Candice Miller wanted to highlight and give recognition to the invaluable contribution these people provide. Having a caregiver from a different nationality engaging and caring for our children provides invaluable human insights into different cultures, languages and sensibilities.
Diamond Design wants to enable the person who was reared - and who is now a young adult - the chance to say thank you with a personalised memento to their caregiver from Diamond Design.
Says Miller, “Designing a bespoke jewellery piece, combining the clients brief with ethically sourced stones, mirroring the love, dedication and affection that the child raiser gave, is of great significance to me.”
Miller remembers with fondness Miriam, who helped raise her. However, because of the South African historical context, she did not have the opportunity to appropriately say thank you and lost contact with her.
