Our babysitter/nanny is looking for a new family and is available to start in June. Enid Guy started with us when our first daughter was 2 months old, has been with us for almost 4 years, and we want to help her find a great new family. She has worked for us full time and is looking for full time work but would consider some part time positions. There are many wonderful things about Enid. Most importantly, she is responsible, reliable and confident, and our children have been safe and happy with her. Second, she always had genuine affection for our girls (now 13, 10, and 5 yo) and she developed wonderful warm relationships with them: our girls are always happy to see her in the morning, and having a good time when we came home. She was proactive in helping them learn to communicate and use language, numbers, colors, etc. On top of this Enid was helpful getting our oldest daughter on a schedule and introduced both our girls to wonderful foods and cultivated a good attitude about food: they eat fruits/ veggies/ meat and fish and even spicy food. She also potty trained our eldest in 2 weeks when she was 2 years old! She manages the two children at the same time with an ease that I aspire to. Enid has a wonderful positive attitude and it is easy to communicate with her and she is responsive to input. She has more than 20 years of experience, including nanny share for two infants, and she had glowing references from her 3 previous employers. She is active and likes to go on walks and play outside. She independently arranges playdates and fun adventures: she and our eldest have explored every corner of NYC together from the Bronx Zoo, to museums, the aquarium and Coney Island. As a pediatrician and a scientist, my husband and I both have sometimes irregular and inflexible schedules and we were grateful that Enid was always punctual and flexible. She is rarely sick and never calls out. My husband and I are so grateful to have Enid as a member of our family. Please contact us at [email protected] or contact Enid directly at 646-479-7736.We look forward to talking to you about Enid!

She helped establish routines based on our needs, healthy sleep practices, healthy eating practices, exercises to develop her gross and fine motor skills, and maintaining strong hygiene and a clean and safe environment. We have a nanny share, so Mynette took care of 2 girls at the same time. We were so impressed by her ability to meet both of their independent needs, while also working with them to team them how to socialize and learn from each other. Most importantly, our daughter has such a strong love for Mynette. It is such a comforting and relieving feeling to have someone so reliable and trustworthy to leave our daughter with!

We are moving at the end of May and will have to say goodbye to Marilyn who has been our daughter’s loving nanny. We were in a pinch when we met her and are so lucky she was willing to join us for a short-term position. Over the past 5 months she has taken amazing care of our now one year old who loves Marilyn deeply. Marilyn is a natural with children. She raised many kids of her own and has also been a nanny for other families. Additionally she has taken care of the elderly. Marilyn is always early, keeps the apartment clean and cooks delicious meals! Marilyn is incredibly sweet with our daughter. Holds her lovingly, plays on the floor with her, reads to her, cooks her delicious meals, takes her to classes/play groups and spends lots of time outside with her. She immediately adopted our schedule and has stuck with it which we really appreciate. Marilyn has been extra helpful as we prepare for our move while we also list/shoe our apartment. I’m not sure how we would have survived the past month without her!

Wilma was with our family for over 15 years, since our daughter (J.) was 4 months old, at which point I returned back to work post maternity leave. She is very responsible, always on time, thoughtful, and diligent. Most importantly, she is a very safe, loving, gentle, supportive, and caring person. She has a calm, patient demeanor. For me the most important thing as a new mother was that J. was safe and loved, particularly as I was away at work. She has experience through every stage: infant, toddlerhood, preschool, childhood and pre-teen years. She is fully COVID vaccinated/boosted. She is happy to start caring for an infant again, or she is also happy to care for children in older stage ages - she is very flexible. We live on the UWS, but she is totally fine with other places across the city/boroughs. She is a kind soul, and she is an important person to us. My daughter, now a teenager, loves her deeply. I am taking an active role in helping her find a family. If any of you are in need of a nanny, or know someone who might be, please feel free to contact me at the 646# or you may contact her directly at the 917#. Thank you so much.

She loves spending time outside with the kids and is not someone to sit around on her phone/on a bench. She is always in the action - without being overbearing. She is just as good with newborns as she is toddlers and I have never questioned her ability to handle both my kids (2 years apart) - and still leave the house clean and tidy. She is extremely reliable. I cannot say enough good things about Cadia. We have used her as a babysitter since our son was a baby (he is now 3.5) and part-time for the last 1.5 years. We are moving out of state and are sad to leave her. She has become a part of our family. I'm happy to provide more details and chat.

Our former nanny, Sylvanne, is available for a full time, live out position starting immediately. She is COVID vaccinated and boosted. Sylvanne started with our family when my son was 2 months old. As a first time mom, I had a lot of anxiety about letting anyone care for our baby, but I trusted her immediately and she became part of the family. From the start, she was always singing, playing and laughing with my son and created a very nurturing and safe environment for him. She worked with him on developmental milestones such as tummy time, rolling and eventually walking. She would always prepare his meals and would make meal time a lot of fun. She loved being outside and took him for long walks and to the playground daily. As he got older, she developed relationships with other nannies for play dates. She was genuinely invested in his growth, happiness and development. She accompanied me to every pediatrician visit and was always positive and encouraging. Sylvanne is a career nanny with over 15+ years experience. She is a professional and we would highly recommend her. Sylvanne lives alone and is extremely cautious about Covid. I was never worried about her whereabouts and possible exposure for our family. She was never texting or making calls on her phone during work hours. Our needs have changed for our family since my job will continue to be remote from home due to Covid.

As our children embark on school full time, I’m looking to help our wonderful nanny Carol who’s been with us for the last 4.5 years secure a role with a new family. Carol has well over 15 years of experience and has been with us since my daughter was 6 months old, becoming an integral part of our family, helping with my now 4.5 year old daughter and 2 year old son. Carol is a true professional in every sense of the word - from keeping both kids on a schedule from day 1, organizing playdates, playing educational games with them, teaching both of my children manners and taking care of their food and laundry, our family has come to rely on her for everything with regards to both of our kids. The tell tale sign for me is that my kids are SO happy to see Carol every morning and both of my children will run after her when she leaves, making sure they get one last hug in the evening. She loves our kids as if they were her own and honestly, after 4.5 years together, she is family. She is very social and proactive about meeting other nannies and babysitters to set up playdates and always kept my kids entertained, filling their days with playdates and park outings. She kept my children on schedule and would keep me updated daily and every day when we get home from work, the kids are well-fed and the kitchen sparkles. Carol is accountable, responsible and respectful. She drives our children to school and makes sure all of their meals are taken care of throughout the day. She is ALWAYS on time and manages everything related to the kids, which is so helpful. It should also be noted that Carol is fully vaccinated and boostered and is extremely careful and cautious when it comes to keeping our kids healthy and safe. She is a non smoker, drives and comes with excellent references from myself and others.

I am posting a reference for our long time and trusted nanny, Ash. We are moving to eastern Long Island and unfortunately need to find another family for Ash who lives in NYC. Ash has been with us for over 2 years and was truly a blessing for our family. My wife and I both have very demanding schedules but have never had to worry about our daughter - as we know she is well taken care of with Ash. Our daughter is fully toilet trained, feeds herself, has a dependable sleep schedule, demonstrates excellent manors, and has a robust vocabulary (all by age 2) thanks to the effort Ash has put in. Ash can be relied on to prepare fresh, varied, and healthy meals every day. She is an organizational master-mind and keeps our daughters room in pristine condition. Ash is extremely diligent and can be trusted with any task relating to our daughter (including play dates, park visits, etc). She routinely arrives early to start the day and will wrap up all chores before leaving. Ash is way more than a nanny, she is an asset to any family she works with. Ash has always made unexpected late nights and weekend days work and can be relied on to join the family for any holiday trips. She is vaccinated / boosted and has always been thoughtful about being CV-19 conscious. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

We are posting on behalf of our incredible nanny Stephanie. She has been with us for nearly 4 years, and we truly consider Stephanie part of our family. Sadly we have to part since we are moving out of NYC, but we would recommend her without hesitation. Stephanie joined us when our eldest daughter was only a few months old, and we immediately felt comfortable with our daughter in her care. Stephanie’s many years of experience were evident as she sang, read, and played with our daughter, and also helped guide us as new parents. Stephanie was integral in helping us maintain a sleep schedule as well as knowing when to introduce new foods, which she prepares herself! As our daughter got older, Stephanie took the initiative to arrange social activities such as music and movement classes as well as befriending other nannies and arranging playdates. About a year and a half ago we welcomed our second daughter, and Stephanie did not miss a beat in now caring for our both of our children. Our girls just love her and you can really tell they have a special bond because Stephanie genuinely enjoys spending time with them. Stephanie has always been a great communicator, giving us regular updates on our girls, and is responsible and reliable. We know that she will make a wonderful addition to the next family she joins. Stephanie is looking for a full time position in Manhattan beginning in late May / early June, and we would be happy to answer any and all questions.

Dione was with us for almost 11 years, since my son was 3 months old. She started with us in NYC and decided to commute to us in Westchester when we moved. Due to a change in my husband's job status, we no longer needed full-time childcare. Dione lives in Brooklyn and is looking for a full-time position closer to home. Dione is kind, caring, loving, and extremely responsible. We never had any issues with tardiness or unexplained absences. Dione transitioned wonderfully from caring for my children as infants to their current ages of 12 and 9 years old. When my children were toddlers, Dione took them to various activities at the library and play gyms. Once they transitioned to school age, she took them to all after-school activities. People often compliment us on how well-behaved and polite our children are, and a lot of that is attributed to Dione teaching them as they have grown. Dione also helped my children through the year of quarantine with their remote schooling and homework. We considered Dione a part of the family and were very sad to see her go. Any family would be extremely lucky to have her take care of their children.

Gina is simply amazing. She is warm, kind, positive, extremely responsible and trustworthy. She started working with our family from the time our twins were 9 months to 3.5 yrs old. She always got down on the floor to play with them (she has so much energy). She is not one to put them in front of the TV or stare at her phone. Gina helped us navigate life with children & was so helpful to lean on for guidance. She quickly and continues to be part of our family.

Yvonne was our nanny from the time our daughter was a few months old until she was 11 and she is an absolutely wonderful nanny. She is a very responsible, caring, gentle and encouraging person. I particularly appreciated how engaged she was with our daughter when at home or on regular trips to the parks, museums and around the neighborhood. She was a dream come true for our family. I frequently received compliments from other parents about how great Yvonne was with our daughter and I always felt completely secure with leaving our daughter in Yvonne’s care. We had such a great experience with her! Yvonne also has experience with newborns, including working as a baby nurse. Happy to do reference calls.

I'm excited to recommend our fantastic nanny, Alicia, who's available for a full-time position beginning mid-June. Our childrens’ schedules are changing, otherwise I would not her go! I couldn’t picture a most experienced, professional and reliable nanny. As first-time parents, I interviewed a whole slew of different candidates, but it was clear that Alicia's background and phenomenal references made her the obvious choice. She came to us with over 20 years of experience with just 3 families - each of which she was with for over 5 years, which is a testament to her talent. She’s now been with us for 6 years, watching both of our kiddos since they were babies. I feel confident that she has my kids’ best interest at heart, and makes sure that their safety, happiness and well-being are always top priority. She has an extensive background with infants, toddlers and children under 10. She's incredibly trustworthy, professional, loving, has a great work ethic, and absolutely adores our kids. The feeling's mutual, as they light up when they see her in the morning (they shout “Hi, She She!!” and give her big hugs). She's patient and kind with them, but also encouraging and sets appropriate boundaries. She's respectful of our preferences, but I can't imagine what we would have done without her insight, guidance and suggestions. She's truly an expert in raising children! Before they were in school (even as infants), she would take them on fun outings in the neighborhood -- and sends us great photos throughout the day. She's social with other nannies, and quickly found a group of friends for my son, so he was social before even turning one. She also got them on a regular meal/sleep schedule, introduced solids, and is regularly singing and playing with them whenever they're at home. She also tidies up after them (and us). Now that they’re older, she prepares their school lunches, takes our son to school, cleans up and organizes the house (including doing our full family’s laundry twice a week)… until it’s time to pick up our son and take him to after-school activities. After that, she plays with the kids, makes the kids dinner, reads to them when they eat, oversees bath time and pjs – and then they’re clean and ready to hang out with mom and dad! I heard a great nanny helps support child and parent, and she certainly does that. It's hard to believe, but aside from Covid, she has never taken a sick nor a vacation day in six years, and she leaves her personal life at the door when she arrives. She’s also never late. In addition to being dependable, she's very flexible and accommodating. A few years ago, I broke my leg and we consequently needed her for longer hours to watch our super fast-moving toddler. She immediately and voluntarily extended her schedule to nearly 13 hours per weekday + Saturdays.

Our amazing nanny, Fernanda, will be available during the summer holidays (only the months of July and August, while we are out of town). She has been with us for the last year, looking after our 6 year-old daughter and helping us with some housework. Since we only moved to NY over a year ago, she has been extremely helpful to find our way around the city. She has experience working with children of different ages, from young babies to elementary school kids. During the months of the pandemic she helped my daughter with homeworks and online classes. Currently, she picks up my daughter from school and sometimes takes her to after school activities, in addition to preparing her dinner and cleaning around. Fernanda is fully bilingual (English and Spanish), trustworthy, reliable, patient and calm. She sings, reads, plays in the park and dresses up at home. She always finds activities to entertain kids and you will never find them in front of a screen. I cannot recommend her enough

Olga is the most caring, energetic and reliable nanny. She has been with our family for 6 years since my son was 3 months old, and with my daughter as well since she was born. Olga has handled every age with ease, helping get the babies on a sleep schedule, and teach colors, letters, manners, and safety. She keeps the apartment spotless. The love between her and my children is palpable. Parents, teachers, and neighbors always come up to me to tell me how impressed they are with Olga. She has never called in sick, never missed a day of work. She is always available for late nights, early mornings or weekends, even last minute. We are moving out of the city and heartbroken to lose Olga. She has a flexible start date starting on June 27th, the most important thing is that she finds the right family!

Arlene is seeking a weekend nanny position. She is an exceptional person and nanny. We have been extremely fortunate to have had her as our nanny over the past 3 ½ years. We would love to help her find a new family. In addition to being completely trustworthy and reliable, Arlene has an incredible positive energy that she brings to work each day. She is warm and loving and takes care of our 4-year-old child as if she were her own. You won’t find her sitting on a bench at the playground-she is out keeping up with our very active 4-year-old or engaging her in imaginary play. She has also been very helpful in navigating all the stages of early childhood. From infant sleep issues to feeding, toddler tantrums, potty training, and discipline, Arlene has deep experience that lets her find the right solution for each child. She can follow a parent’s lead or take initiative; she is comfortable with both. She is punctual and rarely misses a day of work. On top of everything else, she is incredibly hardworking and conscientious. She keeps our child’s belongings in order and stays on top of the laundry. She has been great at helping with household chores and prepping and cooking delicious, healthy meals. Any family that hires Arlene will be very lucky. Unfortunately, due her school schedule, Arlene is no longer available to be our daughter’s nanny.
