Meet the Washers
Your washer is your child’s teacher, the person you sit next to at church, maybe even your neighbor! Our washers partake in an extensive interview and training process before they take on any clients. Most importantly our washers are a part of the communities they serve and love where they live!

Amy - Prosper, TX
Hi y'all! My name is Amy Avila. I have a precious husband, Javier, one son, Cameron, and a girlfriend- in law, Camila! I serve the Prosper and Celina area to take the stress off of you and help you with your laundry needs. When I'm not washing, I own my own Skin Care Studio. So, needles to say, I love downtime. I enjoy spending time with my family, shopping, spending girl time with my bestie, and traveling when I can. All of this brings me so much joy, but my biggest joy comes from knowing my Savior and that I'll see Him one day. What an amazing God we serve to promise us His kingdom. Being in the service industry with Skin Care and laundry, I also love making people happy. I love seeing the smiles on someone's face from something I did or said. My favorite Bible verse is:Luke 1:45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her.I love to picture God writing this to me! It reminds me also to always believe the Lord will do what He says He will and I don't have to worry about anything.This picture is my husband, my son, and his long time girlfriend, and myself. I feel so blessed!
