Nannies in Queens

Our daughter is starting daycare this fall, and our wonderful nanny is looking for a new full-time role! Barbara has worked as a nanny for more than 20 years, and has experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and multiples. She is absolutely everything we wanted in a nanny: kind, loving, attentive, proactive, punctual, responsible, and reliable beyond measure.

She brings a warmth and happiness with her that infiltrates our home. She truly goes above and beyond to care for our daughter. An illustrative example of that is how Barbara handled a months-long situation where my daughter refused to nap anywhere but her stroller. Without hesitation, Barbara strolled her around for 2-3 hours each day, refusing a break, because she insisted that our daughter’s rest was that important to her. That’s who Barbara is.

Right now, Barbara’s schedule with us is 9-5 pm Monday through Friday, but she’s always flexible. When we’ve needed her to come earlier or stay later she is always happily willing to accommodate us. She also babysits for us on nights and weekends, which is a huge help!

I am happy to answer any and all questions and can provide multiple references from her prior families. Please reach out!

Our lovely nanny, Afyia, is looking for another family to grow with. We did a nanny-share with another family, and she has been with us since our babies were just 3 months old. Time flies, so our babies are 2 and about to head to preschool. Afyia came to us with over 10 years’ experience, which is 100% what we needed as first-time parents – a nanny with solid professional experience caring for more than one child. We were amazed that she was able to get both of our babies on a consistent nap schedule immediately, so they’re great sleepers. She has a gentle, sweet, calming energy that our baby could feel from the first time they met. Our babies both started crying, and the four of us parents looked over at Afyia. She just Afyia picked them both up, and they stopped crying instantly. It was everything we needed to know. I work from home all the time, and she always brings a quiet, calming presence to our home.

What makes her different? One thing that I really loved is that, while so many nannies (we are all susceptible) are on their phones all the time in the park, Afyia is so present. We’ve had other parents from the neighborhood, the librarian, and the teacher of a local music class approach us on the street to tell us how great Afyia is, so even though we didn’t often get to see her in action, we completely trust her judgement.

Even now that our little guy is full of non-stop toddler energy and no-no-no, she is so good with him. She taught him to say, “please”! (sometimes). She read him books, plays with him, and takes him out to the library and to the many parks in our area every day.

Bonus: She is highly professional, extremely reliable and has never once been late in all the months she’s been with us. If you’re a working parent, you’ll understand how very important this is.

We are relocating after nearly seven years, and have a nanny that we cannot recommend her highly enough.

She joined us when our daughter was a newborn and has been a steady, trusted, part of our household ever since. Over those years, she has demonstrated skill, intuition, and dedication at every stage of our daughter’s development — from infant care to toddlerhood to the busy, full world of a seven-year-old.

She is organized and reliable, communicative and collaborative with parents, imaginative and engaged with children, and unshakably calm in any situation. She has always come to us as a true partner — proactively sharing updates, flagging concerns thoughtfully, and has our child’s safety and wellbeing as her priority.

Beyond her capabilities, she is a wonderful person — kind, trustworthy, and genuinely devoted to the children in her care. Our daughter adores her, and letting her go is one of the hardest parts of this move, and we do so only knowing that another family is about to receive something very special.

Working with Nerisia has been an absolute dream for the last 3.5 years. Nerisia approaches every day with kindness, energy, and adventure. She is fantastic with newborns and has supported our daughter’s development from 6 weeks through all of her major milestones. She has organized her meals every day, done laundry each week for both of our kids, and has curated exciting daily adventures around New York City. She has organized a wonderful playgroup for our daughter and even arranged and decorated her birthday parties. Whether it was picnics, playdates, museums, or rainy day art activities, Nerisia has always ensured that our daughter’s day was structured and engaging.

In addition to the joy and warmth that she brings to her interactions with children, Nerisia is a real professional. She is an excellent communicator, always ensuring that we are on the same page about instilling strong values and manners in our children, and demonstrating them herself. She has gone out of her way to help educate our children, helping our first grader with homework and teaching our three-year-old her letters. In addition to being truly devoted to our children, Nerisia is also extremely thoughtful, reliable, and always on time!! Our whole family sees Nerisia and her family as a part of our own, and she will be long after she finds another family to work with, just as she continues to be in the lives of the families that she has worked with in the past.

We would be thrilled to answer any questions about Nerisia.

Our beloved former nanny of nine years, Anita O’Reilly, is looking for full-time employment. Anita was hard working, conscientious, affectionate, and a true partner in raising our children. She managed both kids’ school and activity schedules, and she easily handled both children at home, out at playgrounds, at indoor facilities when the weather is bad, and getting to and from all of these places. She was always punctual and is a reliable employee.

Most of all, it was a blessing to be able to leave the house every morning knowing that our children would be with someone who will treat them as her own children. My son said all the time that he wanted Anita to stay at our house and spend the night; he thought of her as part of the family and couldn’t understand why she had to go somewhere else once I got home each day. He even coined the term “mommynita” to refer to the two of us. When my husband arrived home before I did, he always commented to me later that evening how happy he was with the way Anita interacted with the kids. Both sets of grandparents made similar comments, as did our neighbors.

I am happy to speak by phone with anyone who is considering hiring Anita to care for their child or children. We want to do whatever we can to help her find a new family to work for!

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, starting with our oldest at just 6 months old, and caring for our youngest from infancy as well. She is fluent in Spanish, incredibly warm and affectionate, and our kids absolutely adore her.

A few things that make Tita special:
– Trusted with our children since they were tiny infants, through every milestone — gentle, attentive, and endlessly patient from day one
– Warm, social, and a natural community-builder — she helped organize a local nanny group and is loved by other nannies and families alike
– 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.

Our former nanny, Aleia, is looking for full-time employment beginning this fall. We first met Aleia in 2017 when she was working in her first job as a teacher at our older son’s daycare, where her warmth and skill with children immediately impressed us. When we needed childcare for our baby, we knew she would be perfect for our family.

Aleia cared for both of our children since 2020 and was fantastic. She’s energetic, and has a special talent for working with babies and toddlers. Her patience seems endless, and she brings positive energy to our home.

What sets Aleia apart is how engaged she is with children. She’s constantly thinking of new activities, whether it’s trips to the playground, library story time, or playdates at home. She kept us well-informed throughout the day with updates and photos.

Aleia has been reliable and flexible. She rarely took time off, was almost never sick, and was more than willing to accommodate our changing schedules when work demands require it. She’s also open to occasional travel with a family if needed.

We were sad to lose Aleia, but both of our children have reached ages where they no longer need the same level of care. We cannot recommend her highly enough – any family would be lucky to have someone so dedicated, caring, and naturally gifted with children.

Mimi first started with us when our daughter was 5 months old and she immediately became one of the family. She has many years experience and is happy to take my daughter out to new places and has explored many of our local parks and suggested local classes for her to take which have all helped her development greatly.

My daughter was always on top of her milestones and I credit it to Mimi teaching her how to move and play from the time she was small. In addition to taking care of my daughter, she also helps around the house and always cleans up my daughter’s room.

She is always on time and will come early or stay late if we need. She would be the perfect nanny for a newborn and can give them the best head start, teaching them everything from how to climb to how to talk. She will take on whatever activities my daughter wants whether it’s reading books or building with blocks or coloring. She is always recommending things that have worked for her in the past which makes life as a parent so much easier.

On top of all that, she knows how much I love getting pictures and updates from their day together and sends both throughout the day so I always feel included in even though I am working. She is also very friendly with my dog.

She currently works in Forest Hills is available to work in Manhattan/Queens/Brooklyn.

Lina is AMAZING. She has been crucial in my child’s development during the half a year she helped to make her blossom. The only reason we are parting with her is because our schedule changed, and we are heartbroken to have to let her go. Our entire family loves Lina. She is caring, thoughtful, mindful, punctual, patient and the list goes on! I was particularly grateful for her ability to ensure we were on the same page by asking questions to avoid misunderstandings.
I know my baby is in good hands with her not just because she literally squeals with joy and rushes to meet her when she comes to the door, but because I have seen Lina adapt to her needs as my baby went from fragile infant to curious toddler.
Any child and family who have her in her life are assured a ray of sunshine even in the darkest of days. We are happy to talk to you if you have any questions about our experience with her.

Our previous nanny, Delia, is one of a kind. She took care of our two sons for almost 3 years – started when our oldest was 10 months old and then took my second son when he was 10 weeks old.

Delia is extremely reliable, always on time, professional, and a heart of gold. She is extremely experienced with children (she has adult children of her own (and a grandchild) and somehow is so warm, but also strong (the children love her, and also respect her). She balanced the two kids perfectly – we now have a third and I wouldn’t hesitate having her watch all three full time. Delia watched the kids in the apartment, but also went out and about too so her and the kids could get a lot of outside time. She’ll follow whatever guidelines parents give!

We moved states, which is the only reason we don’t work together anymore – but if we were near each other, I would hire Delia again in a heart beat. We love her and any family will be absolutely lucky to have her. For context, she lives in Westchester County, so Westchester preferred, but is open to Bronx/Queens, Manhattan, and then Brooklyn.

We had the pleasure of having Dian Grace Powell as our 24-hour baby nurse for almost 4 months while caring for our twins, and we could not recommend her more highly. She is professionally trained, extremely energetic, organized, reliable, and trustworthy. She is excellent at scheduling and keeping everything running smoothly, while also being incredibly gentle, caring, and loving with the babies. She is fun and engaging with them, moves quickly and efficiently, and handles everything with confidence and calm. Caring for twins is no easy task, but she managed both babies exceptionally well and was truly wonderful to have in our home. We are so grateful for all her help and care, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a dedicated, capable, and loving baby nurse.

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.

Paola was with our family for over a year, and we’re only saying goodbye because our two-year-old is starting preschool. We’d have kept her otherwise.

She cared for our three children- her main focus was our baby boy during the day, and she took on all three, including our two older girls, in the evenings once they were home from school. Juggling that range of ages is not easy but she managed always with a smile and seemingly unlimited energy.

What stood out most to us was the bond she formed with our son. It happened remarkably fast, and for a long stretch she was the only caregiver he would accept. That says more than anything else we could write here.

She’s flexible, kind, and endlessly patient. In our experience she was completely trustworthy, and we never had concerns about our children’s wellbeing in her care.

If you’re looking for someone loving and reliable you should consider Paola.

I’m so happy to recommend our former nanny, Bibi, who will be available starting in September! Our family was incredibly lucky to have Bibi care for our two boys (now 3 and 1) over the past couple of years. She became such an important and trusted part of our family, and our boys absolutely adore her. She is warm, loving, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children in her care.

One of the things we appreciated most about Bibi was how proactive she was. She was always thinking about ways to engage the boys, support their development, and make their days fun and enriching. She is very outgoing and loves getting out of the house with the kids, whether that meant going to the park, out on a picnic, playdates in the neighborhood, or simply finding new things to explore. She has a wonderful instinct for keeping children happy, engaged, and well cared for.

Bibi is also exceptionally dependable and hardworking. We always felt completely confident that the boys were in great hands. She was organized, responsible, attentive to all the details of their care, and incredibly flexible when our schedules required it. Most importantly, Bibi is someone we trusted completely with our children. She brought so much warmth and positivity into our home, and we feel very fortunate to have had her with our family. Any family would be extremely lucky to have Bibi caring for their children, and I would recommend her without hesitation.

If you’re looking for a loving, dependable, proactive nanny who will truly become part of your family, I can’t recommend Bibi highly enough. Please reach out to her directly at 347-277-1212.

A Truly Exceptional Nanny

We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Aurélie as part of our family for the past 13 years. She joined us when our first child was an infant, and over the years she has helped raise both of our children into the kind, independent, wonderful 13- and 11-year-olds they are today.

Aurélie has cared for our son and daughter through every stage, from infancy and toddlerhood through elementary school and now the junior high years. What makes her so special is her ability to evolve with them. She has always understood what they need at each stage and has found the right balance of nurturing, structure, independence, and accountability.

She is calm, loving, grounded, completely dependable, and incredibly intuitive. Our children absolutely adore her. She has become my daughter’s best friend and confidante, and my son trusts her implicitly and listens to her. She is always in their corner, while also knowing when to hold them accountable and give them the guidance they need.

Aurélie grew up in Paris and has taught both of our children French from a very young age. She taught them to read and write in French, and last year, when we traveled to Paris together for the first time, our children were complimented on their accents and fluency. Watching that come full circle was incredibly special to us.

As the children grew, her role naturally changed. When they were little, she was the nanny who spent hours at the playground, arranged playdates, and brought just the right amount of energy and attention to their days. As they entered school, she became an important part of their education, helping with homework, preparing for tests, encouraging reading, developing good study habits, and helping them stay organized. She coordinates sports and activities, makes sure they have time to read, and has always created a sense of structure while allowing them to become increasingly independent.

She also takes care of so much of what keeps our household running smoothly, from the children’s laundry to preparing healthy, balanced dinners and keeping things orderly. She is incredibly flexible when plans change, anticipates what needs to be done, and can always be counted on.

Most importantly, she has been there for our family through every milestone and transition. She knows when the children need support, when they need space, and when they need a little extra encouragement. She has an extraordinary ability to grow alongside the children in her care and to remain the right person for them at every age.

After 13 years, Aurélie is so much more than our nanny. She is a trusted member of our family who has played an enormous role in raising our children. We could not recommend her more highly to another family looking for someone who will truly invest in their children, care for them wholeheartedly, and become an important and lasting part of their lives.

Maria has been caring for my son for a year and has become a valued and trusted part of our family.

She joined us when he was four months old, caring for him during the most critical parts of development. She is constantly speaking to him in two languages, reading to him and playing with him. I know it was key in his impressive language and critical thinking skills.

She also takes him outside every day. She never stays inside for herself, making sure to prioritize his wellbeing. On bad weather days, she still took him to our complex playroom or just around the building so he could have some socialization. She is familiar with every playground, park & library in the area and makes sure he is having fun. It’s so great to see while I’m at work. He is incredibly social now and plays so well with others, and I know Maria was a huge part of that. She makes nanny friends and it has helped make him friends in the area too.

She also cooks or prepares him breakfast, lunch and snack every day. She prioritizes healthy, balanced meals, along with physical activity. He is never hungry! I always come home to a clean kitchen as well. She does is laundry and keeps his play spaces so clean, which has been a massive help as a working mom. She’s also exceptionally punctual in addition to being extremely flexible and understanding if I am running a few minutes late.

She truly loves my son as a family member. It makes me feel so much better as a mom to know how loved he is 40+ hours a week while I’m at work.
We are moving to the suburbs, which is the reason we have to part ways full-time. We hope Maria can still be part of our lives and would definitely use her for babysitting.

I’m happy to recommend Yubelkis Peralta to families looking for a dependable, caring, and experienced nanny. Due to a change in her current family’s childcare needs and schedule, she is looking for a new family where she can continue doing what she loves.

She has more than 10 years of childcare experience, including experience caring for infants and newborns. She is responsible, loving, patient, punctual, and professional, and she takes the responsibility of caring for children very seriously.

In addition to her extensive childcare experience, she is a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and is certified in CPR and First Aid, which provides an additional level of knowledge and preparedness when caring for children.

She is looking for a family who values someone dependable, nurturing, experienced, and committed to providing a safe and caring environment for their children.

I would be happy to speak with interested families and provide a personal reference based on my experience knowing her.

Please feel free to reach out for additional information or to be connected with her.
