A more human approach to care and family life

Origen was founded on the belief that the best appointments are not based solely on experience, but on compatibility, trust and a genuine understanding of each family environment.

Today, we work discreetly with families, private households and international lifestyles across Madrid, London and beyond.

Selective by design

We believe in doing things with care, judgement and discretion.

We work with a limited number of families and searches at any one time, because it is the only way to provide a truly personalised service.

We are equally thoughtful in our approach to the families we support and the professionals we represent.

Those who place their trust in Origen entrust us with something deeply important: their homes, their families and their careers.


That trust defines the way we work and we protect it above all else.

The value of finding the right person

Before we begin the search, we take the time to understand each family

Only then is it possible to build lasting relationships founded on trust and create households that thrive in harmony

Ángel Fernández

Co-Founder & COO

Ángel has built his career in London, spending many years within international private environments where discretion, excellence and trust are part of everyday life.

Before founding Origen, Ángel worked in education in London, an experience that continues to shape his perspective on childhood, care and the importance of the early years. He later went on to work within private households and international family structures of the highest calibre, developing a particularly human and nuanced understanding of this world.

Alongside his work in the private sector, Ángel is an artist and the founder of MAFE (Making Art For Enlightenment), an artistic and educational initiative focused on childhood, creativity and the impact of technology on future generations.

Today, he leads Origen alongside Katharina, bringing together empathy, international experience and a contemporary vision of private family support.

Private clients

We understand that every household operates differently

Behind every family are unique rhythms, values and needs that require a deeply personalised approach.

From individual appointments to more complex family structures, Origen provides a discreet and carefully tailored service for every environment.
