A STRATEGIC APPROACH TO CARE
Family Offices
Family Offices are often tasked with solving highly personal challenges — coordinating education, wellbeing, and long-term planning across generations. Yet when a child requires additional support, the responsibility can fall outside the office’s usual expertise.
Luma partners with Family Offices to provide a clear, coordinated structure for these situations — ensuring that household teams, tutors, and professionals operate in alignment, and that parents receive reliable, discreet support without adding administrative weight to the office.
Understanding the Challenge
Family offices manage complexity every day — but when it comes to SEN and child development, the challenges are nuanced:
Fragmented communication between household, school, and therapy professionals.
Staff turnover or relocation disrupting established routines.
Lack of internal expertise to assess and advise on SEN-related matters.
Sensitive coordination between parents, trustees, and advisors on long-term care and independence planning.
These gaps can lead to stress for families and inefficiency for the office.
Luma provides the specialist structure to close them — professionally, privately, and without friction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Because we bridge the gap between operational household management and specialist child development. We provide the expertise and oversight most offices are not resourced to deliver internally.
We can do either. Some offices prefer us to liaise directly with the principals, others prefer a single point of contact through the Chief of Staff or Family Director.
We deliver concise, confidential updates designed for executive consumption — highlighting progress, risks, and key decisions required.
Yes. We coordinate with existing advisors and integrate their input into a unified family framework, ensuring that expertise is applied consistently.
All engagements are bound by confidentiality agreements. No information is shared externally without explicit authorisation.
Yes. We frequently work with legal, financial, and educational advisors to ensure the child’s care and long-term planning align with the family’s broader governance and legacy structures.
Not necessarily. Many families we support simply recognise a lack of alignment — whether behavioural, educational, or relational — and seek to introduce professional structure before problems escalate.
