NY Area Nannies

Our nanny, Yuby, is looking for a new full-time (or near full-time) position, and I’m happy to help spread the word.

When we hired her, we anticipated needing many more hours of childcare than we ultimately did. After reevaluating our family’s needs, we’ve realized we need fewer hours than originally expected, so she’s now looking for a new family.

She has been a kind, dependable presence in our home over the past few months. She’s always reliable and punctual, is incredibly sweet and loving with our baby, and has a warm, caring personality. She also takes great pride in keeping our home tidy and helping things run smoothly throughout the day.

If you’re looking for a nanny or know someone who is, please send me a message. I’d be happy to answer questions and connect you with her!

I am writing to recommend our beloved nanny, Yolanda AKA Yoli, for a full-time position. Our family needs have changed for the coming year as all of our children will be in school full time. Yoli has been with our family for two and a half years and has cared for our 3 children (7,4.5, and 2.5) with love, kindness, professionalism, and joy.
Yoli started with our family part-time at 30 hours a week, but after a few weeks, we quickly realized how invaluable her help was and asked her to join us full-time. In the years she has been with our family, she has been a reliable and consistent caregiver for our children. More than that, her warm, fun, and joyful personality has made her an easy addition to our family. We will continue to love and adore her for the years to come.
Yoli has primarily worked with our baby from the time he was one year old, while our older two children were in school. She ensured his toddler days were full of enrichment, quality rest, nutritious foods, and many, MANY friends. Once he started his school program, Yoli has assisted in any and all school related scenarios. With 3 busy children, there are many activities, drop-offs, pick-ups, and schedules to keep track of. Yoli has never been late for a pick-up or missed an activity in all the time she has been with us! She has boundless energy and is always planning activities, play dates, and outings to make sure everyone has a great time after school and on days off.
Additionally, Yoli has been with our family through some major transitions. We moved twice in this short time, and she was there for us to help organize, plan, and ease the transition for our children. She has also helped our children meet some major milestones, including potty training and being rid of the pacifier (it was a miracle!). Our children love her so much and vie for her attention every evening.
Yolanda has always worked to make our lives easier and less stressful. She helps around the house, occasionally walks the dog, runs errands, and manages situations as they arise. We trust her implicitly and would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for an outstanding nanny and member of your team.
Please reach out to me if you have any questions or would like any additional information!

Our wonderful nanny Rosa is looking for a new family. She has over 20 years of experience and is a truly loving and caring individual. She has always been punctual, and has been flexible when we needed her to stay late or work on a weekend. Rosa has taken amazing care of our 1-year old daughter – she is always engaged and I’ve never seen her on her phone except when she was playing music to dance with the baby. When our daughter naps, Rosa usually does some light cleaning and folds the laundry even though we’ve never asked her to do that, she’s just a really helpful and kind person. On our daughter’s first birthday, she even showed up with a little cake, candle and gifts. We cannot recommend Rosa enough, we would be continuing on with her if we could!

This post is about someone truly special: our caregiver Mica is available for full-time work starting in September. She’s been such a gift to our family and our daughter, and I so wish we could keep her on – since we can’t, I’m hoping we can find her an amazing family, preferably in the Brooklyn/BoCoCa area (but she’s open to Manhattan and other parts of Brooklyn too!)

Mica started working with us when our daughter was 1. There are so many things I could say about her and her talents, but a couple things stand out in particular. One is her energy – she has such enthusiasm and spirit in working with our daughter. She’s always down on the rug with our daughter playing, having dance parties, and generally just filling all of our days with joy. Her ability to turn around our daughter’s mood is truly next-level. And when she started, she instantly made friends with a whole network of nannies in our neighborhood, so that my daughter always has a gang of friends to play with. (The parents of those friends who have seen Mica in action also HIGHLY recommend her.)

Another is her flexibility and dedication to our daughter and family. From day 1 she’s been endless adaptable – adjusting to nap and schedule changes so easily – and a true partner in helping to raise our girl. She always has ideas on how to navigate hard stretches and is constantly devising ways to help – when I was solo parenting during a particularly hard time with bedtimes in our household, she even offered to come back at night to take a turn putting our daughter to bed.

Finally, her love, tenderness, and care for our daughter is truly unmatched. Our girl ADORES Mica, and I’m already teary thinking of her not being with us every day. But our loss is your gain, and I know she’ll be snapped up by a wonderful family!

My husband and I strongly recommend our exceptional nanny of over 3 years, Joy, who is caring for our now 3-year-old and 1-year-old daughters. She started with us when our oldest was just 5 weeks old (both parents worked outside of the home by 6 weeks of age). She played a very important role in our transition into parenthood. She has worked with several young families, many for 3+ years. Her very first family worked with her for >15 years, and they still celebrate birthdays and holidays together and consider her part of their family.

Joy is particularly gifted in caring for newborns. She immediately knew how to soothe our new-born daughter, helped us to establish nap and feeding routines, supported my combined nursing/breast milk/formula feeding plan, introduced solids, ensured our baby was clean and well-dressed, and provided loving care to her through every milestone. She coordinated outings to the park, music/gym class, library, playgrounds, and playdates while also tending to the baby’s laundry, meal prep, and light tidying in the children’s areas (she is an expert pillow fluffer and blanket folder and can make every room look a lot neater!). As our baby became a toddler, she helped us with potty-training and pre-school readiness. We have received compliments on our eldest’s manners since she was ~2 years old!

When we welcomed our second daughter, Joy continued to provide developmentally appropriate care to both girls amidst the scheduling challenges of multiple infant naps and school/activity transport. In their 1-3+ years together, both girls have formed a beautiful relationship with her.

She has an easygoing, joyful energy. Both of our children smile wide and run/crawl to her in excitement when she arrives each morning. There is laughter in our home all throughout the day. Joy is dependable, punctual (usually early!), and incredibly flexible, where she was repeatedly willing to arrive early or stay late at short notice due to a change in our workday. She is very safety conscious, and we can completely trust her with our children both inside and outside of the home.

We are now saying goodbye because we are moving to Pennsylvania. Joy is looking to start with her new family in September or October but is overall flexible on the start date. She is especially interested in working with a single, newborn/baby and we would wholeheartedly recommend her for this role. I am happy to provide you with Joy’s resume and an extremely warm and strong letter of recommendation from her first family who have known her the longest. I am also happy to speak on the phone for further information once you speak with Joy.

Our nanny Sher is warm, reliable, and experienced. She is CPR certified and has a lot of experience with newborns and toddlers. She was wonderful with our son and worked with us from the time he was 8 months through 17 months. She helped us transition to 1 nap, ramp up food intake, and ensured he got plenty of time outdoors and at the park. She also took him to classes and met with other nannies so that he could be socialized with other babies around the same age. We recently moved from NY to LA and want make sure she finds her next job!

I highly recommend Berenice. She has been a nanny for my family for close to two years and has done excellent work. I would describe Berenice as kind, dependable, hard working, and professional. She has taken exceptional care of my children, including taking establishing daily routines, planning fun outings, arranging playdates, and planning birthday parties. Berenice is fluent in English and Spanish. In my experience, she is communicative about the children’s development and knowledgeable about best practices in child safety. She has my highest recommendation and my children adore her. We are terminating her position because our childcare needs have changed for reasons unrelated to her work. I hope she finds a supportive family that appreciates all she has to offer!

As my kids are now both in elementary school, we no longer need full time childcare and we’d love to help Rosemarie find her next family to support! She’s been with us for nearly 10 years and she’s truly so special. In addition to caring for our kids since they were babies, she has also helped to cook, clean, organize, take care of household chores and laundry. She’s upbeat and fun, and has done an amazing job arranging play dates, keeping everyone entertained and even throwing impromptu parties with the neighborhood kids. We absolutely love her and she’s been an amazing partner in helping to care for our kids.

Michelle is a very experienced nanny who has been with us for 5 years. She is highly reliable and flexible. She has been great to our kids and we would not have been able to make our jobs and lives work for the past 5 years without her. She does light cooking for the kids and is flexible to come early or stay late on an as needed basis. She has helped us maintain the household by sending grocery list reminders and has worked well with our housekeeper and other sitters. I can’t recommend her enough – we are very sad to see her go. We are only parting with her as both kids will be in school full time starting next school year.

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend our nanny, Hyacinth, who has been with our family for six years. She will be available to join a new family at the end of this summer as our children are now both school aged and we no longer need full time care.

Hyacinth joined our family when our children were infants and has truly been a partner in raising them. She taught them manners that will stick with them for life. She potty trained them with patience and skill. She moved from the baby phase, playing on the floor and reading with them- to the school age phase of playgrounds, homework, and play dates with ease. Hyacinth has boundless energy and understands the importance of keeping children engaged. Her instincts, about our kids, about parenting, about people in general, are always spot on.

Beyond her skill, she is simply a wonderful person to have around. She is endlessly patient, genuinely funny, and deeply principled. She holds the kids to real standards and models the kind of character we hope they grow into.

She has also been an anchor for us in our Brooklyn neighborhood. So many of our closest friendships here exist because of her. She has a gift for reading people and knowing who would be a great fit for our family, and she seems to know every activity, class, and hidden gem in the area. She has been doing this work for a long time, and it really shows in how she shows up for a family.

Most of all, our kids adore her. We know what a difference she can make, and we want her next family to get to feel that too.

If you are looking for a nanny with real experience, wonderful instincts, and a genuine gift for loving children well, we cannot recommend Hyacinth highly enough. She has generations of enthusiastic families willing to vouch for her. Anyone would be lucky to have her.

My incredible nanny, Christine, will be looking for a job starting August 3rd!! If you’re looking for a start date August/ September and live in Hoboken area she is fabulous. She has been with us and our newborn from the very beginning. She is incredibly reliable, on time and works for us 8am-530pm/6pm. She has taught us SO much as well with this being our very first baby. She helped us get our baby onto an amazing routine, sleeping well for her naps, and sleeping 7pm – 7am. This was such a plus as I didn’t think I’d get to learn so much from her.
She’s great for first time moms but also for families with 1+ kids.
– Reliable, has never been late or missed a day
– Well trained, has 20+ years of nanny experience and is very trustworthy
– I can commute to the city without having to worry about my baby as we know she’s safe and in good hands
– Knows Hoboken well and the classes
– Helped us with introducing foods

I am happy to recommend Isi as a nanny. She cared for our daughter for a full year, beginning when she was just 4 months old. During that important stage of our daughter’s development, Isi provided consistent, loving, and attentive care, and it was clear that our daughter absolutely adored her. We always felt that our daughter was safe and well cared for in Isi’s hands, which gave us great peace of mind.

Isi was consistently reliable, punctual, and flexible with our family’s needs. She was also proactive and hardworking – whenever there was downtime, she would find ways to help around the house rather than waiting to be asked. That willingness to pitch in was something we really appreciated and was of great help.

Most importantly, Isi formed a wonderful bond with our daughter and treated her with patience, kindness, and affection. We are grateful for the care she provided over the past year and are confident that she will bring the same warmth, reliability, and dedication to her next position. We wish her all the best and would be happy to recommend her to another family.

Beloved Nanny of 5 Years — Now Available

We are so sad to be writing this, but our family is relocating and our incredible nanny, Tita, is now looking for her next family.

Tita has been with us for 5 years — since our oldest was just 6 months old, and later welcoming our youngest into her care too. She is fluent in Spanish, incredibly warm and affectionate, and our kids absolutely adore her.

A few things that make Tita special:
– Makes the best tacos you’ll ever try — an amazing home cook
– Does the most beautiful hairstyles for the kids
– Warm, social, and a natural community-builder — she helped organize a local nanny group and is loved by other nannies and families alike
– Trusted with our children since infancy, through every milestone

If you’re looking for a nanny who feels like family, we cannot recommend Tita enough. Please reach out for more details or contact her directly.

After 10 years with our family, it is hard to imagine life without Carmen. She started with us when our oldest daughter was a newborn and has been by our side ever since. When our second daughter was born, Carmen was there from day one. She has cared for both of our girls through every stage, from newborns to elementary school and now into the pre-teen years. She has become part of our family.

I still remember those early days as a first-time mom. I worried about everything: naps, bottles, feeding schedules, whether my daughter was happy, and whether she was getting enough sleep. Going back to work felt overwhelming. But once Carmen was there, I never spent my day wondering if my daughter was okay. I knew she was safe, loved, and being cared for like she was Carmen’s own.

Carmen truly loves kids, and they love her right back. She is always taking them on adventures, whether that means exploring a new playground, spending the afternoon at the library or a museum, heading to a class, or simply getting outside to run, play, and be kids. She has a wonderful balance of planning fun activities while also making the everyday moments special. Some of my favorite memories are walking into the house and hearing the three of them laughing in another room. They would be building blanket forts, putting on little shows, making crafts, or just being silly together. They genuinely love spending time with her

One thing that has always stood out to me is how naturally Carmen connects with people. Some nannies are more comfortable with other nannies, but Carmen is comfortable with everyone. She will happily meet up with other nannies, stay-at-home moms, grandparents, neighbors, or parents from school or the playground. She makes people feel comfortable and builds friendships wherever she goes. That meant our girls always had wonderful playdates, friends to meet at the park, and a real sense of community.

We have moved four times while Carmen has been with us, living in different neighborhoods and homes. Every single time, she quickly figured out where everything was, from the best playgrounds and libraries to classes and activities. Before long, she knew the neighborhood, had built a new community, and helped our girls feel completely at home.

As our girls got older, Carmen seamlessly adapted to each new stage. She went from bottles and naps to managing busy schedules, getting them to activities, helping with homework, and encouraging them to become confident and independent.

Carmen is incredibly dependable and trustworthy. In 10 years, I never questioned whether she would show up or whether my children were being cared for. She became the person we relied on every single day. As two working parents, that was invaluable.

Any family would be so lucky to have Carmen. She will love your children, keep them active, help them build confidence and friendships, and become someone your whole family comes to rely on. We cannot recommend her highly enough and would be happy to speak with anyone who is considering welcoming Carmen into their family.

I cannot recommend Sharon highly enough. She was our nanny for the past three years and played an incredible role in raising our daughter during some of her most formative years.

Sharon is dependable, punctual, patient, and genuinely caring. She consistently created a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment, always putting our daughter’s well-being and development first. She is calm under pressure, incredibly attentive, and has a natural ability to connect with children while encouraging their growth, independence, and curiosity.

Beyond being an exceptional caregiver, Sharon became a trusted part of our family. Her professionalism, reliability, and positive attitude gave us complete peace of mind every day. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her caring for their children, and I recommend her without hesitation.

Our incredible nanny Christine is looking for her next family, and I truly can’t recommend her highly enough.

She has been with our family for the past two years, caring for our son since he was just 3 months old. She is joyful, loving, dependable, and has become such an important part of our lives.

As a new mother, I was nervous to hire a nanny back when my son was so little, but Christine immediately proved to be the most amazing caregiver, the transition was seamless, because she is so wonderful but also so experienced. I have never had to correct her in any way, she has always made the smartest decisions when it comes to our son. She does everything exactly how I would want it done, or better!

One of the things we’ve appreciated most is how she has made every day an adventure. She’s constantly taking our son out to explore Brooklyn—visiting parks, playgrounds, museums, libraries, and neighborhood activities that have helped him become curious, confident, and social. Along the way, she’s built a wonderful community of other nannies and families, creating lasting friendships not just for our son, but for us as well.

She has celebrated every milestone with him, encouraged his independence, nurtured his curiosity, and loved him as if he were her own. Knowing he was spending his days learning, laughing, exploring, and being so deeply cared for gave us complete peace of mind.

We will miss her dearly, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.

Christine is responsible for all of our son’s meal planning throughout the week, and she took the lead for us on transitioning him to solids when he was an infant. She loves to cook and makes delicious meals for him every day, never shying away from things like couscous or shellfish! As a result our son loves to eat and is interested in trying new foods.

Christine is available early September.

Our amazing, reliable, calming nanny of 4 years is available. Wilma has been a wonderful addition to our family and would be an absolute asset to anyone looking for loving support in their household. She has been with her daughter since she was a couple of weeks old. Now she cares for her two kids ages 8 and 4. She has been the most reliable, calming presence for her family and would love to help her find her next family to support. She leaves everything clean and the kids have adored how patient and loving she is. She would truly be a gem for anyone looking!

Kinley has been with us 12 years, she is a savvy, sweet and honest woman, capable to handle kids at every age. She is fun, but also firm, very trustworthy and flexible with schedule, and she loves being around children.
Her approach is always very attentive and she always made us feel safe when our daughter is under her care.

Trudy has been with our family for over 5 years and she has provided incredible care for our 3 boys. She is primarily responsible for taking care of our youngest son Clark, who is almost 6. Trudy is patient, kind, engaged and reliable. She has established an extremely close relationship with our son Clark and I feel confident and calm when she is caring for him. She is clear and firm but has established a loving relationship with Clark. She is never on her phone when she is caring for Clark – she plays games with him, has in depth conversations with him and routinely sets up playdates and outings. She is very tidy and helps keep our home clean and organized. Trudy has been a consistent and calming presence in our home and in our lives. She is an amazing caretaker and we are going to miss her so much. We hope she can find another family to help and to grow with.
