I am an honest, responsible, friendly, hardworking, and punctual nanny who is passionate about caring for children. I am loving, patient, and caring, and I provide children with affection, understanding, and a safe, nurturing environment. I enjoy organizing educational games, singing songs, reading stories, drawing, and engaging children in age-appropriate activities that encourage their creativity, language development, motor skills, and social skills. I am organized and attentive to children’s daily routines, including meals, naps, hygiene, and playtime. I am also communicative and committed to keeping parents informed about their children’s activities, needs, and well-being. My goal is to help every child feel loved, safe, happy, and supported while they learn and grow.
After more than six incredible years with our family, we’re looking for a wonderful new family for our nanny, Yaya. ❤️
This is honestly one of the hardest parts of our move from New York to Europe. Yaya has been with us since our middle daughter was a newborn and has become part of our family. We truly love her like a family member. If we could bring her with us, we would in a heartbeat, but she needs to stay in New York with her family.
I truly can’t say enough good things about her. She is unbelievably reliable, calm, loving, and capable. Over the years she has cared for our three daughters, managed school drop-offs and pick-ups, cooked for the family, organized birthday parties, and helped keep our household running. She somehow always made everything look effortless.
So many parents have stopped me over the years at playgrounds or activities to tell me, “Your nanny is amazing,” after watching her handle all three girls with so much patience, warmth, and confidence. It always made me smile because we already knew how lucky we were.
More than anything, we’re hoping to find a family who will value and appreciate her as much as we have. She deserves a kind family who will treat her well, because she has given our family so much love and care.
She’s looking for a full-time nanny position in the New York area, starting end October.
If you think your family might be a good fit, please email me at sophie.kahn@gmail.com with the subject line “Yaya Nanny.” I’ll happily make the introduction and obviously provide a glowing reference.
Dorothy is a wonderful addition to the family! She has provided so much love and dedication to our child. She really cares about our child and my child loves her. We are so lucky to have Dorothy. Dorothy takes our child outside to play, arranges playdates with our children and plays with her in our home. She is dedicated, hardworking and caring. Our child is going to preschool 2 days a week which is why Dorothy is looking for work on those days. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
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!
Our circumstances have changed, and we are very sad to part ways with Lupe, but we share our highest recommendation for Lupe as a full-time nanny. She worked with us for the past three years, caring for our two daughters, now 3 years old and 9 months old.
Lupe has been an exceptional caregiver from day one. Her daily responsibilities included preparing meals for the girls, managing their laundry, keeping their spaces clean and organized, and — something we especially valued — enforcing a no-screen-time policy in favor of hands-on, developmentally engaging activities. She was endlessly creative and excelled exceptionally in this regard, regularly planning indoor and outdoor activities including art, building blocks, dolls, stuffed animals, music, singing, books, library visits, museum visits, playgrounds, park outings and playdates that kept our daughters curious and active.
Lupe’s defining quality is the genuine love and dedication she brought to her role. She cared for our girls as if they were her own. Our eldest daughter, who has always been particular about who she trusts, attached to Lupe almost immediately — a testament to the warmth and security Lupe provides. Lupe was also unfailingly punctual and reliable, and she went well beyond her normal hours whenever we needed her. During my postpartum recovery, she came in every day to help put our toddler to sleep and worked weekends without hesitation, all so our family could get the support we needed during that time.
Additionally, Lupe has a wonderful personality and is a truly good person. She is warm, energetic, and highly sociable. Lupe’s personality set a loving tone for the character of our household. She is loved by our respective families, by the nannies who care for our daughter’s friends, and by the staff and teachers at our daughter’s school. Lupe is leaving our family only because our circumstances have changed, as we will require less childcare going forward. Lupe’s departure has left a hole in our lives and household, and she will be dearly missed.
We recommend Lupe without reservation to any family seeking a loving, dependable, and genuinely skilled caregiver. She would be an asset to any household fortunate enough to have her.
Please feel free to contact us directly if you would like to discuss her further.
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.
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.
Helping our amazing nanny find a new family 💜
Hi moms and dads! We’re helping our nanny, Ingrid (GG), find her next family as our childcare needs have changed. She is looking for a full-time nanny position (40–50 hours/week).
GG has been incredibly reliable and dependable. She was always on time, usually arriving at least 10 minutes early and waiting in the lobby. She was also very flexible with our schedule. Whenever we needed her earlier, later, or had a schedule change, she was always willing to help and never said no.
Since GG started with us, she has become so much more than her nanny. They truly became best friends. They’ve shared so many special moments together, from playing in the snow and swimming in the lake to going to playgrounds and the library and helping our daughter make new friends.
One of my favorite things was their morning hair routine before school. They would put on their favorite music, GG would do her hair while our daughter did her dolls’ hair, and when GG finished, she would look in the mirror and proudly say, “I look beautiful!” 🥹💜
GG introduced her to Disney and My Little Pony, which she is now obsessed with! Wherever they went, there was always a pony or a whole bag of them! 🦄 She also helped her learn to share and make friends. It was really hard at first, but eventually she would leave the house already planning which toys she wanted to bring for a specific friend.
GG has also been wonderful with potty training, routines, manners, and encouraging independence. She even helped us transition from using the stroller to walking, which made such a difference. We can now take the subway with her without any problems!
We are so grateful for all the love, patience, creativity, and fun GG has brought into our daughter’s life. We are sad our childcare needs have changed, but we know another family will be very lucky to have her. 💜
If you’re looking for a loving, reliable, and experienced nanny, feel free to DM me or my husband. We’d be happy to connect you with GG!
P.S. Here’s her Care.com profile with more details and reviews from other parents:https://www.care.com/p/ingridg729/cc
Celia has been with us for two years, caring for our son from infancy into toddlerhood. Her previous roles included 10 years with one family and seven with another, reflecting the lasting relationships she builds. She remains in touch with her first family and was even invited to the college graduation of the first child she cared for after all these years. Two other families even tried to persuade her to move with them to New Jersey and Brooklyn so they could continue working with her.
A few of the things we have especially valued about her:
• She is incredibly safety-conscious and attentive and is proactive about bringing anything new or concerning to our attention.
• She is genuinely engaged with our son throughout the day. She reads with him, sings, plays ball, does activities and gets down on the floor to play. She is never on her phone unless she is coordinating something for him.
• She knows Manhattan incredibly well, especially the Upper East and Upper West Sides and is great about finding parks, libraries, activities and other places for kids to explore. She also coordinates playdates and has helped our son build his own little community in the neighborhood.
• She is exceptionally dependable. She has always been very reliable (and flexible!) with our schedule, especially when last minute things pop up for me or regular date nights and being able to accommodate.
• She prepares meals for our son and is comfortable handling the everyday things that make a household with a young child run more smoothly, including his laundry, dishes, cleaning floors, sanitizing toys and keeping his spaces neat.
• She respects the way we choose to parent, follows our routines and is very consistent about communicating with us throughout the day.
Celia is experienced, capable, professional and truly cares about the children she looks after. Our change is entirely because my work schedule is changing, and if our circumstances were different, we would happily continue having her with us full-time. She will need to be paid on the books.
I’ll be moving to part-time work this fall, so she is available for a full-time position or a nanny share with us. We could offer 10 hours per week, with another family providing at least 30. An October start would work well, but we’re flexible if the right opportunity comes along sooner or later. My work hours are also flexible, so we can accommodate another family’s schedule. Our priority is helping her find a family who will truly value the care and commitment she brings to her work.

Our wonderful former nanny, Yvonne Brissett, is looking for her next long-term family. Yvonne was a true partner to my husband and me in raising our child. She made it possible for us to balance demanding careers with parenting—giving us total peace of mind that our little one was safe, happy, and thriving.
From day one, Yvonne made our child her top priority. She became deeply attuned to their needs and encouraged independence, curiosity, and learning. She celebrated milestones, engaged in real (not baby talk) conversations, and created a joyful, loving environment.
Beyond her exceptional care, Yvonne was a joy to have in our home. She’s energetic, funny, and professional. She traveled with us frequently—both with our child and when we needed care while traveling solo.
A few additional highlights:
20+ years of experience as a career nanny, with a background in hospitality—she’s warm, polished, and communicative
Extremely reliable and punctual—critical for us with our long and often unpredictable work hours
Flexible and accommodating—always willing to stay late or adjust plans on short notice
Goes above and beyond on household tasks—handled all child-related chores and more (dishes, tidying, grocery runs, tracking supplies like diapers and wipes)
Development-focused—suggested toys and activities to support learning, read regularly with our child, and encouraged language development from an early stage
An excellent communicator with family and community—kept grandparents updated with photos and FaceTimes, and built friendly relationships with others in our daily life like our housekeeper and doormen
Yvonne is hoping to find a loving, long-term family. Please feel free to reach out to her directly—or I’m happy to answer any questions or chat further about our experience.
We no longer need full time help, so unfortunately are parting ways with our wonderful nanny, Hermi. She has worked with us for 3 months, but has quickly made an impression and easily got a handle on our 9 month old\’s routine and needs. She is so sweet and loving with our baby, she sings and dances, is energetic, engaging, cautious, and protective while out and about – you will never have to worry about your baby\’s safety while in her care. Our baby absolutely lights up when she arrives for the day and tries to follow her out the door when she leaves. I always hear them laughing and playing in the other room and it\’s been so sweet to see their bond grow, even in this short amount of time that she has worked with us. Hermi is great with babies, caring, and eager to please, and she always leaves our home neater than when she found it. She has handled everything from taking our daughter to classes and playdates, coaching me through starting solids, shopping for and making our daughter\’s food, doing our daughter\’s laundry, and alerting me to things that need attention. I would love to find her a great family to work with. She is based in Jersey City but commutes to us in Manhattan, so she is open to a variety of locations. Please reach out to me if you have any questions, or feel free to get in touch with her directly.
Pema is an incredible asset to any family. She radiates warmth with a bright smile and calm demeanor that immediately resonated with our daughter. Pema is fun, imaginative, highly communicative and organized and she manages to balance soft kindness with firmness and structure. Pema and our daughter are always having fun together, constantly playing, giggling and truly enjoying one another\’s company. We were particularly impressed with Pema\’s proactivity in organizing our daughter\’s schedule, arranging play dates, trips to art galleries or museums, she has a finger on the pulse of new and interesting spaces for kids and is always befriending other nannies within our community and making new connections. Pema is an exceptional communicator, she sends daily picture updates of what they\’ve been up to. Our daughter arrives home each evening in a wonderful mood. Pema is also a safe and confident driver, which we found very helpful in taking the children to various activities, and school pick up. Pema is incredibly trustworthy and as a mother herself she\’s sensitive, loving and deeply adores children. Pema came highly recommended through friends of ours and has been a joy to work with for the past 12 months, sadly with Kindergarten beginning in the fall, we have to now say goodbye. Pema has been an undeniable asset to our family and we know she will be to yours. We feel strongly about helping her find another wonderful, loving family and are happy to chat anytime to answer any additional questions. She\’s looking for a full time role to commence immediately.
I am pleased to write this letter in strong support of Dianne Gopee for a nanny position. What began as a chance encounter at a playground grew into our most valued working relationship for our family. Starting out with our two young children, Dianne had to multitask and manage difficult situations ranging from child sickness to varying school schedules, all which she handled with skill and grace.
As our children got older, Dianne’s role evolved and developed into what could be described as a House Manager. The kids’ schedules became more complicated with sports, school and tutoring and Dianne took on more responsibility with food shopping, cooking and cleaning and continued to demonstrate immense reliability and strong work ethic.
I have witnessed firsthand Dianne’s dedication and professionalism. Others have too, frequently other families would approach her to work for them and lamented the fact that they could not find someone who measured up to Dianne’s caring, kindness and enthusiasm.
Dianne has consistently demonstrated quick problem-solving and attention to detail. Regardless of the situation her thoughtfulness and personable nature puts everyone around her at ease. I have no doubt that Dianne will contribute greatly to any family, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need anything further.
Tshering is a gem of a nanny – the kind parents come up to you at the playground to tell you how great she is! We wanted to find a nanny that was not only reliable and trustworthy, but also incredibly playful, engaging, resourceful, intelligent, and kind – and we found all that and more in Tshering. She’s joyful and engaging with children, engaging them constantly throughout the day with fun chatter and conversations, silly games, made up activities from every day items, and adventures out of the house to the playground or classes. She’s empathetic and kind with babies and toddlers especially, helping them through frustrations, getting them to play safely and thoughtfully with other kids, and adjusting her approach based on their needs. She’s also so educational with them, teaching our kids letters and numbers in multiple languages much earlier than I thought possible! She’s a true parenting partner, endlessly helpful and thoughtful in supporting our family’s needs (from tidying to meal prep to kid organization to activities) but most notably in truly sharing in love for the children to nurture them and help them grow.
We’ve worked with Tshering for 4.5 years full-time and we’d love for her to find a wonderful new family. She’s available 3 days/week (she’s working with a former family 2 days/week but is flexible on what days), ideally hours 8-4 or 9-5 in Manhattan and Queens. We couldn’t recommend her more!
Lorna is a wonderful, caring, responsible nanny who worked with us for 12 years — since my youngest was 3 months old. Lorna is the rare person who loves her job, and she has been great with babies, toddlers, and each age and stage of my kids’ lives. She connects with children and gives them comfort and care but does not spoil them. Further, I trust Lorna completely, so working with her gives me a true sense of security. Her next family is a lucky family!
I am pleased to offer a reference for my current professional nanny Mel with over 24 years of hands-on experience caring for children ranging in age from as young as six weeks old through the early teen years.
As a mother to adult children of her own, she understands deeply the trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care—and she honors that responsibility with her full commitment, heart, and professionalism.
Throughout her career, she has nurtured children in every stage of development, creating loving, structured environments that promote emotional well-being, independence, and growth. She takes pride in not only providing attentive, compassionate care, but also being a positive influence and an active educator in their daily lives.
Mel was with us for a few years and during that time was an exceptional caregiver and a great addition to our family. She has extensive experience and knowledge working with various age group and assisted us during major transitions and milestones such as introducing solids, potty training, sleep regression and the famous stages of grumpy two’s.
In every role, she assumed full responsibility for the children in her care.
This included prepping and preparing their meals with attention to any dietary needs. Managing and doing their laundry. Organizing their schedules, activities, and transportation. Light housekeeping to maintain a clean, safe environment… sometimes even cooking for the entire family and washing clothes that have piled. Supporting learning through play, reading, and age-appropriate educational activities.
Mo enters our home every morning with a bright energy and kindness but also bringing a calm presence and a genuine love, being a supportive extension of us
When first speaking with the past families she worked with, they would describe her as dependable, nurturing, proactive, and grounded and I can attest to all of it.
If you are looking for an experienced and deeply loving nanny who takes initiative and offers long-term consistency and support, then you’re looking for MO and I’d be happy to connect you!
We are sadly parting ways with our incredible nanny, Anjali. Due to changes in our family’s needs, we are no longer able to keep her on, but we are beyond grateful for her care and love she has provided for my child. She joined our family when our daughter was just one month old, and she quickly became an integral part of our family. As our little one grew, Anjali was right there, celebrating every developmental milestone with us- from tummy time, first smile, crawling, walking, and so much more. She is trustworthy, respectful, and professional. We are so sad to see her go, and hope she finds a new family who will love and appreciate her as much as we do.
I wholeheartedly recommend our nanny, who has been an incredible part of our family for the past two years. She started caring for our daughter when she was just 6 months old and has been with her through so many important stages of her growth and development.
She is loving, patient, responsible, trustworthy, and extremely attentive. Her responsibilities included everything related to our daughter’s daily care and well-being, such as feeding, bathing, diaper changes, maintaining her personal hygiene, organizing and washing her clothes, and keeping her belongings and nursery clean and organized.
She has always been attentive to our daughter’s needs, creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. We have always felt comfortable knowing our daughter was in such caring and capable hands.
She has become someone very special to our family, and we are truly grateful for the dedication, affection, and commitment she has shown over the past two years.
The reason we are transitioning is simply that our daughter is now starting daycare. We would love for another family to have the opportunity to experience the same wonderful care we have received.
Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her!
