Nannies in Westchester

I am so thrilled to recommend our former nanny, Sophie, who was an integral part of our family for 12 ½ years, through 2023. We would have loved for Sophie to stay with us forever, but by that time my son was off to college and my daughter was 14 and no longer required the same level of hands-on care. Sophie is truly exceptional, and my whole family absolutely adores her. I don’t know if words can fully express just how special she is. During her many years with our family, she provided our children, and all of us, with an extraordinary level of care, love, and support, and she will always be an important part of our family.
From the moment Sophie joined our family, it was evident that she possessed a rare combination of warmth, dedication and professionalism. Her genuine love for children shone through in everything she did. She established a strong bond with each of our children, Jack and Ava, understanding their needs, interests and personalities. Jack and Ava adore Sophie, and we witnessed firsthand the positive impact she had on their emotional and social development.
Sophie was wonderful with our children at every stage of their lives, from the toddler years through the crazy teenage years. She is extremely active and loved being involved in their activities, while also proactively planning playdates and making sure they stayed active by going to the park and planning fun activities around the city. She consistently went above and beyond to plan educational and fun outings, crafts and games tailored to their interests and each developmental stage. I can’t count the number of times other moms and nannies have told me how wonderful Sophie is. She helped create a wonderful social circle for our kids, and all of Jack and Ava’s friends love her. Their parents fully trust her with their children as well.
In addition to Sophie’s nurturing nature, she is extremely organized and great at multitasking. She seamlessly managed our daily routines, including preparing nutritious meals for the kids, doing laundry, supervising homework, keeping the house tidy and, when they were younger, ensuring nap and bedtime schedules were maintained. I would often arrive home to find Sophie studying flash cards with the kids, playing catch, teaching Ava how to bake or doing something else to keep them engaged and learning.
Sophie also has excellent communication skills. She always maintained open and honest communication with us, regularly providing updates on Jack and Ava’s activities, progress, friendships and any concerns that arose. We always valued her insight and knew that she genuinely had our children’s best interests at heart.
Sophie is also someone you can always count on. She consistently demonstrated incredible reliability and trustworthiness. She was ALWAYS punctual, extremely dependable, flexible and devoted to our entire family. We had complete peace of mind leaving our children in Sophie’s care every day, which as a parent is truly invaluable.
It is rare to find someone like Sophie, and I count my blessings that she was part of our family for so many years. She played such an important role in helping us raise our children, and we are incredibly grateful to her. She will always be a part of our family.
I originally found Sophie through Mommy Bites, and her previous family, with whom she is still very close, raved about her as well and was just as sad to see her leave. She is AMAZING, and I can say without hesitation that hiring Sophie will be one of the best decisions you will ever make.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to talk about Sophie. I could not recommend her more highly. She is truly a gem!

Hi, our former nanny Charmaine is looking for a new nanny gig. She was our nanny since our baby was about 4 months old and took great care of her. We felt very comfortable with her handling a newborn, and she prefers babies, but she also has plenty experience with older babies and children too. She is open to all ages.

Our circumstances changed recently to where we don’t need someone full time, otherwise she would still be working with us. She is a mom of 6 herself so she has plenty of experience! But her children are all adults so no concerns about her having to take care of them too.

I loved that she got the baby out of the apartment everyday, taking her to the library, on walks, etc. She is looking for something in Manhattan, the Bronx, or lower Westchester

She is a great nanny and we highly recommend her.

Norissa has been with our family since our son was six months old, and she has been an incredibly loving, nurturing, and dependable presence in his life. From the very beginning, it was clear that she has a genuine passion for working with children and a natural ability to connect with them. Her warmth, patience, playful spirit, and understanding of child-development have made her an invaluable part of our family. Our son absolutely adores her and runs to the door as soon as she would arrive.
Norissa combines a strong understanding of early childhood development a with a thoughtful responsive approach to caregiving. She has supported our son through each stage of his development, encouraging his independence, and emerging skills in a way that feels both natural and engaging.
She is exceptionally good with children and has a wonderful ability to meet them where they are developmentally. She has also helped us navigate several challenging developmental and parenting concerns, including a significant aversion to solid foods and sleep difficulties, with bringing a thoughtful, knowledgeable, and supportive perspective.
Having had the privilege of seeing Norissa care for our son on a daily basis, I can confidently say that she is an exceptionally engaged and dedicated caregiver. She is fully present and attentive, making the most of every opportunity to connect with him through playing, singing and reading together. She regularly took him on outings to parks and playgrounds, classes, and has even helped him build friendships with other children in our neighborhood by arranging playdates.
In addition to her outstanding childcare skills, Norissa has been a tremendous help in maintaining our son’s daily routines and keeping his environment organized. She assists with meal preparation, keeps his spaces tidy and organized, and approaches these responsibilities with care and consistency. She is proactive, resourceful, and attentive to the many details that help a household run smoothly, allowing us to feel confident that our son is receiving excellent care while his needs are being thoughtfully managed.
Norissa is also exceptionally reliable, professional, and flexible. She has consistently accommodated our changing schedules and has been willing to provide additional hours when needed. She communicates well, demonstrates sound judgment, and approaches her responsibilities with a strong level of competence and commitment.
I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is a rare combination of warmth, professionalism, developmental knowledge, and genuine affection for children. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as such an important part of our son’s early years, and I know that any family would be lucky to welcome her into their home. She would be a tremendous asset to a family looking for a caring, knowledgeable, dependable, and truly dedicated childcare professional.

Sarah was our nanny for seven years from 2018-2025 and she is looking for a new family. She worked full-time with our family until we were ready to move on to part-time care. She is reliable, caring, energetic and responsible and helped us with getting our two kids to and from school and activities, arranging play dates, doing laundry, cooking and many other household chores and errands. She is willing to work anywhere from southern Connecticut through the Scarsdale/Mamaroneck area.

I highly recommend Micshelle as a nanny! I have known her for over six years, and throughout that time, she has consistently proven herself to be trustworthy, dependable, caring, and responsible.

She has been wonderful with my 8-year-old twin girls. She is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring, and I feel completely comfortable knowing that my daughters are in her care. She interacts with them warmly while also making sure they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

Having known Micshelle personally for six years gives me an added level of confidence in recommending her. She is someone I know and trust, and I would not hesitate to have her care for my children. Any family would be fortunate to have Micshelle as their nanny!

I’m posting on behalf of our former nanny, Desmarie, who is looking for her next position in lower Westchester. She was with us for almost 3 years, first caring for my son when he was 6 months old and then transitioning to caring for two when my daughter was born. She is exceptionally skilled with infants and is ideally looking for a baby and the opportunity to grow with a family.

She is a career nanny, with 20+ years of experience. She is patient, reliable, loving, and deeply attentive – and never on her phone! She brings a very calm presence to our household. She is incredibly trustworthy, hardworking, and deeply caring.

She is currently seeking her next full-time role in lower Westchester, hoping to start end of October or beginning of November. Happy to chat with you if interested. Thanks!

Wonderful Full-Time Nanny Available

Our former nanny, Latoya, is looking for a new full-time family, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Latoya was with our family for six years, starting when our oldest daughter was 2 and our second daughter was about to be born. She ultimately cared for all three of our children, including our youngest son from infancy.

Latoya is smart, kind, loving, hardworking, incredibly even-keeled, and simply an upstanding human being. She loved and cared for our children as if they were her own, and we always had 100% confidence that they were safe and well cared for with her.

She is wonderful with infants and older children alike and is very capable managing a busy household and multiple children. She cooked for the kids (and often for us!), handled their laundry, managed multiple school/activity pick-ups and drop-offs, and is extremely comfortable navigating all forms of transportation around NYC.

The only reason we parted ways is that our family’s needs shifted to part-time, while Latoya is looking for a full-time position. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her as part of our family and would be thrilled to see her find another wonderful family.

If interested, please contact Latoya directly. I am also very happy to provide a personal reference.

It is with great pleasure and heartfelt gratitude that I recommend Michelle for a nanny position. Michelle cared for my daughter in the Upper West Side from the time she was one until she turned four, and she was an indispensable part of our lives during those formative years.

As a busy working mother, I relied heavily on Michelle’s expertise, reliability, and unwavering dedication. She is an exceptionally professional and caring individual who approaches childcare with both warmth and a deep sense of responsibility. Beyond her professional capabilities, Michelle quickly became a trusted member of our family and a dear friend. Her genuine love for my daughter and her ability to nurture her development made our daily lives run smoothly and gave me complete peace of mind while I was at work.

We were so sad to lose her when we relocated that we tried to convince her to move with us, but her strong family commitments kept her in New York City. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her in their home.

Our wonderful nanny, Karen, is seeking a full-time position starting ASAP (M-F +/- 40 hours/week).
She’s been with us for about two years. She’s an amazing nanny, great with children! She taught our daughter to walk, talk, count, say her ABC’s etc.
Her responsibilities were primarily related to our daughter: food preparation, her dishes, bathing, laundry, as well as taking her to local classes:
Gymboree, Music, Storytime, Side by Side, Doctor’s appointments, etc. She does it all!
Karen has been an integral part of our family. And even stayed with us to ensure our daughter has adjusted to school. This goes to show her wonderful character. But most importantly, Karen is a warm, patient, forward-thinking nanny who loves our daughter like her own. She has a gift with children and is both fun-loving and firm.
Her ideal employment would be with a baby or young child. Karen is a US citizen with an adult daughter. She is available to start this ASAP, but can be flexible regarding the start date.

Fantastic newborn/ baby nanny available! Kerri joined us when our 4th was just 2 weeks old. I needed someone confident with a newborn as I managed my other kids’ schedules. Our littlest was not the easiest in the beginning. She constantly wanted to be rocked and held. Kerri did this without complaint.

I am breastfeeding and our baby decided very early on that bottles were out so we’ve managed a schedule of making sure I’m always back within that 1.5 to 2-hour window and Kerri has done wonderfully at biding time for me when I needed that extra 15 minutes. She has a bubbly personality and really has a great touch with babies. Not everyone does well with newborns but Kerri was undeterred and unphased (even through the colicky phase). We just got notified that my 4-year-old got into her preschool program and we will need much less hours this school year. Kerri is looking for a position Monday-Thursday and she’s happy to fill whatever hours in those days.

Happy to chat more.
