Describe Your Nanny

August 5, 2026

To the family considering Isidora Avalos:
Our beloved Isidora (Isi) is newly free to share in the growth of another lucky family! Since my daughter (Bayla Rose) was 5 months old (now over 12y) Isi has provided loving, educational, adventurous, reliable care. Come to think of it, not just for Bayla, but for our whole extended family. She was full-time with us through 2018, then part-time until 2024. Her latest family just moved out of the area so there is the rare opportunity to snap her up full-time for your child.

From tender babyhood through active toddler and school years Isi provided superb care for my daughter, our aging dog, and the whole family! She is the type of caregiver who didn’t just read to Bayla, she created a cozy, interactive, learning time with books–did the whole bit: voices, taught words in English and in Spanish while still giving Bayla room to identify pictures, letters and numbers for herself. Isi didn’t hesitate to roll around on the floor playing “sick” when Bayla was imagining she was a doctor for the umpteenth time.

Isi was the type of caregiver who orchestrated long, joyful days with Bayla assuming the responsibility of full-time parent while I was on shift for 12 hours at a stretch. Each day with us lasted over hours. During that time Isi independently navigated Bayla’s feeding, napping, and hygiene as an infant then when Bayla was older playdates, playground romps, in-home time with dolls, trucks, play kitchen stuff and other toys, not to mention artsy projects, meals, light housework, laundry, older kid personal hygiene and bedtime.

Always punctual, typically early, Isi frequently stayed late without a peep of complaint (as often happened since I work in a Pediatric ER.) She asked for help when (and if) she needed it and took instruction well, though she rarely needed that. In fact, she often kept Bayla on a more consistent playing, learning, eating, bathing, etc. schedule than I (her mother) managed to.

She is a loving and fun addition to our family and always professional. If Bayla weren’t in Middle School with minimal after-school care needs, I’d have kept Isi on full-time.

Don’t hesitate to call or write me if you want to know more or need specific questions answered.

Sincerely,

Rebecca Greene

Describe Your Nanny

Nicole Charles has been employed by my husband and me as our child-care provider since 2007. She has cared for our daughter since she was 4 months old, and our son since he was born.
Our children (now 19 and 16) adore Nicole. She provides strength, comfort, guidance and warmth. Nicole’s dedication to our children is incomparable.
My husband and I rely on Nicole too (sometimes even more than our children do). Nicole is the first person I call in the morning, and she is always eager to hear how we are all doing and if there was anything about which she should be aware. Everything I know about parenting I learned from Nicole.
Nicole is deeply committed to her family, to our family, to her friends and to her community. We are so fortunate to have her in our lives.

Describe Your Nanny

Our wonderful nanny Isabela is looking for a new family in September. Our childcare needs are changing due to school starting. I cannot recommend Isabela highly enough. She was our nanny for the past 2 years and played an incredible role in raising our two sons.

Isablea was took care of our little son daily from he was 4 months old until he turned two. She is extremely loving, caring, and energetic and she developed a special bond with our son very quickly. She managed his schedule, including naps and nap transitions, his meals, including transition to solids, took him to classes and activities, helped him reach developmental milestones and more. He was always happy to see her when she arrived.

Additionally, she took care of our older son on no-school days and regular evenings. She handled pickup from school, dinner bath and bed time for both kids. We could also always rely on her to help us bring one or both kids to the grandparents or depending on our schedule.

We always appreciated Isabela’s initiative. Beyond doing activities asked of her, she was proactive in suggesting new things, organizing play dates and kid parties with other children in our building/community.

Isabela is dependable, punctual, flexible, and genuinely caring. She is calm under pressure, incredibly attentive, and has a natural ability to connect with children while encouraging their growth, independence, and curiosity. We completely trust her and ar esad to part ways with her. Any family would be lucky to have her!

Describe Your Nanny

Our incredibly nanny Magaly is looking for a full-time position starting in September or October. She has been with our family for 9 years, caring for our 3 children from the time they were 3 months old to elementary school. Now that all of our kids are in school full time, we no longer need a full-time nanny.

Magaly is incredibly patient, kind, and dependable. She is especially wonderful with babies and young children. Magaly speaks English and Spanish and she speaks to all of our children in Spanish. They are all now bilingual. She is like a teacher for our kids. She keeps the kids engaged in activities in the city, library visits and playdates. She is often reading to them, playing games and doing creative projects. She has an incredible amount of patience. Magaly is dependable and reliable and always on time. Our kids adore Magaly and all have formed very special connections with her. She also helps us with laundry for our kids, kid meal prep and organization of our kids’ things which has been invaluable.

Magaly has been such an important part of our family, is a very special person, and we can’t recommend her highly enough.

Describe Your Nanny

We are relocating, which is why our wonderful nanny, Sonia, is looking for a part-time position on the Upper East Side for the upcoming school year.

She is hoping to find one wonderful family for the school year and would be a great fit for a family looking for part-time help—whether that’s a few full days each week, afternoons after school, or approximately 20–30 hours per week.

Sonia is truly exceptional. She is never late, incredibly dependable, proactive, warm, and calm. She has years of experience caring for infants and young children, has a preschool background, and is CPR certified. She loves planning engaging activities and is constantly creating themed arts and crafts projects that make learning fun. She has an excellent understanding of child development, including both gross and fine motor skills, and thoughtfully tailors activities to each child’s developmental stage. She is also very knowledgeable about developmental milestones and is always thinking one step ahead. She takes initiative without being asked and has become such an important part of our family.

She is a native Spanish speaker from Peru and would be an especially wonderful fit for a family looking to raise bilingual children or simply expose their children to Spanish.

I recommend Sonia wholeheartedly.

Describe Your Nanny

Vanessa is not only an incredible nanny but also a truly trustworthy, compassionate, flexible, and reliable person. She was with our family from the time my son was just four months old until he turned six, when we relocated to New Jersey.

Throughout those years, Vanessa became an integral part of our family. She is patient, loving, and kind, and always put my son’s well-being first. She filled his days with enriching activities, including trips to the library, parks, museums, classes, playdates, and school. Vanessa has a wonderful sense of humor, and my son was constantly learning, growing, and laughing while in her care.

As a first-time mom, I learned so much from Vanessa. She played a key role in both sleep training and potty training my son and provided invaluable guidance along the way. She is also an excellent cook, did laundry, and took great care in ensuring my son ate healthy, nutritious meals.

Vanessa has extensive experience with twins, babies, toddlers, and school-aged children. I cannot recommend Vanessa highly enough. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her care for their children.

Describe Your Nanny

I’m going to struggle to describe what a wonderful person, loving caretaker, and positive presence Bhavana is. She took care of our 1-year-old, and with Bhavana, our daughter took tremendous strides in her confidence, language and walking (little pun there). Bhavana is patient and playful with her, and I love to see them together, and my daughter clearly loves being with her. She herself is quite intelligent (a college degree and partway through a Master’s in Data Science), fun and friendly, and we really like spending time with her and are grateful she has been part of our family.
We really weren’t planning to part with her, but one of the few daycare slots in our neighborhood with 3K opened up and we had to take it.
To list a few of her best attributes, aside from the good care she takes of our daughter:
1/ She’s an excellent cook for the whole family. I ate her food about 2X per day, but she was also very intentional about making things the baby would enjoy and would challenge her.
2/ She did fantastic at keeping the kitchen and whole house clean.
3/ She is punctual, usually early despite a commute from NJ to Brooklyn.
4/ She was great at fostering social interaction and community. She quickly made friends with the other nannies in our building (one of my friends relayed what glowing things his nanny said about Bhavana) and frequently brought our daughter to play with the other kids around. She was great about bringing her to Little Gym and the library and helping her stretch.
5/ Her English is fantastic and loved reading books with my daughter. I also wanted her to mix in some Hindi and she’s been great about it.

Please let me know if I can speak more about how lovely she is: my number is 929-264-7515‬ or email me. And to reach Bhavana directly, you can text or email her at 551-362-7697, vuttunoori0667@gmail.com

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.

– An amazing home cook who makes nutritious, kid-approved meals every day — and her tacos are the best you’ll ever try
– Does the most beautiful hairstyles for the kids

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.

She is trustworthy, dependable, endlessly patient, and treats our kids like family.

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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.

Describe Your Nanny

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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!

Describe Your Nanny

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.
