Parent Reference

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.

Parent Reference

Lorraine Elva, who goes by Marie, has been with us since Joshua was a baby. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. As a working mom she has made things so simple. The feeling of coming home tired from work and seeing the house clean, food cooked, and laundry done is something I can't describe. During work she would send us videos and pictures of Joshua in the park, on playdates and creating different crafts. We never missed out on a moment. When COVID hit, we had to unfortunately let her go since my husband and I lost our jobs. However, we still keep in touch. Every time Joshua sees her, he runs up to her and gives her the biggest hug. I highly recommend Marie, especially if you have a newborn or are new to motherhood. She treated Joshua like he was her son. I've watched them interact and she is compassionate, reliable and prompt. Please call me if you have any questions. I will be happy to help.

Lalia Wright

Manhattan, Long Island

English

Experience With: newborns, toddlers, preschool, elementary;

Availability: Full time, Desired start 2022-08-24

duties

Cook: Yes, for kids only
Laundry: Yes, for kids only
Cleaning: Yes, light cleaning only
Live in/out: Only live-out

Parent Reference

Our wonderful nanny Lalia has been with our family for four years since our boys were a newborn and toddler. We would love to find her a new full-time role with a family who will be lucky to have her. One of the many reasons we hired Lalia was that we knew she could handle anything. She has been a nanny for 15+ years and has worked for multiple families with twins as well as living through her own journey with twin preemies. Our instincts were spot on; she started with us soon after our youngest son came home from the NICU (he was a preemie born at 24 weeks and spent four months in the hospital) and has been a rock for our family from the moment she started. She goes above and beyond every day, not only for our kids, but also for us. We work full-time and depend on Lalia to manage our children's day-to-day life. This involves managing the complex schedules of my youngest, who has pre-school and therapy, along with that of my oldest who has his own activities and a roster of friends he always wants to see. She is proactive about planning their days and keeping us informed of anything we need to know and sending us pictures, so we feel like we are part of their day. She also doesn’t hesitate to let me know if the kids need something I haven’t thought of. I value her opinion and guidance (she is usually right!) She is loving, trustworthy, proactive, communicative, and cares about our children as if they were her own. We all consider her part of our family; the kids view her as a great role model, a loving grown-up and someone they just love laughing with. She gets hugs from them before she leaves every day! I could not recommend Lalia more! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you would like to chat live. I’m happy to sing Lalia’s praises!

Parent Reference

Our wonderful nanny, Claudine, is looking for a new family to care for after working with our family for a year and a half. In the midst of a global pandemic, Claudine was a steady, caring, consistent, warm and beloved presence in the lives of our three children - twin girls (2) and a son (6). Claudine managed the ins and outs of the busy lives of our family, balancing classes for the twins, school pickups for our son, playdates and adventures. Claudine has boundless energy and has made our children's lives so full of fun, taking trips to museums, the zoo and playgrounds all over our neighborhood. Claudine has nurtured a love of art and music in our girls and enthusiastically played with our son. She was mindful of developmental milestones, and was considerate, clean and organized. Claudine introduced our girls to healthy foods (she is a wonderful cook!), and suggested activities around the neighborhood that enriched their lives. We love Claudine, and we know that the next family who gets to work with her will have the same incredible experience that we did. Please contact me if you would like to chat more.

Sherry-Ann is our wonderful nanny of 7+ years who is looking for a new family. She has worked with us in Forest Hills, Queens, since our daughter was 2 (she's now 9!), and was there since the beginning with our son, who is now 6. As our kids are growing and our needs have changed, Sherry-Ann is looking for a full-time position with another family. Sherry-Ann is a very organized person, and our kids loved spending time with her. I had absolutely full confidence leaving home in the morning to go to work knowing that my kids were in good hands. And when the pandemic hit, Sherry-Ann was able to transition into helping our kids with remote learning, and working in the house with both of us (me and my husband) working remotely, without a hitch. If you are looking to work with an experienced nanny on a full-time basis, contact Sherry-Ann. I am available to answer questions you may have.

Parent Reference

Alecia has been working for us as a night nurse for the first 5 weeks of my daughter's life, and I cannot recommend her enough! As a second-time mom, I wasn't sure if I needed overnight help this time around, but after being home for 2 nights alone (and especially as a single mom), I realized that getting some rest was going to require some assistance. Alecia came highly recommended by the night nurse who helped with my first child and was super professional and eager to be of assistance once I contacted her when desperate and overtired. :) From the very first night, Alecia was wonderful not only at soothing my baby and getting her to sleep but: --super reliable and punctual --a baby whisperer! --both good at handling the baby herself AND teaching me how to replicate her awesome skills for getting the baby to sleep --knowledgeable about ALL the things a new parent, or second-time parent, needs to know --pleasant to be around and unobtrusive --professional yet very warm Here's a write-up from Alecia herself with her qualifications, etc. I can attest to this description being accurate and probably too humble. :) *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. *. My name is Alecia Edwards. I am a gentle, caring, nurturing, and understanding individual who practices patience, kindness, honesty, and compassion. I am a certified newborn care specialist with over 10 years of experience in newborn care. I am vaccinated against whooping cough, influenza, hepatitis, and MMR. Additionally, I have acquired certification in Pediatric CPR and First Aid from the American Heart Association. As a newborn care specialist, assist with breastfeeding, soothing techniques, assistance with baby laundry, organizing the baby’s nursery, getting the baby on a routine/schedule, teaching parents how to give a bath, recommending baby products, and offering emotional support when needed. I am very reliable, professional, and responsible. I use my knowledge and experience to ensure that I give the best care possible. My training, love for my job, and experience make me an ideal person to care for your newborn(s).

It is my great pleasure to recommend Katy as a nanny. She has been caring for our 22-month-old daughter since she turned 4 months old in February 2021. Katy is a reliable, extremely patient and affectionate person. She knows how to structure time well but is also flexible if we need her to change plans to better suit the day. Thanks to Katy our daughter was able to spend a lot of time outside everyday, either at the playground, the gym or school. Our daughter loved Katy very much, every time our doorbell would ring she would run to the door, being excited to see Katy. We didn’t ask Katy many extra hours but every time we asked she was always able to help us. Katy was always happy to help us tidying-up grocery shopping, cleaning up the kitchen and keeping the children’s areas tidy and clean. We feel fortunate to have had Katy in our home. She is loving, kind and warm. Her approach to caring for our daughter complemented our parenting style. She always respects our personal philosophies of gentle parenting while being confident enough to independently make day-to-day decisions regarding our daughter. We deeply value Katy’s contribution to our family. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to hear more about our experiences with Katy.
