girls; Claudia's only nieces that are planning to visit us soon and improve their English language taking some classes for a couple months.
Claudia and Richard’s Family
Since we were little, Claudia's parents always thought about how to ensure our happiness and provide us a good education. Now, Claudia is living in the USA along with her siblings, married to a wonderful man, working as a graphic designer and fluent in two languages. Claudia became a successful woman as a result of a continuous effort of parents giving us the best they could. Claudia feels very proud of her background and all she is now is because of her family.
Richard was born in the suburbs in New York; he had a wonderful childhood enjoying the many benefits of a loving and caring family. He has one older brother and two younger sisters, they have given us four nieces and three nephews, which we adore and visit every chance we can. All of our nieces and nephews can't wait to be babysitters and have a new cousin to play with. His family is very close so we visit them often, we go for every birthday and special events as well as visits just to say hello.
We are looking to give your child all the values we grew up with. Your child will always be with us in good and in bad and we will protect the child in all circumstances. The child will have a large loving family which includes aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins and good friends.
Our House and Neighborhood
Our Home
We bought our home shortly after we were married. We moved to New Jersey close to the border of New York so we are equally close to our jobs and family. We both lived in small apartments and to have our own home is a dream come true. It is a perfect size to start a family.
At the Zoo
The room we use the most is a large living room, which we love to entertain in. It is connected to our deck and it is ideal to have a BBQ with friends and family. We also love to have friends over to watch movies in our room with a big screen TV. Richard is a movie buff and he loves to show off that room.
We live in a well-populated neighborhood, which has an excellent school system. There are also a lot of parks near by that are always full of children and families. We chose this area to move to because we feel that this will be a wonderful place to raise a child and every parent we talk with agrees.
